Ok, My install is now almost complete now, just need some half decent components to complete things. Budget is set for £100 - £140 so as you can guess choice is some what limited. Im tempted by the following :- Alpine SPR136A http://www.evilice.co.uk/images/19190.jpg or Audiobahn...

Really hoping someone has had this problem, or can suggest to me what it is :- Coming home last night I noticed that when reaching 6,000revs I hear a rather strange noise. Its hard to describe it really. If i was to try and advise what it sounded like, it sounds like a noisy vibration or...
