  1. Also silver solder is your friend, gets to be expensive tho per roll.
  2. this right here! I also always measure my height to my spider landing and mark a line around the former with my calipar to give me where the spider needs to be on the former before setting the coil in the gap to get the spiders even with the coils shimmed out. 1 extra step but works much quicker imo
  3. got ripped off a few too many times I take it? lOl You need some good test tools like a oscope, dmm to test various components. A great soldering gun would be a wise investment (not a cheapo sold at most stores). I know usually if you remove all mosfets from the board, they amp should usually turn on and not still be in protect, if its still in protect then the issue is something besides the burnt mosfets.
  4. We have used my amps in my buddies CRX and ran the 4500s at .18 per amp for burps from one NSB.90 battery under the hood and 40 runs of 0/1 gauge wiring (20 pos, 20 neg) with the car off (so no alternator charging the battery), and was good for a high 156.X db to a mid 157.X db legal. It was a Street B setup for db drag.
  5. Welcome to the forums Theaudiomaster43 Take some time and look around and see what this site all has to offer. It wasn't just started yesterday, lots of great songs, build logs of systems, and bass heads! Pretty pointless thread but I do see you are new to the site. As others said, theres HUGGGGGGGE lists in the "tunez" section, and Im sure the ones you already posted are posted, but if you have something thats not on the lists, go ahead and list what you got that you think people will like.. So before more people come in here talking nonsense like it has already started, Im gonna close this thread down.
  6. If your numbers are correct, now do the math for price. lol is the hugly added cost for the 0/1 beneficial to gain a whole 25 sq mm?? ummm NOPE! However, depending on the brand 0/1 wire the poster would be using would make a huge difference since some brand wires like stinger tsunami has less wire/more casing compared to something like Knukonceptz fleks, Kicker hyperflex, RF wiring, or XS Power wiring (which are considered over sized 0/1, but still sell for the same price per foot retail) and see if the extra few hundred for 10 runs of tinned ofc 0/1 is worth it VS a 3/0 welding cable that is pure ofc copper with no tinning. Unless you have 1500 amps( five 300amp alternators, assuming you use 5 runs for positive and 5 runs for negative) worth of alternators under your hood. 10 runs of 0/1 wire is not practical when you will never be able to use the wire anywhere near its full potential amperage load, while spending more money for more wire, and having to run all the extra wire.. So again assuming 10 runs of 0/1 are being used as 5 runs of positive, and 5 runs of negative equaling 10 total runs (at least Id hope that is the way he is thinking, otherwise making it even more wasteful to not upgrade the grounding). 5 runs of 0/1 wire is capable of 300 amps of current (maybe a bit more depending on brand wire). 5 X 300 = 1500 + amps of current on the high side and again, the other 5 runs being used for negative. 3 runs of 3/0 wire is capable of well over 500 amps (closer to 600 amps of current), but we will lose the low side being 500amps per run of 3/0 just to give the 5 runs of 0/1 a fighting chance.. 3 X 500 = 1500+ amps of current on the extremely underrated side, 1800+ amps of current on the high side. Also the cost of the wire will most likely be a lot cheaper because it is not branded car audio wire and have a huge inflation price due to the brand name. It will be quicker to install due to having less runs, and less of a inconvenience trying to find room for 10 full runs (if it its ran underneath). As I said way above, the brand of the 0/1 wire your thinking about plays a huge role. EDIT: Now if you are driving a Honda CRX and its a burp only car for Street A or B, then your best off getting as many equal length runs of wire as possible since your are limited to 1 800 cubic inch battery underneath the hood, and the car must not be running when you are competing in the lanes. but otherwise I dont see the benefits of 10 runs at all, unless your giving the wire for free.
  7. If you have 3 alts, Id say you would be fine with 3 runs of 3/0 pure copper welding cable vs 10 runs of TINNED copper ofc wire. 3/0 wire is going to also be able to handle well over 500 amps of current per run (and we know a single alternator is not going to produce that much current). So if you had 3 alts, and did 1 run of 3/0 positive and negative from each alternator to the rear battery bank for a total of 6 runs, you should be more than happily over killed. Also be sure to have each run of wire all equal lengths (even the grounds), to keep the flow of current even along all 6 wires. Other wise the current will travel the wire with least resistance which would be the shorter wires. And yes it does matter, especially when your in a single battery setup with over 40 runs of 1/0gauge wiring.
  8. I was never a fan of integrated / onboard video cards....
  9. Already was up, and I set it to private to be the bigger man.... anyways, no need for this to be talked about again. thread locked.
  10. Honestly, dont know who put it on. I started it on my hoe, and did my buddies car that was, then I asked some other friends, and they wrote it on. I actually have a video of all the cars at the comp with it wrote on. All in different writing from different people.
  11. That would be something you would have to ask him.
  12. The white eclipse has a single 15 inch woofer, on 1500 watts, in the hatch. and is not walled with 8 12s. Brads mazda was not even at that show, nor went against this car... Here is the car brad build and brought to this show. Again, this car wasnt put on the meter til after the comp when people where starting to leave.. As you can see everything was starting to get tore down, and I was running the TL so he could test it quick. I was trying to be nice. Neither of the cars went against each other, but you can tell me who had the higher score...
  13. Everything should be compatible with everything else. I myself can not stand Gigabyte, I know they have some pretty big issues catching fire on the newer mobos. Id rather get this an Asus or Evga board. Asus for $149 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131770 Asus for $199 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131702 Evga for $209 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188097
  14. Im almost certain you are limited to the zv1 coil in that motor. All the other model motors (zv2, zv3, nightshade v2) have a bit more girth to the coil. Im not sure about the zv3, but the zv2 and nightshade v2 are way to big of coils to fit the gap. The zv1 coil can also be used in the nightshades v1 as well and the DD9500 motors. You would be able to use whatever cone he has for it, same for the spdiers. Spiders from the zv3 or the nightshade v2 would work. As for power handling, it would come down to power being clean, and a correct box. I dont see why it wouldnt be able to handle 1500ish rms tho. here is a picture of the zv1 coil.
  15. Looking for a USED Sundown 100.4 (revision D) for a buddy. Cash in hand. What does anyone have that are or thinking of selling?? Post pics with your price. Thanks.
  16. Topic Locked and all info deleted! I recently recall your other topics on a couple other forums being closed and even this site for selling the "bass head bands". This would now be your 2nd offense here ( I maybe a new mod, but I know the forums quite well). You are where not a vender on other sites or here. Please contact Snafu about becoming a vendor on the site to sell your items. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/user/2591-snafu/
  17. I guess I will say Happy bday bro again in this thread too. LOL
  18. another drive by about 2 and a half blocks away. That makes it 2 now in under a month in my hood...

      Sounds like were I grew up at in Alabama.If you got kids probably would be a good thing to try and move.I've seen too many times the wrong people getting hit by stray bullets.Take care and be safe.

      he just needs to keep it under the bed where he's hiding.

  19. No VS threads allowed. read the rules.
  20. Not sure what was all said in the thread. But for the best results that work. Take 2-3 aspirin before you goto bed the night of your drinking. You will wake up the next day headache free. I dont drink too much, here and there I feel pretty old pushing 30, but after a night where you drink 6shots straight of tequila and multiple beers, I can wake up the next day feeling fine, and all I did was take a few aspirin and a glass of milk or water.
