      ill be in covert, thats where my wifes family is. its like a hop jump and a skip away from south heaven and kalamazoo is like a 30 minute drive away.

      ill only be going to shows with in about an hour or 2 drive of where im living for a while but if i stay there and dont go back to alaska ill be sure to get out to other comps further away.

      rather not answer why im leaving oregon, ill just say that family should treat family this way.

      Understandable man. Wish you best of luck. Seriously. (I have a bad family as well)

      sure you all will catch my typo but should say shouldnt and not should.

  2. after looking at iasca and usaci classes it seems like i have no choice but to wall if i want to run 2 15s... looking at meca classes now

      Ninja_v1.0

      well it seems you didnt look very hard because I know for a fact there are a few classes you can run 15's in for IASCA

    2. alaskanzx5

      Not when you take the back seats out lol. Can't fit a 6 cuft after displacement box in a hatchback focus in the cargo area as the require ments say. Then I kinda doubt ill be able to get into the low 50s it seems like people do in the classes that allow the rearseat to be taking out. 2 t2d4 and a single t1500.1 in a wall rather then a more typical box would have a much better chance.

  3. just got my t400.4 and punch pro 6.5 and tweets hooked up and playing. sound amazing, i didnt expect them to be so clean and clear sounding when they are spl intended speakers. cant wait to get some better rca's and run my 80prs in network mode.

  4. in oregon, currently at my moms in dallas. got 3 cars i need to call on with no phone to do so because my mom isnt here and has her cell phone. then i have to find a way to get t the cars for test drives.

  5. got my punch pro mids today, hooked them up for a full song, gin and juice. the start of the song where they poor it ito the glass i felt like i could grab the glass and drink it. i was amazed. anyone that is hating on them needs to listen to them first.

      Anyone hating on any driver that doesn't have anything wrong with it can't install shit! Glad to hear you like the mids, I really like the look of those speakers.

    2. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      yeah, there back in the boxes now. cant wait until i can get them on my t400.4. they really did sound good on just the 14 watts rms that the hu does with very limited hpf control compared to what im gonna be doing. gonna run the 80prs in network mode.

  6. have a nice new t400.4 birthsheet says 491rms total and 2 t2d415 sitting right here in my living room. cant beat a buy one get one free sale on a $900 sub. the only issue i have is im moving state in just over 2 weeks and so i wont even be able to hook it up. gotta get them shipped out with our furniture within the week.

    1. WastedTalent

      WastedTalent

      I swear, I had to read that like 5 times to see if you were selling or not. Lol. But yeah, that's the pain about moving. It'll be worth it though. Just wait.

    2. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      lmao, no way am i selling it. although i want to get another focus hatchback but with a manual tranny when we get down there. i have a 250 amp singer alt and im buying an adjustable regulator for it soon for my focus now so another focus is a good choice since i already have the alt. my wife however wants a sedan, trying to find out the trunk measurements of a 2000-2004 focus zts sedan trunk to see if i can fit 2 15s, i doubt it though.

  7. tired of waiting for my taxes, dam the irs for making us wait for just because my wife does college.

      most likely. "hey, it's day #20. it's approved and here ya go" lol.

    3. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      it would be even worse if they sent us an email on day 20 saying your refund was aproved on 2/20 and will be deposited or mailed by the end of the day.

    4. WastedTalent

      WastedTalent

      yeah lol. I went through H&R and got the emerald thing. Saved me like $30 total and all I'm going to do anyways is pay off a credit card and buy an alt (MAYBE IF ANYONE MAKES ONE!!!). But hopin weds/thurs, get a status of "approved" then money like monday/tuesday at latest.

  8. well, it looks like i will be moving to oregon around june-july kinda want to be there befroe the 4th. could use help fiberglassing my doors when i move down there.

  9. the wife wants to move state, i wouldnt mind doing so either but where to? she has family in michiigan, i have family in oregon. so many choices that i just dont know. would love to see my family agian, its been 7 years but i cant keep her from not seeing hers.

      Then it'd be a sacrifice. Someone isn't seeing their family, at least not often. Montana is closer to both states than Alaska, but yet still far. So if move to Michigan or very close? Ain't seein your family in Oregon. Move near Oregon? Won't see hers. Kind've a lose-lose situation. Think #1 thing though is job. Montana/Wyoming don't really have much.

    3. Neckbeard

      You also gotta think, if you move to oregon. You could get in a minor fight and she will use that shit against you haha. (although, im generizing most women, your lady could be cool about it :M )

    4. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      all valid points that make it so hard. i know i could get work in oregon and she could transfer to any state. she itsnt 100% on wanting to move back home to michigan because of family issues there but then again she has a lot of memories there.

  10. i am happy to say that i have been a member on here since dec 2011 and i have yet to get a warning. a freindly reminder but not a single warning.

      I haven't reported any of them because I'm not a raging douchebag lol. And the mods crack on me too, so they understand the humor in it.

      I love it :) This is one of the best forums on the net just because of all the jokes amongst the members... "I TOLD YOU TO MOVE THE FUCKING PORT!"

      why adam? why must there always be your buttsex stories in every part of the forums?

  11. more money to needed. tranny is slipping a little bit. i guess it realy is time to buy a parts car with a 5speed and swap parts around. now to find a focus hatchback with a 5speed for cheap.

  12. up at 4:30am still. cooking breakfast now for the wife who goes to work at 8am. gonna hate this but hopefully she will be happy. on another note, cant wait for tax return. putting a good amount towards subs, wood, adjustable alt regulator, and an smd-vm1

  13. so the wife has been complaining a lot about bs and work involving her manager hiring a friend for a manager position and some other bs. ive been telling her to bring it up with the regional and she wouldnt. well, she talked to her manager and got some of the issues taking care of. so much less stress at home from her now.

