that takes skill, skill that I one day hope to have. I fucking hate working under the hood. It's like open heart surgery but a great skill.My room mate's girlfriend saw me taking out my alternator to get it fixed and saw me trying to fix the timing belt on my vehicle..... her response was "why don't you just take it to a shop?" ..... fucking pisses me off. If I can fix something by myself instead of being charged out the ass to have a simple job completed then I'm going to do it myself.
my other room mate was getting advice on doing a system on his brand new ford focus when my room mate tuned in and said "just take it to a shop and get it done right"..... WTF did you ever see how great of a job I did on my car or are you fucking blind and that ignorant
my rant ends here. long story short I couldn't fix the timing belt because the idler pulley had gone bad and I didn't have proper tools to fix it.
I trust no shop guys at all for the most part, took my dad an hour of argument to have my timing belt done at a mechanic when I get the money instead of having a good friend of mine who's good with cars to do it, damn tensioner made me change my mind.
I kinda don't trust mechanics cause I feel like when I have something fixed, they are gonna fuck up something else, so they force me to bring it to be fixed, so they make more money.
Audio shop guys, loololol, I wouldn't even let West Coast Custom touch my audio, I'd be like "no touchy of the audio"
car audio shop guys....... I like my local car audio shop, they carry a lot of fosgate stuff and offer reasonable prices. Boss man claims that my amp won't (which I am) run at a .5ohm load.... and he said that doing 4 terminal posts for a single sub won't work (which is). I think you had 4 terminal posts too and I'm sure you're having no problem whatsoever. I explained that with box rise the impedance will rise making it more stable, which it did.I offer to anyone who wants a system to help them out with installment and suggestions. my last build I got a pioneer touch screen double DIN, JL 12" and hifonics amp, and 4 6.5" fosgate punch speakers for $500. I do pretty well when it comes to deals
