  1. Bass updates comin for the Ram

  2. Been a while, but im back. Just had a week off from work and got some updates to the Ram to post coming up. Gonna need some help with the finalizing of the numbers on my box. Gonna try to find some baltic birch later on today, its fuckin 4am and i been wreckin my brain crunchin numbers for this box. 

    So whats going on guys, what'd i miss?

     

  3. Quick question about grommets.

    1. 06RTCharger

      06RTCharger

      The larger side of this grommet goes into the engine compartment side of the hole right? So its not sticking into the interior so much, even tho the 4/0 will still be a big protrusion but atleast it can bend a lil unlike the grommet.

      Whichever side has an o ring is the side thats toward the engine bay. I think the nut side. Do both sides have an o ring?

      The oring is removeable like a washer. I ended up doing it the way i mentioned, bulge on the exterior, nut on the interior

  4. Just when i think im gonna get to finish running wires in the Charger floor.........

      Then i didnt  like how those metal connectors/housings would *clink clink clink clink* around, so i added some stuff to stop the clinking.

  5. Noob question. There is a blue/white “remote turn on” on both harnesses. Im not supposed to connect thise two together right? I can use them as individual turn on sources?

      Havent finished the goal yet of laying all the second skin on the floor and running the wires. I dont wanna update it till im done with laying all my secondskin on the floors/roof. Almost there tho, i just been kinna caught up with tryna get another ride so i can leave my charger at home and just work on it without having to worry about having to drive it to work the next day. Having only a daily driver wasnt cutting it. Been shopping around the past few days and tonight i got me a big brother for the charger today. So stoked.

      Some Bstock snuck into my damp pro 80sqft case smh. Could see through to the silver foil when i peeled the waxpaper off. So far it was only on two sheet that i noticed. I can deal with a few mishaps, but if theres a bunch more ill ask them about it.

      I havent lost yet in bitcoin lol, its still going. But damn its droppin in value like crazy. 

  8. Damn! ????????????? Eagles SMASHED today, stoked, team looked really strong today. I hope being in Minnesota later wont have a negative effect lol.

  9. Woke up and almost shit myself. 8am i was about to get ready for work and my phone gets an emergency alert.... It says “EMERGENCY ALERT. BALLISTIC MISSLE THREAT INBOUND TO HAWAII. SEAK IMMEDIATE SHELTER. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.” That was a fucked up half hour to start the day off. Turns out some dumbass hit the wrong button SMFH.

      I heard on the radio this morning the person who caused the error has been reassigned. Not fired, reassigned.

      Because they wont release info on who exactly it was, all the employees there are getting death threats. 

      Also Japan just did the same thing, had a false nuclear missile alert text sent out. BUT they corrected it within a few mins, its took the alert system here 38 mins to release the “its a false alert” message.

  10. Bitcoin falling pretty far down, kinna want it to stay lower for a while so i can buy some before it goes back up lol. Its around 13.1-13.3k right now.

    1. Skullz

      Spend it on a rig to mine instead of buying it.

       

  11. Two days ago RussianMinerCoin RMC, the cryptocurrency was less than $1 for a coin. This morning it was 22k per coin and right now its 29.9k. Tf is going on with that? Whoever bought those a few days ago has now probably made a huge change in their life.

      From what i could gather with a quick google. Bitcoin mining was just legalized or something in russia. Like couple days ago. So im guessing once that news broke, EVERYBODY that heard it started scooping up all the RMC they could, it was a very limited amount of RMC availble i think, so that made it even more wanted. 

      That company RMC is going to be building a huge mining facility and anyone with those coins will get a percent of what they mine. Something like that, thats what i read. Shits insane tho, wish i wouldve been in on the news. 

    3. Hotdog

      It will probably dump hard leaving people jumping on the bandwagon late with huge losses. I have seen groups out there that specifically pump up crypto coins to dump on the people that jump into it trying to make a profit. 

    4. 06RTCharger

      06RTCharger

      Yup, if u watch the graphs u can see it lol. 

  12. FINALLY got a my hydraulic crimper coming in! Lol fk after 3 months its finally back in stock and got my shipping confirmation and its already in hawaii on honolulu, im stoked. Crimper should be badass. Its a Temco TH00034, should be here monday. Finally get some build log progress coming soon. 

  13. If you signed up under my USI-tech link, hit me up in pm. So i can explain more lol i figured you’d ask a few questions before u sign up. Pulled the posts of the link so that doesnt happen again lol. 

  14. Bitcoin over 10k right now, wonder what its peak in its lifetime will be. I always thought u had to buy a whole bitcoin to be in it, but u can buy as much of a bitcoin as u want. $5worth, $20 worth, whatever. Shits pretty interesting. So fucked that hawaii is banning some of it. Bunch of old basterds over here lol dont wanna let the new tech in. 

    1. Mr DeeBeez

      Mr DeeBeez

      I have been really tempted to buy some. Thought about throwing $200-$300 in and seeing how it went. I keep kicking myself when i wait a week or two and see how much i could have made already. Just hard to jump in and know what to do. Dont wanna screw up and lose some money some how. 

    2. 06RTCharger

      06RTCharger

      I know exactly what u mean. What scares me is the security of ur “wallet”. I dont know what wallet is the most protected and reliable. Ontop of that the Hawaii laws and shit. But right now BTC is about to hit 11k i wish i had some money to throw down on it. I threw everything i had into this USI-Tech

       

  15. Won a couple bucks on my team this weekend. Taking all that and eveything i have available and taking a shot on USI-Tech. Good or bad outcome, im seeing where this road goes. 

