Upgrade Big 3, Alternator, Battery?
WastedTalent replied to xBevy's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
I think you'd be fine. I'm at like 1200 watts I believe, (could be a little high or low), and stock everything except battery and I just have dimming lights when the bass hits and of course the volume up. So the big 3 does help a lot, so I'd think at worst? You'd have some dimming lights. But your alt is better (mine's like 90 amps) so should be fine. -
Upgrade Big 3, Alternator, Battery?
WastedTalent replied to xBevy's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
Haha, the reason it seems like they didn't read it is because honestly, this is asked a lot. And they're pretty knowledgeable. For full potential, upgrade your battery, upgrade your wiring, and upgrade the alternator. I'd get a 2nd battery before the alternator but to each their own. As for the battery, most people will recommend what Snafu said. XS batteries. On the right they have a vehicle fit guide, not sure how accurate, but it recommends a D925. I'm not sure (I'd ask others on here, or wait for them to chime in on this specifically) if that'd be enough without a HO alternator. May need a bigger battery or more batteries if you wanna do 1500 rms. I'm new to the audio world myself so that's why not sure. I'm here to learn and give some advice on what I do know. -

Seriously. Put on the lights they have on the mirrors, put some lights in your grill? It's like a 100% authentic cop car. Lol. And I probably would pull some girls over if I had that setup. -

That's what I'm saying. I see you pull up behind me? *Puts on the good driver disguise*. Haha. You put on the bright lights they got? You got the undercover cop car man. -
Oh if we're naming sites like that, I gotta go with actually a local shop near me. stealthmachines. I found their site a few years ago, did some research and found maybe 1 bad review total about them so I placed an order. As Derrikm said, it's one of those sites that lets you pick what you want. Well, I did that and the actual owner called me and we went over everything on the phone. Have had the computer for over 2 years, maybe 3. Absolutely ZERO problems. But I went pretty high end and spent 2 grand.

I could rock that lol. It would really turn some heads at work if I wore it to hold my badge I vote for you to do it. DO IT! DO IT! DO IT! Also take pics of what those faces look like haha. -
Noob input here... but could he just not add polyfill? Tricks the sub in thinking the box is bigger. Would that not help with the box? Again, noob input so if I'm completely wrong, don't hate too hard.

EARTHQUAKES
WastedTalent replied to gt58's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
I was in the one in the NE last summer. Where I was, wasn't anything major. But I thought I was on some serious drugs or something. Saw our A/C unit move then the wall move. I was talkin to someone and they didn't notice anything. That just was an added effect. Truly think if/when socal gets a big one, it's gonna rip it off and become an island eventually. -
Internation shipping?
WastedTalent replied to mcgothigan's topic in Second Skin Sound Deadening and Automotive Insulation!
If not, get a friend in the states. Pay him/her to order it and to ship it to you. Way more of a hassle but if you want it, do it. -
Ported box for 2 sa-8 v2's, need help.
WastedTalent replied to aznlunatic206's topic in Subwoofers / Enclosures
Question. Maybe I shouldn't ask but this forum is about learning so I will. What are you planning on doing power wise? I'm curious cause you say the power will be around 500-900 watts. The RMS of the sub is only 500. If you went with the 10, it'd be 600. So why would you put up to 900? -
http://www.ebay.com/...=item3378a84ef9 I have basically the same equipment, except used. It was my first build, or well.... setup. I'm trying to sell it to a friend and since it is used, I'm just curious what you guys would offer it for to your friends. I was thinking $130. I mean discontinued model, used, ect. It's definitely not too shabby for those that aren't sure about the car audio world, like if they wanna get in it or not. I think I could get more but I'm trying to help out a friend as I've had this stuff just sitting around, could use any sort of cash. Any help would be appreciated.

I call fake. Just sayin. Or else that's the shot of everyone's lifetime put together. -
And considering you said you're pretty much broke, you don't have the money for em. But don't worry, think most of us are like that. Save up for 1-2 big things and wait until we save up again.

looking for some new rims.
WastedTalent replied to KiKaZz74's topic in Wheels and Tires - The rubber hits the road here!
a grand ain't bad. I just looked up some rims and tires for my car. came out to 1135. I like the fact I can get rims I actually do like for $150 a piece. Not stoked on the fact it's just as much for the flippin tires. Lol. Good thing I got other things to work on the car first! But if he can help you out, I wouldn't expect a big drop to like 700 but maybe 950 or so. But again, he'll be able to tell ya, not me. As far as rims, Idk. I've actually never thought about that. I know places take tires but what about rims? I don't know -

WastedTalent replied to KiKaZz74's topic in Wheels and Tires - The rubber hits the road here!
I'd call to find out how exactly they do it. I'm sure every place is different, even within the same chain. But I'd call and they'll probably say to just bring them in, they'll look at them and give you a price of what they'll give you for em.
