    91 toyota mr2, working on new setup, limited space.

    Last night I read on here about reconing a woofer and decided to mess with a seized Rockford 8" I had laying around. The magnet had shifted. I realigned it and it works. Sounds like a weak Walmart sub, but it still hits again and sounds ok, kinda cool. I never knew u could fix a seized sub that...

    91 toyota mr2, working on new setup, limited space.

    i looked at reviews on the amp and everyone says it seems like its under rated. my friend has 2 mr2's just like me and has the same amp in each of his and is running 1 of these in each of his Infinity Reference 1062w 10-Inch 1100-watt High-Performance Subwoofer (Dual Voice Coil)--Computers &amp...

    Do I really need a HO alternator?

    ok i read that entire link and it all makes much more sense now, but i do have another question then. at the end and in your post "the big three" is mentioned. what exactly is the big three? is this like bigger alt, bigger battery, and bigger wiring?

    Do I really need a HO alternator?

    Now I just feel dumb, I really wasn't trolling. I'm not really big into audio but I understand a lot of it. A capacitor rely doesn't help take load off the alt? I have checked with a multimeter with and with out and the voltage fluctuates a lot less with the cap and I stopped blowing up...

    Do I really need a HO alternator?

    @DCtC so i put that i have a 91 mr2 with a 93 camry 3vzfe and he has a 2001 camry 1mzfe and all three of your links only supply to 2002 and higher 2.4l 4 cylinders and custom alts that cost more than i paid for my car. so those are still not viable options, compared to a $50 capacitor that...

    issues with alpine cde-hd137bt headunit

    Ok I figured it out, I don't understand it but I figured it out. I had to remove the component crossovers for the tweeters. The components are infinity reference. I hooked them up with out the cross over and over all the radio sounds a lot louder and clearer and no longer breaks up. Only thing...

    Do I really need a HO alternator?

    why would i be a troll? all i basically stated is that the regulators in our toyota alt's are the real part to worry about and that a capacitor alone is enough to stop them from failing. i know for a fact that if he has a 01 v6 camry that he is running a 1mzfe and mine is a 3vzfe, basically the...

    issues with alpine cde-hd137bt headunit

    so i just bought this alpine cde-hd137bt headunit and wired it up. nothing out of the ordinary, the common wire colors and manual to instal it. got it all wired up and its sounds mediocre like a really generic headunit. the main issue is that the fan on the back of the unit didn't work at all...
