I'd swear I saw that car before.

I forgot to add Viper Audio to my list of old school car audio equipment I have worked with.

I still have my Viper Alarms advert banner hanging in my garage.

It's possible. A lot of my builds have been in magazines, but This one wasn't magazine quality. However, he did take it to all the car shows in Bay area.

I still have my DEI Bit Writer from the late 90's. I updated the chip in the early 2000's, but it's totally obsolete now. I also have my old Viper Pit book. The Viper Pit was a install training course. I almost taught at that school, but it didn't pay much, and it sounded really boring. I really enjoyed the install side of it.

Old book plus bonuses.

I had 4 of the MTX RT154's in an isobaric BP4 in the 83 Grand Marquis from 1995-2003. I also had the 8's on the front doors.

I got the CD's and book for free with the purchase of the 6 drivers at a convention.

The car blew a head gasket and I donated it to Volunteers of America. We had a garage sale afterwards and the enclosure was the 1st thing sold for $200 to some guys in a Ford Explorer.

10 inch Adire Brahma MK1 from around 2001. It's one of the first ones sold by Adire. Painfully loud even a sealed enclosure.

What year are those Hifonics amps?

 

[Jimi77 Premium Member]

Focal Utopia 6w4311 mid bass drivers. 8 ohms. These are from around 2003.

What year are those Hifonics amps?

D@mn, the online manual doesn't say the year. I think the American Warrior Centurion X and Taurus X are early 2000's.

I traded a RF Punch 150 and a PG M25 for the Taurus X to put in my wife's 1995 Neon Sport Sedan. I wanted a high current 4 channel amp with built in crossovers back in like 2003 or 4.

I got the Centurion X off ebay for like $50 when installed a system in my 2000 Toyota Solara SEV6 in 2020.

I still have the amps. I took them out my 2011 Crown Vic LX when I upgraded the whole system. My car was supposed to go to my son's and I buy me another Panther platform. I really wanted a Lincoln Town Car. We'll around October last year, I spun the car taking a corner in 1st gear (2.73 LSD rear axle) and hopped a curb. The car ended facing some trees in a decline. After backing up and trying to go up the incline, the right side rear quarter started bouncing off the trees. I got out before the cops left showed up. I got most of the dents out. The steering is off. I got new front suspension that a got for Xmas. I ended up buying my son a 2010 Grand Marquis LS Ultimate Edition in November. I'm actually working on the audio system now.

I'm in the trunk. Osu lost to Michigan that day.

He's with the sub and amp.

He took the doors apart to sound deaden and the metal clips are missing for the front door trim pieces that I mounted Infinity tweeters on.

 

[BP1Fanatic]

He lives in Cincinnati and I sent the pics to ask him where he put the clips. He made ziplock bags for the 4 doors screws. I have a feeling they are at bottom of each door. I need to connect the battery and roll the windows up so I can run a magnet pole along the front doors.

Do you still have that CD? Should rip it to FLAC and share it!
Pretty funny that they are (were?) on BASEline Rd. Could have mistyped it BasSline and the mail would still arrive.

Who had one of these, or the separates?
Guilty.
