a good service done by yourself, a damn good clean, hoover inside, full tank of fuel and a good blast knowing that your car is 100% mint!

there carbon mirrors, not gloss black :) i posted this in the detailing section. I know its not really detailing as such but at the end of the day, detialing is cleaning a car and thats what ive done! my word some people will have a moan about anything!

carbon cup spolier yes £300 + new spolier light = NO! tried to keep it all working with each other as G4Z pointed out :) carbon goodies in certain places :) Plates are carbon too, most std font i could find! not sure why people dont like them they look stock to me!

yeah i guess some silvervisons could go in the back, will drop into halfruads n pick some up next time i pass :) cheers on the comments everyone, much appreciated :)

cheers chaps :) only minor mads but they have a big effect imo :) this is as far as im taking the car, cant see me doing anything else with it :)

Well since the clio has had over £500 quid spent on her this month in the form of new rear discs n pads, service at GDI and a few touch ups from the bodyshop (plus a scratch that i did, oops!) i thought why not finish it off with a full going over, so i got prepared on saturday and here's the...

i have the highsports on my 172. uber stiff, if i were buying again i would spend the extra and have the adjustable damping becuase on some roads its crap! far too crashy, not much travel, on a nice smooth road they are great. country roads are a nightmare. go on a road with a poor road...

40% installation, 40% setup, 20% kit imo! To be honest mate, no-one on here can tell you that ANY speaker is rubbish. If you like the sound of it then thats what you like. Just becuase some random guys off the internet didnt like it doesnt mean you wont either. Doesnt matter weather its a £30...

To be honest mate, no-one on here can tell you that ANY speaker is rubbish. If you like the sound of it then thats what you like. Just becuase some random guys off the internet didnt like it doesnt mean you wont either. Doesnt matter weather its a £30 speaker or a £300 speaker, That the thing...

good man! cracking set of gear you have matey. drop in a graphic eq and you will be have a superb sounding car. Just be extra generous with sound deadening. more the better :)

not sure if i posted the finished articel of mine:

W6! best sub money can buy imo! perfect all rounmder, hard hitting bass but uber cool qaulity! would have these over any sub, which is why i bought two! nice design of the build, shame the trim finish isnt so good. tidy that up and its great! love howyou worked the brace. what amp have you...

ive always made a point of declaring mods on my cars, after i crashed my supercharged saxo i claimed. because i informed them of the mods they gave me £6000 on a 51 reg saxo! i proved what had been spent on it and made a decent amount back from the loss. all those who dont declare stuff then...

do you find your fk's noisy as such! rattly at all?

im with them now. messed up my reg too! other than they dont cover you on a courtesy car from a garage they have been fine. cant see me using them again though

lol @ 3 grand!!! who actually buys them! id loved to know! just scanning through loads of old pics to try n find what i had! found pics of the genny's but not the JL's

cant remember of hand, was 3 years ago mind. JL isnt the be all and end all of comps you know. Yes they may be good in your eyes but remember that a lot of car audio choice is down to personal preference. So the fact that you think they are amazing doesnt mean that i will too. Marmite kinda...

used to own a complete JL system. Several JL amps, several JL subs and of course JL comps! was never hugely impressed.

totally disagree, yes very highly rated but more for subs n amps really. for the comps not so much, £60 is a good price though :) ask yourself. will you personally tell the difference between a £60 speaker and a £120 speaker??? that will then help you decide on what to buy

i run the 230 slx rainbows, very good speaker

cheers nick, yeah she's had some subtle changes. This is not to most people's taste especially with the track obsession (which ive been thru with my charged saxo) so this is a nice comfortable daily driver. never used on track so why not have a big stereo! did my tesco shop today, £70 worth...

no thats the ecu! remove the tank behind that. just pulls up n off. if your using 4 gauge its incredibly difficult to get it through, but persist it will go eventually. anything smaller is very easy. anything bigger n i'd look for other means!

yes true but that sound reflection is ideally unwanted. or majority of it anyway.

lol, sorry to hear that mate ^^^ tompoms, you spotted it all mate, its all 100% removeable and i can restore the boot to std within minutes. There actually isnt much to this install. a bit of clever thinking and its worked nicely. I do think about resale values when i do things to the car...

I agree with parts of this... yes systems can be disjointed when just having 2 front channels playing and im a big fan of having some rear fill but imo (of course) having a full on set of comps in the rear doing what the fronts are doing is too much, I believe a perfect balance is either just...

Apologies to the guy whop i said had 6x9's on the rear shelf, they look distinctly oval in that picture! But even still, anything on the rear shelf is a waste of time. Even more sub with a sub in the boot.

oh and the 6x9's on the shelf says it all really! id put money on the car being super top end heavy and the sound stage being real far back. youd need to set the fader nearly 100% forward to ttry n cancel it out but that defeats the point of having speakers in certain places!

bad idea, will drag your sound stage right back, unless you sit in the back whilst listening to your car i suggest you dont fit them like that

cheers, took me a while, well worth it. i wanted to work it so that if i wanted to take the install out all i have to do is remove power earth remote n rca's from the distrubutors. All which would take about 1minute. Then the whole lot will pull out, saving me from disconnecting the whole lot...

yeah i run them for at least 30mins everyday. the hint sink on majority of amps is actually the cover inself. so having the majority of it on show means it can disepate heat quite well. Also behind the angled uprights is just fresh air. So the rest of the amp just sticks out the back. I'll...
