New to car audio, need suggestions on system

[Cool J]

Well this winter break i plan to put a system in my 97 nissan maxima. here is what i have researched so far and have come up with:

headunit: JVC KD-SH9750 plays mp3s/wma/cd $240, most i wanna pay is $250

sub: infinity perfect 12.1D $140

fronts: infinity 60.5cs components

rear: uhh..dunno...suggest me something

mono amp: JBL BP600.1 $190

wiring: what do i need?

sub enclosure: infinity recommends a 1.0 cubic feet sealed box...where can i get that?

2 way amp: JBL P180.2 $135

do i even need this or will the deck be sufficient to power the components

what else do i need? nothing is totally decided so i am up to suggestions for any of the parts. i am mostly looked for the best price/performance and my budget is around $800 but i will spend a lil more if its a very noticeable difference. going for sq not spl

look into http://www.ikesound.com for all that stuff u wanted. should be cheaper, u dont need rear speakers so dont worry about that. wiring, just buy a walmart wiring kit and yes, u will need a 2ch amp for ur components, otherwise u wont get the most out of them.

im sure theres better stuff for 800bucks but someone else will have to do the research. all im gonna say is edesigns K series

yeah, i was getting all my prices from ikesounds. i will need some new rear speakers because my current speakers are all bose which are different wiring and run only off the bose hu.

u got me wrong. u dont need any rear speakers. not even the factory ones, dont worry about not hooking them up. a goog set of comps will give u the rearfill u need.
