  1. I heard from kicker today as well. $76 to have my amp repaired. Will pay that tomorrow, and it's on its way home. :^
  2. Update... Getting windows tinted Thursday. 5% all around with brow for $100.
  3. First of all, let me state that this will be a looong build thread. Most pieces in this build will be done piece by piece. Some things may be ordered together when money allows, but for now, it's piece by piece. Also. with my truck, i just bought. it will be getting some attention to. This build is going to be done right, and right the 1st time. No going back and adding the big three to make my lights not dim or stupid shit like that. The scheduled plans as of now for the way the build will unfold is as follows. 1. Upgrade cranking battery. 2. Upgrade Alternator/Big 3. 3. Two runs of 2/0 power/ground. 3. Gut car, and sound deaden. 4. Alarm with 2way pager. (Undecided) 5. Build Carputer. 6. Begin buying speakers, amps, & woofers. 7. Box build will be very similar to Meade's before theft install. Basic Rundown of what will be going into the car are. 1 Kinetik 1400 up front, 2 Kinetic 2000's in the trunk, & a 200a Alternator. Second skin entire car. Floor, dash, doors, roof, trunk, & trunk lid, everything. Run the 2 runs of 2/0 power/ground. Alarm install. Complete Carputer 2 IA 20.1 @ .35 load per woofer. 2 Fi Audio 15BTL dual .7ohm all options, Custom enclosure @ around 8cuf after sub/port displacement. Isolating the trunk from the cabin with front firing subs, and port glassed into the spair tire well. The mids/highs are undecided upon at this time, but whatever it is will be powered by a Kicker KX800.2 running at 2ohms, on 4 sets of components. I am open to any suggestions anyone may have at this time. As of today, the very first thing on the list has been completed. The new battery, So without further adieu, here is the 1st phase in "Project Civic Go Boom". Kinetik 1400 is in. Note that the terminals on there now are just temporary as the stock ones were too large to fit over the posts. At the next phase of this project which is Alt/Big 3, these terminals will be changed. Dmm reading... 12.86v Dead 14.34v Running Here are some pics of the car... Also, I RMA'd my kicker 800.2 that will be powering my comps (still undecided on those). Should have it back in aroud 2weeks, then I will be ordering my alt. (Granted I don't buy anything for the truck)
  4. Hmm. similar to what i will be running. keep us updated on the score,
  5. i took a week 3 weeks ago, ut my boss forgot to report it on the weekly time sheet that she sendsin, so i didn't get paid for a week. . It's all good though, i had it covered. That lil extra change woulda been cool tough. Need to get my windows tinted on my new truck.
  6. oh, and no door popping vids? Also, on the door poppers. Are they for the inside only, or do you plan on shaving the outside as well?
  7. I play with mine a good bit, but most of the time, i am serious.
  8. Resale is not what i'm interested in. and i don't want this to be taken the wrong way or anything, but if i go to a car show, and 2 OLDER vehicles are sitting side by side. One is completely custom top to bottom, and the other is well maintained, and fairly original, it has more style to me. The truck is old, has low miles, i want to keep it mostly original. Now i will do some custom work to it. carputer, kick panels, ad what have ya, but i am staying original on as much as i can. With the exceptino of removing all badging. I have a project in my civic for a little boom.
  9. If i do it will be the 94-98 style interior going in. I may not even put big wheels on it. I may just paint it back original color, and put some mags on it. 16's with wide tires. It's a toss up at this point. It's got such low mileage, i kindof want to keep it stock. BUT then there's this other part that knows how awesome it would look with some candy paint, and 24"s body dropped to the right spot.
  10. Here are the pics... Stock, the way i bought it. Stock tires Here are the pics of what i did today (removed front license plate holder, added newer wheels & wide tires, and cleaned the shit out of it.)...

  11. a dumb vid would be cool as long as we see the door go "eh eh"*. * "eh eh" = think back to big tymers - stay fly.
  12. i bet it makes a noise, but loud? no.
  13. i know oh well. i just noticed i haven't taken a pic of the mileage. I'll get that thursday when i put my tires on it.
  14. I will look u a price on ebay, and whatnot, then judge by the bumper, and i'll knock some off, and pm you a price shipped.
  15. Could you guys imagine steve, and groundpounder2k2 working on one car together. Oh my Glass.
  16. Well. I tried to hold my excitement in til Thursday, when i am off, so i could get some good pics. but i just have to share. This truck is going to be simple. I will do my exterior mods, paint it, add a system, then some big wheels. I went to look at it, and couldnt resist it. Had to have it. Super low miles, and is in perfect shape. Oh wait till you see the engine bay. 1991 Chevy Silverado 68,000 Miles Motor = 350 1 Owner (Elderly Couple) Interior is Perfect. New Exhaust from muffler back. Sounds clean and tight. Not loud. Body has some hail damage on roof, and hood. Plans for the truck are. 94-98 GMC Wheels with wide tires (Thursday) Add 94-98 GMC Grill with billet insert. Add aerodynamic mirrors. Add Roll Pan. New Factory Hood. (Hail) Roof Repaired. (Hail) Remove all molding from body. Paint Candy Apple Red. Then Carputer with 6.5 comps in kicks, and 2eights sealed behind the seats. Pure SQ Install Withought further Adue...(Will take some better shots Thursday.) Also, its wet b/c of rain, not washing. The inside was vaccumed, but not cleaned/armoralled. Thursday will be the day.
