  1. Ill have to get a pic and a video in the car of him getting I.... hes not an online guy.... more hilbilly/hippie ish haha its a blend

    He bought a doner car that had thousands in parts

    Fuckin huge intercooler

    full 3.5" ish sxhaust things huge, big turbo

    a arms

    coils, then he modded the suspention to stay in stage 3 for better handling

    Full engine managment

    Original 5 speed, so then he got another just incase they will handle the power quite well!

    The list goes on lol. Things badass, with the JZ MOTORS line boring is a must not to many people in the usa can even do it I think only 6 people bought the propper mount to bolt the engine down, with the line boring they are all exactly illigned, rather than a normal v8 which each cyliner can be a tiny bit off, with the straight motors they need to be perfect to obtain good balanced numbers :good:

    Black on black with black interior and wheels... its sick, I put a tline 8 in the back for some traction weight

  2. I wish I had a pic of the supra I see everyday lol

    My brother in law built a badass one 600hp 450-500 at the wheels right now before it looses rpm signal for some odd reason

    Shits fast as fuck 5speed manual conversion, got new suspention standalone computer for the tuning etc

    U can get 400 hp from the second gen supras with about 400$ u need new injectors and the lexus maf sensor and u can boost up to 15 psi on stock motor everything.... past 400 hp u need engine management and $$$$$

    He's prolly got 10-15gs into it, plus countless hrs assembling the motor, swaping the trannys and everything else from his doner car

  3. I have to agree with Cortez here. Your batteries will rest at 13.1 at teh highest, voltage above this is supplied by the alt. Once your amp is drawing more power than the alternator can provide then you get into your battery reserve. You have something hooked up incorrectly if you do not drop below 13.1v, because I can guarantee that the 5k will draw more than 100a of current.

    this is the "proper" answer!!!

    sorry im so hard on him its just like god damn..... 5$ plus 5$ doesnt make 20$ shit if that was the case id be fuckin rich

  4. this is fucking amazing :lol2:

    u only drop to resting voltage of your batts is this correct?

    so your saying that u dont drop into the 12s at all this this correct?

    if you said yes to both of thoes

    um ur a dumbass sorry but if you agree with both statements above, then ur amp is only pulling less than 140 amps........aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahhahah

    thats the funniest thing ive heard all day aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahhahahhahahahhaa

    thanks for the laughs man :good:

  5. lets do the math

    500 amps of draw

    and u get 40 for your car and o wow 100 for your stereo

    this instantly means you ARE UNDER RESTING VOLTAGE OF YOUR BATTS so what do you batts rest at? i bet you all the money you got that they dont rest at 13.8

    i have 1 5k playing right now, i have a 270 amp alt and 4 batts and i DROP BELOW 13.8 dont give me that bullshit!!!!

    y dont you tell us voltage at full tilt! Do you even have a voltage guage?

  6. ^^^^hahaha yea it was pretty fucking wild man wish i had a video of me running pealing out must have taken 6 jump leaps in the same spot before i started moving, and i ate shit right there on the next step, but damn i made it down there fast hahaha, i know fires hot, electrical fires sometimes hotter but holy fuck that head-unit was scorching thought i grabbed something out of the oven, craziness!!!!

    just talk to alpine, you have to file a complaint and then the supervisors look at them, should get a email back monday, hopefully they dont get mad i opened it up.... either way it still would have caught fire

  7. no way if u look in my build long u can see they are insulated real nice everything wired away from everything else

    im quite confused, wonder if it was just the deck or something with the car, car seems find deck is fucked lol so it leads me to believe faulty deck but really ???? that seems very odd

    especially for it to malfunction and basically catch fire

    yeah just checked out you build log. sweet amp rack btw. but yeah that definitely seems like the deck malfunctioned. you should email alpine the pictures and let them know what happened. your lucky you caught that fast because it could have definitely ended worse.

    yea im super lucky about that.... car was parked under a huge front deck, so if the car went up the house would have been up aswell, i got plenty of fire extinguishers but its just not something that i wanted to do

    thanks, i want to rebuild the amprack from metal and actuator it so its a little more "pleasing" to the eye and i dont have to curl the +60lbs of amps each time anyone wants to see the subs or amps

    im thinking about emailing alpine but i got it off craigslist, soooo i donno if they will even work with me, its always worth a shot...

    saw a pioneer 880prs in the for sale section. sorry to hear about that deck fire though.

    i might have to check that out, im leaning towards a screen tho, ive always wanted one might be about that time.... im just glad my amps and car are ok

  8. and to the pics

    2012-07-13_14-50-54_76.jpg

    yes i know there are exposed wires i just yanked the fucker out, it was burning hot i wasnt going to unplug everything!

    2012-07-13_15-15-21_818.jpg

    the rear rcas

    2012-07-13_15-15-53_505.jpg

    1 hr later this is the temp of the h/u im in Santa Cruz so its not above 68 right now and all my electronics are cold to the touch... well except this on :lol2:

    2012-07-13_15-38-03_735.jpg

    the fried under belly on the cage

    2012-07-13_15-38-11_681.jpg

    one more close up of the back of the rcas

    2012-07-13_15-38-19_794.jpg

    RIP to my deck lol

    so on the bright side some lucky person needs a CDA 9887 face plate i have one forsale :good: or anyone selling the deck and no face plate let me know hahaha

  9. Just tested the amps

    they both play

    I took the headunit apart lookes like a mini bomb went off right behind the rcas

    And I can't get this damn burnt. Electrical smell off my hands

    Well glad the amps are ok, bummed on my 9887 thoes are great decks

    My buddy ray thought it may have lost ground searched for a ground then used rcas to ground..... when I looked at the harness it all unburnt but its just hard to tell, I don't wanna go in there for more than 10 sec smells like shit

  10. Pics in a few

    I was just inside my house upstairs walk onto my front deck, and smell burn electronics, drop everything in my hands run to the railing to see smoke comming from the dash of my car

    I don't think I've ever ran so fast, jumped in the car and uggghhh my alpine cda 9887 is billowing smoke and retarted hot

    I proceeded to grab the deck rip it out like a theif and threw it outside, burned my fingers in the process

    The rcas are melted all the way back to the amp in the back and the plugs are melted into the back of the deck

    All I got to say is wow thank god I didn't have a car fire today

    Anyone ever had a deck catch fire

  11. Ill make this easy

    500 h/o alt biggest u can get (id buy one for 350, get a batt for 100 and wire for 100)

    500 subs (2 15s, 1 18, maybe 2 18s if u can find a great deal)

    500 amp for subs like u said crecendo sundown 3500 etc

    Bam ur outta cash, and u gotta build a box, sooo

    that's y its a tight budget

    I got 2k in just amps

    1k subs

    1k electrical

    Xxxx in mids and highs amps

    and barely do a 150, granted its from a trunk but that is a big goal with that budget!

    There's a few guys on here who got their 150 with a 3500, might want to look thru the member builds get some ideas before u just go blow money on something u might wanna change ur mind later on
