Now I know there is some work going on this....

I wish your instagram updates could be on here....

Instagram is my quick pic site...i can post there from my phone. I am not that good at posting here from my phone. I wait till i get home for that

of course the wiring on the voltage regulator will be proper tomorrow....today i just sorta rigged it up to make sure it was all gonna work first. And it did! Tomorrow will look nice and be legit.

Hey steve whats the story behind this car? How did you get?

Glad to see the Tercel back to life. Question, is there any chance of the power and ground arcing on the inputs on the amps? I just noticed how close they were together. May be a stupid question but was just wondering.

With "low" voltage you can pretty much be touching, as long as you aren't touching

When the vehicle is off (alternator not turning) and the batteries are all just sitting there, the 16v bank rests at about 17v. The front 12v battery being connected to the rear batteries with the step down modules leaves it at a constant state of 13.9-14.2v. I didn't think that was a good idea to be like that all night long so i made my own isolator out of a 80a relay. So when the car is switched ON, the relay allows the 12v (D3400) to charge as normal off of the step down modules. Once the car is turned off, the connection to the 16v bank is broken. Also, knowing there will be some heat generated on those modules, especially after i hook up the 4 channel, i decided to add some fans to the heat sinks. They will be monitored and automatically cooled off with the SMD TM-1.

So i got that started, it all works GREAT! I decided it was time to get a head unit for the system. I will probably make a podium of some sort so the wires are going to be ran into a removable molex plug that i can detach when not in use. Here is just a couple pics...tomorrow i will be working on it some more of course.

New deck. Nothing to high end, nothing too shitty. It should get the job done nicely. I even got 2 of them....one for DGAF Tercel and one for the 90' Accord (needs tunes bad, has nothing).
