Well everything is in at last. I spent my laborday weekend putting everything in my new Lexus IS300 and I must say it was time well spent!

I put in an Eclipse 8445, Focal 165V1, PPI 600.4, and a bunch of Damplifier in just the front doors....for now

Pics:naughty:

Im happy with the sound right now. I have my gain about 75% and havent crossed them over yet b/c they are the only speakers in my car at the moment. No rear stage yet...Once I put some 6x9's back there ill drop out some of the bass going to the Focals...

 
I'm going to make an amp rack that will sort of hover my amp a little bit so it will stay cooler. If you look behind it in the pic that hump you see is the top of the gas tank so im gonna have to get creative....cant drill into that:crazy:

 
Yeah, with classes and X-country starting again it was tough to find a good two days to set aside. I smile everytime Im about to get into the car b/c i know how good its going to sound once i turn it on //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 
How much did your parents pay for your car??
Though the sarcasm is cute //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif I paid for it. I invested my money in a CD that matured at the end of the summer and went out and bought the car I always wanted.

 
love IS300s, considering one for my new car, how do you like it?
i was thinking about that same HU as well.
I love this car! I found the elusive manual ****** IS300 and man its great. Smooth, linear power band, solid body and interior.

Not gonna lie though...the car needs boost.....my 2JZ wants boost baaaaad

 
yep, if i got one it'd have to be a manual, as they arent really that fast.. my car could probably keep up, but yours would handle much better than mine stock for stock..

 
You lie ! your not leaving the VQ family. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif
well, its either that or an 02 6spd, don. yeah, it might be tough to leave //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
