    JLJunkie's Retarded Budget Build

    Update on the theft situation...... my neighbor's garage got hit the same night that I did. He and his family were on spring break so nobody was home. He owns a carpentry business and his garage was STACKED with expensive woodworking tools. All in all, the thieves made out with around $10K in...

    No sound from subs?

    This can't be real...... Besides wiring the subs to the power/ground.....are those two 30A fuses and a 2A in the amp?? How long are those drywall screws that you used to secure the external fuse into the factory fuse box? I'm really hoping you didn't use anything over an inch.... If this is a...

    Old school-Need sub Specs Orion XTR

    edited: not confident in my recommendation so I removed it. I can't find anything for the 90's model on the Orion site :(  I found specs for the year 2000 xtr line but I am not sure if it's the same for the model you have. I'll keep digging and re-post if I find it.

    Where is the firewall on a 2002 Chevy Malibu?

    The firewall is literally the "wall" of metal between your engine and cabin compartments. From inside the car, it's going to be up underneath the dash. Are you saying that you have found a hole from the engine compartment into the cabin, but you can't find where it comes out inside the car? You...

    Help choosing an amp for my sub.

    What's your budget? That's going to be the biggest factor in what gets recommended to you. There's a lot of amps out there that will do 250rms @ 4ohms. Also, don't worry about getting an amp that's rated higher than the RMS of the sub. You can get a larger than necessary amp so you have some...

    New install subs shutting off.

    I pulled up your subs based on the BP1204 printed on the terminal, which leads me to assume you have the Dual brand 12's in a bandpass enclosure. To answer your question, the box is already wired to be run bridged since the 2 subwoofers only have 1 terminal on the enclosure. You could run wires...

    JLJunkie's Retarded Budget Build

    I'm about 99% sure of who did it. We've only been in the house for a little over a year. The previous owners (as we found out after we bought it) were a bunch of criminals. Their kids are on a first name basis with the local sheriff because they are in and out of jail so much. Their oldest son...

    What song are you listening to right now?

    Not sure if anyone in here is a fan of I Prevail, but they just dropped a new album recently. It's got some pop vibes in some of the songs but I'm digging it. They've added a lot of synths/bass drops to their songs so it's nice to have some heavier stuff (nu metal if you will) that makes the...

    Thieves are the worst, work for your own shit. Lo and behold, an APMI-2k popped up on a local FB sales group that I am on. I still have all the paperwork from my amp so I've got the serial number right here. I notified the cops so it'll be interesting to see if they attempt to make contact with...

    JLJunkie's Retarded Budget Build

    Well, some ******* broke into my truck last night and stole my APMI-2K. The box must have been too heavy because they tried to pull it out and gave up. I also had a couple of budget amps back there that I was testing for the $150 challenge, they stole those too. This is particularly troubling...

    Seeing all these older cars brought back memories. For a couple of years, I worked in my friend's rat rod shop and helped build some pretty badass hot rods. Here are a few that we put together 1939 International Harvester on bags. 350 chevy under the hood. dubbed "project Low Mater". This was...

    Old School Roll Call

    Definitely not what it used to be. i remember where there would be thousands of members on here at any given time, it was hard to even keep up with all the posts.  I used to frequent Realm of Excursion back in the day.....that place is a complete ghost town.

    Car Audio Fails picture thread

    lmao, I just got one of those emails from Wal-Mart that said something like "Shop More of the Stuff You Love!". It had a picture of a Sundown Audio Sub with a $15 price tag in the body of the email and I thought "wtf? how can they be selling for that cheap?!?!". I click the link and here is what...

    good god, the exterior didn't look too bad but that floor pan is fuuuuuucked. When I was living out in Colorado, you could find all kinds of older cars that weren't rusted out (especially down in NM). Now that I am up in Michigan, I can't find anything that isn't totally rusted out.