  14. just got rear ended, the lady gets out of her car asking if im high or if ive been drinking yelling that im a drugy. was saying i made an illegal right hand turn in a right hand turning lane into a mccdonalds parking lot. tol her how is it illegal to make a right hand turn in a right hand turning lane into a parking lot? her reply was your a drugy! ask her if she had a cell phone she said yes i told her to call the police and she took off almost hitting another driver

      im not gonna sweat it. eventually she will get what is hers anways. as for the police, o well. a freind of mine is currentlly going through training, hopefully she will be the turn around needed. im not saying all the cops here suck but from my experience with them the last 4 times in the last 2 years they have done nothing to help. they are to protect and serve the people but so far i have not seen them uphold to wait the y claim to be. i now there are some that do good but i just havent had...

      Is this possible? Im sorry for the shitty situation, but this would be absolutely hilarious if this turns out to be the same 2 people that hit each other.

  15. so i know i have a sensor going bad on my car just dont know what sensor. gas mpg is down to about 15per gallon, while in gear at a stop it has some shaking to it, every once in a great while when i first start up the car and go to leave when i give it gas it acts like im not on the gas at all. cleaned the maf sensor. i had a used tps sensor that came off the car that i put back on. dont want to spend a fortune replacing sensors. im gonna start with the what the smd forum suggests the most. t...

      oh i see.. so you have no check engine light but car still acting up

    3. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      exactly, use to only act up at random but now its all the time. you would think that if its effecting the gas milage the computer on the car would catch it but hasnt. im gonna hook it up to the scanner and watch the sensors as i drive down the road see if one has anything that looks off. my dad is a mechanic but the last time we did it nothing looked bad. the proplem has got worse since then though so maybe it will be easier to see.

      If there is something wrong, the OBD-II would pick it up.  Right now I have a random multiple misfire and a bad heated o2 sensor.  You can tell it's misfiring slightly.

  16. just had to completly reprogram my computer. lost so much info and pics... come to find out my brother inlaw has been downloading porn and music then putting it on his phone and deleting it from the computer. computer crashed but up and running agian. took a whole 3 hours. can you guess who will never touch the computer agian?

      lol, you call it sex ill call it fucking.

  17. the wife requested to work morning shifts so she has more time to spend with her family they gave her the closing shift. she called be complaining and crying about it but then as soon as she gets off work she takes off instead of taking the chance she had to spend with the family... how to say stfu with all the complaining if your not gonna do anything with the time you have with out being a complete ass? i hate listening to people complain but do nothing.

  18. so lately my alt belt has been slipping a good amount. no system in the car right now and my voltage sits around 13.9-14.3 with the belt slipping. every now and then i see 14.8-14.9 when the belt isnt slipping. replacing the tensioner pulley soon belt is new. then when ever i turn my high beams on (hid) or off my hu cuts out for a second.

      alaskanzx5

      i am, its my belt tensioner going bad. i have one sitting in my closet. im gonna go over all the wiring for the hid and make sure everything is good. ive already checked the hu wiring. its a new deh 80 prs, seems like whenever their is a quick voltage drop of about .5 or more it shuts off then right back on. actualy might be trying to get a 2 door hatchback same as mine but mine is a 4 door hatch. the body on mine is all beat up paint issues and its an auto.

    3. SnowDrifter

      Get a new belt and scrub off your pulleys with a wire brush to deglaze them ;)

    4. alaskanzx5

      belt is less then 5 months old lol. if needed ill replace it.

  19. been up since somtime wednesday, just gotta make it until 5ish when the wife gets off work. 2.5 hours to go, these will feel likethe longest hours ever.

      Yea that sounds like a good idea

  20. might be picking up an 01 focus parts car. has better paint and body. plus its a 2 door hatchback(mine is a 4door hatchback) with a 5 speed. only $700. all it needs is a temp sensor and something is going on with the idle air control.

  21. just order my punch pro 6" mids, should be here before x-mas.

  22. this wind is blowing like crazy, so tired of all this wind. had plans to tear the head off a 95gallant and replace the headgasket not to mention all the parts from the other galant that are still brand new that need to go on it. then i have a 99 grand am that needs the security setting reset. gotta get one of them up in running before the good weather comes for working outside so i can take the back seats out the focus and start building.

  23. off to take the wife to the doctors. so for this weak we have found out that she had disk deteration, acid reflex and today she is being tested for thyroid cancer. its been an eventful week. wish us luck because right now we could realy use it.

      thanks guys, the one thing im worried about the most is insurance is up on the 1st and neither of us qualify for insurance through the state. then medicare says we can only make 1600 a month in order for her to be covered. i dont see how that could be logical for a family of 5 making under 50k a year.

  24. feeling like x-mas already. slowly starting to buy more stuff for my new build  just picked up 16g rockford speaker wire, 60ft of it. it will be going from the t400.4 to the punch pro mids and tweets.

  25. no bass, for about a month now. music just isnt the same anymore. still have atleast 4-6months to go. what to do what to do?

    1. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      before you ask, i sold one of the 12's and have the other up for sale. waiting for tax return to get 2 15"s then i have to wait until warmer months or use a prefab box. at least 4 months before i get my subs, then up to another 2-3 months on top of that to build a box. my back is already starting to feel tense from the lack of vibration on it during my 5 minutes of driving before and after work.
