  3. Lowering Springs

    in Suspension and Brakes (4x4, street drops) - Lift it, Drop it..STOP it!

    I would recommend raising the rear up instead of lowering the front. Just my .02 You can purchase some air shocks by Gabriel that should bolt into the stock rear shock location.

    If you are determinded to lower the front, you may have to have the springs cut or have some springs made. You could use some springs they use for hydraulics and cut them down instead of the stock ones. Hydraulic springs are usually a little more stiff and should handle the over all weight of the car but, will change the ride factor. Cutting a coil off and having it turned will lower you down but, may be either bouncy or bottoms out in the front. May also not be able to align the car again.

  9. Sony double dins. Good or bad?

    in Head Units-Processors and Eq's

    I am going to chime in on this one because I recently came close to purchasing the Sony Unit but, went another route based on other factors. I pinned the story.

    I was willing to give Sony another shot based on speaking with the rep at C.E.S. in 2010. Openly admitted their Xplode line was "Junk". Obviously I agreed and because of his honesty listen to what he had to say. They wanted to make an attempt in going back to the day when Sony had their "ES" line. Now I have never been a big "Sony" fan but, the "ES" line was some nice equipment back in the day. The two double-din units are well priced around $500 with bluetooth and Navi built in (I think). I know when I was shoppng for double-din those were criterias I was looking for.

    Now I am die hard "Alpine" faithful and I run Alpine in all my rides but, in today's economy I just could not afford to do it at the time when I was looking into buying a double-din. I ended up with a JVC but, was close to buying the SONY and would of bought an Alpine if I could have.

    Not sure if this was much help but, do some research for sure and please post in the double-din review. Hit up Ray from AI and see if he still has that Alpine double-din for sale.

  17. sq build question

    I have some questions before i put in my .02. I read 4 3 way set ups, is that correct?

    I heard good things about Dayton but I have not heard any. I run 3 way set ups and have done both active and passive for crossovers. There are both pros and cons on both but, you will find all true SQ guys run active and majority run electronic crossovers.

    Multiple amps,although a pain can still allow you to have front rear and sub control. I ran two four channels on my front stage alone and still maintained full control. Left and Right as well.