  16. SAnyone familiar with TEMco indistrial? Kinna late to be asking about the legitimacy of this company lol but i ordered a hydro crimper from them a couple weeks ago. Havent even gotten a shipping tracking number or anything yet and no replys to multiple emails. Shipping was supposed to take up to 7days.

      Honestly i dont know, i just read the details about that temco one and it seemed high quality and electrician grade (if thats even a thing). They sell a cheaper one too thats like $70 i think and a couple other cheaper ones. I wasnt really asking about the tool its self, just more about the companys track record. Just because i wasnt getting and responses from them, but i was able to talk to a rep already and sorted it out. 

      Whatever makes that crimper cost more than their own other crimpers, is why i want it i guess. I had another post asking about why some hydraulic crimpers are $30 and some are well over $1k even some $3k. Theres got to be more to it than just name brand, because even under the same name there are big differences in price. Its overkill, but thats fine with me, for $370 i dont mind. It seems to be worth alot more. You can look up TEMco TH0034

      I checked em out. 12 ton crimper. It may be an ergonomic thing. Or made in one country versus another. But in the end, both products still compact wire and lugs until they are basically one solid material. Theres a pic in my build log where i re-crimp an old hammer-crimped lug. Crazy difference after a proper hydraulic crimp. I'll post another one where i cut the lug in half to show the copper inside. You cant even see individual wires, its like a solid block of copper afterward.

      All good though bro. However you like to spend your mula. Just trying to add reassurance to the fact that many of us have used the $55 version with undeniably great results. Hopefully you get what youre looking for.

      Thanks man, ill go check ur build out for those pics.

      Same here, it seems like if its not 1 thing its another thing always throwing shade in my way and pushing me off the easy path in life..

  18. USPS ghosted me lol, didnt hear any knocks at the door or door bell rings. Went out to check the mail and theres the note, missed delivery need to pickup "tomarrow" at post office or schedule redelivery. Lol fk i was excited to see the amp today. 

  19. I can finally use this site at work again, its been boring af without the forum during my breaks lol. Maybe starbucks unblocked it? Lol

      Lol yup its helps to take ur mind off things. 

  20. Can anyone play songs from XXTENTATION without blowing their speakers??? Lol all his tracks sound distorted AF.

      He does that shit on purpose. Horrible, and he makes horrible music 

  21. Does anyone know what amp class the linear power 4.1HVS is? I see their new amps say they are a/b. I couldnt find any details of what class the 4.1HVS is from the sites manual or anything.

      Skulls so AB amps were being made before D? Yah maybe thats why its not specified. Id assume any lp amp was AB but i didnt see it specify a class anywhere so had me thinking.

    3. baron_of_bass

      baron_of_bass

      I have never used any LP amps.

      Someone on here really likes them. Cableguy was his name. 

      I'm about to start my first build with higher end equipment. Wish me luck, going for more of a true sq build. (Morel and mosconi zero line amps for my sound stage.)

    4. 06RTCharger

      06RTCharger

      Yah i seen ur build log post. I was considering the zero 1, its pretty close to what i want but id need two of them to be happy about it. But 6gz for two amps aint happening lol not letting myself do that. I have the as100.4 and as200.2 for my 3way front stage. So would be pretty nice to have all mosconi, but nah i cant drop all that on two amps just for 2subs.

  22. If ya'll got a family and kids, dont ride streetbikes/motorcycles.Everyone i know/knew that rode bikes passed away in a bike accident. And they all had kids. Sucks man.

      Sorry for your loss, man.

       

      If you live life worried about the what ifs you're gonna have a boring life, just my 2 cents.

      You could die of a fall while walking out your front door, doesn't you ever will.

      Just like anything else in life its a calculated risk.

      Situational awareness is key, along with being seen by drivers so they know who, and what you are, i will ride with my high beams on so a person does not mistake me for a car that is farther away than i really am. That one change has completely stopped the "OMG i didn't see you" quotes people use, cause they are used to looking for cars and not motorcycles. Listen, i may piss some people off with the use of high beams, and my life is more important than your discomfort for a few seconds, and i see other bikers doing the same thing as me and have no anger towards them as i fully understand what it means to ride as safe as we can.

  23. in Either i didnt use the dmm the right way or its more complicated than i thought lol. My dmm read 11.5 v on the battery while car completely off. Figured the battery was fine and something technical was wrong. Scheduled an apt at the dealers and a towing from AAA. Aaa said they could come take a look at it and see if they can help any. They hooked up a charge and the car started less than 10s after they hooked it up!? Lol wtf. The guy said the battery was really low, around 7v!? He said his machine simulates the car starting up or something, thats why my dmm read 11.5v but his charge machine read 7v??? Whats the deal wih that, can someone explain how that works just so i know a lil more. 

    His machine also shows the alternator is fine so he thinks i mustve left a light on or something and thats why it was dead in the morning. Glad thats sorted out for now. Hopefully thats all it was. How do i make sure my battery is good? If it went down to 7v is it gonna be able to hold this charge? After a few mins of being hooked up it was back to 12v. seems super fast .

      Yah i was checking out that video. Apparently the cheap walmart dmm i got wont be good enough to get accurate readings, testing the probes on ohms it was all over the place and high. So just gonna wait till im off to go get a fluke dmm. I also got a battery charger  so ill be charging the battery the checking for a parasitic draw. Hopefully its that easy to find.

      I can tell you right now that dodges of that era had a shit load of wiring problems, ask me how i know......

      Mine ended up being a bunch of faulty wiring underneath the dash.

      Take it to a GOOD auto electric shop and let them figure it out.

    4. 06RTCharger

      06RTCharger

      Thats messed up broke lol. Yah ive gotten several "recall" notices over the years and had to take the car in. The best shop i think i have around here is the dealership. I have an appointment with them on Wednesday if i dont figure it out by then.
