Bass4Lyfe Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Time to give this a little bump, Alternator is pulled off the car and has been shipped to MECHMAN Car sits at the shop for a week or 2 until I get the alternator back, then the car is drivable. To-Do list before car is "Done" 1) Buy (2) D3100s and wire them in spare tire well, in parallel, with buss bars connecting the 2 2) Hook up the alternator, it's a 250 3) replace starting batter with biggest powermaster that'll fit 4) install amplifier 5) carpet trunk with OEM carpet, clean it up, etc. 6) Install line driver for amplifier I have made a decision to not play it at ALL until EVERY one of the above things are done. I wanna make it "done" and have little to no voltage drop so as to not blow the alt again, and i also wanna hear it the 1st time at its best, with line driver and everything So my best guess is it will be slapping within 1-2 (before or after) days of Christmas I CAN'T WAIT ~Matthew 1998 Toyota Camry XLE V6 3L (1) ScyTek Astra 4000RS-2W-1 2-Way Remote Start Alarm with Shock and Proximity (1) 20% Tint All Around (Gately Audio) (1) 250 Amperage HO Alternator (1) Big 3 Done In 1/0 (2) Kinetik HC2400 Power Cell (1) Alpine IVA-D106 Receiver (1) Peripheral Video Bypass Device (4) Alpine SPS-17C2 Speakers (1) Alpine KCE-422i iPod Control Interface (4) Sheets Dynamat Extreme; for speakers (1) 10 Square Feet Hushmat (Trunk & Rear Deck) (4) DC Audio Level 4 15" D2 Subwoofer w/ Level 5 Coils (1) Wall Built By David, Tuned to 32 Hz (1) Rockford Fosgate T40001bd Amplifier (1) Stinger 1/0 Wiring (2 runs of + 2 runs of -) (1) Stinger Volt Meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forevrbumpn Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 thats a plan, and the right way to do it I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

dwright27 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 being as you already have kientik 2400s and you can get more 2400s brand new off of ebay for like $300 shipped why not just keep the kinetiks? i mean no doubt the D3100s are GREAT batteries but seems like a 180 to me. 2006 F-150 4 DC XL M2 18's Walled Daily Driver XS Power 4 DC 3.5kw Team DC Team S.P.L.
