What the hell shipping did they use, please? I mean I SEARCHED AND RESEARCHED and the fastest shipping to you guys I could get was AT LEAST a couple of days! Was it FedEX or UPS shipping or do you know know yet? I use the USPS for they are dirt cheap and just as fast or so I thought! Geez, after that, your Auto button, and Cruise button, you will be done, huh? Oh man,when it is all done it is gonna look sweeter than ****!

Mike, I'll call them for you guys in a minute and let you guys know!

 
Rep Power: 315

man, next day air?!?! jesus! how much did you pay for shipping?!?!

USPS rocks...you never have to pay duty! UPS sucks a LOT of cack...they charge $50 just to bring it over the border, and then you have to pay duty on top of that! fek that!

RBABE: the first week I had my car some lady tried to cut me off on the HWY. so...I honked the horn. I was so embarrased that as soon as I got home I went out and bought a new horn hehehe

now it's loud as heck, and doesn't sound so wimpy

it makes road raging all the more fun! hehehe jk

yeah, lately I just count to ten, and see if I'm still uber-pissed. If I am, then I figure it's worth road raging over hehehe

this is from the redliners forum, if anyone is interested i will post it on there, i wanna go get my sound **** engraved, sorry about the format but i just copied and pasted



We are thinking of offering free engraving services on a weekend. Looking for feedback on whether or not the interest is there. This service would be provided to anyone on this board who has aftermarket parts that they would like to have engraved with a vin#, lic# or the likes. The owner would have to have the part removed but we would engrave it. It may be possible to also have an officer on site this day as well to oversee and to provide suggestions/information.

All who would be interrested, please post with feedback. Date to be set later.

- Mike

I thought there would be some more interest in an event like this. I'm hoping maybe you guys are just to shy to say something. As for the "It may be possible to also have an officer on site this day as well to oversee and to provide suggestions/information." part of the origional post... we are just throwing out some ideas to see what you guys think. Everything is still open for ideas, so please post and let us know what you think and maybe some other ideas. All we want is... some feedback on this idea.

Thanks
Derek

As for the when: the time will be on a Weekend to be announced, the where: will be at our shop (87 unit B Bently Ave.), the how much: if there is enough interest... free for one weekend (note: only if the parts are off the vehicle). If the parts are on the vehicle then we will have to look at it and tell you whether it is free or not. We are trying to do as much as we can for free(on the weekend to be set soon). As for us having the police there for suggestions etc... we might not do that unless you guys would like them to be there.

Okay boys, 416 is a Toronto number so I'll let one of you take care of calling and verifying our year, please and thank you!?

Array-What do you have your gains set at for your system? I alternate between half and a hella a lot more than half. I of course started out way below half, but, that was not giving me the sex on wheels action I was looking for so I increased to half and I'm now at way pass half with deep and crystal clear sound. I was just curious about your preference to see what you be happy with?

tek-Alright, I guess I wouldn't be too terrified to drive on the same streets as you for you have your count to 10 system!

 
Rep Power: 315

player: adhesive == glue. it's just a fancy name. as for the box...it looks pretty sweet, but d00d, if you get a flat, yer fukked!

RBABE: it's all about counting to ten

man, have any of you ever been to "Baton Rouge" out in kanata at the centrum mall? holy cheezenuts! is it ever good! I'd definitely recommend hitting them up for a lunch or dinner.

it's a medium up-scale place, so expect some decently high prices, but hot dayum, it was great!


just had to share my experience...I love eating food hehehe

 
Rep Power: 564

Yeah Freddy and I went there after we got his car dropped and wheeled...pretty damn good and nice decor too.

 
Rep Power: 326

ok! i got my gauges installed i did that this afternoon, it took me a while cause in the diy it said to attatch a red wire to a red and black one so i did, but it wasn't working. It took me a while to notice that there was another red and black wire and the one i had taken was "pink" and black... well i'll tell you one thing, there ain't much difference between the red and pink. he he... anyways, it's done and looks sweet, but pictures are going to have to wait till tonight!

 
Rep Power: 326

the shipping was airborne express and it was lightning fast! but it was pretty expensive...

i don't think i'm gona do the auto button, i just might take it out... haven't figured that out yet, but the cruise, roof and mirror i definately want to do something with that.

 
Rep Power: 326

yeah, i go to baton rouge pretty often. Best ribs ever!!! It's my favorite restaurant. Everytime i go there i usually talk with the owner and the manager, when they are there. I'm a regular! he he

My Pioneer pemiere deck pushes pretty nice for a 50x4 so I really don't have to push my amp to hard. And considering I have 1 D-class amp pushing with a 1 Farad Cap I only have my gain @ about a 1/3. The only reason I'm @ a 1/3 is because 2 - 15's need a little more juice for what I normally like.

BTW - I LOVE BASS. So loud it could make you cry from the pressure, your hair stand up, your clothes...fall off!!!! lol

Clear Mid's , a touch of High's and a whole lotta boom boom boom!!!!! BEA-U-TIFUL

Freddy : Good job man. It's a freaking light show in there!!!!

Lemme know how those gauges look!!!!! And do they match the blue?

 
Rep Power: 0

Array-we have identical decks! I only have 2 12s, but, 2 amps to push everything (RF 200M and 500X). I wanted a cap or two, but, they kill the battery as you know and I already have a more than half dead battery and alt. because of all the **** in and on my car. I was going to go far an Optima and an alt. upgrade (if it didn't mess with my ECU), and upgrade grounds just for ***** and giggles to fix this prob., but, I'm not keeping my car for long so I'm not gonna do anything with it. Thanks for the answer, I'm always curious where peeps have their gains at. OHHHHH, I KNOW!!!!! Bass is almost the greatest feeling, sound, vibe ever if you have your system complete and solid!

 
Rep Power: 319

wow.....postwhoring at its finest!!! i love it.
array: yah so you can help me with my lights? Thanks alot gangsta!!
Tek: hope everything works out with ur ride.
freddy: yah youre interior is gonna be pretty slick! Hopefully the guages match the led's.
I just gotta question....who is RBABE?? Didnt mean to sounds stupid, but i dont know who you are!!
I cant wait to come back to my civic!! Im sick of this crap....i want my silver streak back!! But i need more horepower....its to daym slow!!
Player: that diy is gonna be tough to do with your stock false floor. Personnaly i would cut out a new one....raise it about 2 inches....and get thincker wood, that would hold the sub in place better. It would be a lot easier, and i think better looking.
rbabe: why does a cap kill you;re battery??? i though it was supposed to help it??

 
Rep Power: 0

Baller-the kind of caps I'm talking about make your bass pound harder and therefore puts the drain on your battery.

Who AM I? Out of respect for Mike (Pharoh), I'll let him answer that question for you if he wants to go there. Basically, he posted on a thread I started in our AZ subforum and we hooked up from there! We were talking on the phone last night and he said that he has almost finished your guy's logo and I should come here and check it out. So, I did and I asked him if I could post here and he said that would be cool for you guys aren't territorial like some geographical places can be. Does that answer your question?

 
Rep Power: 319

yeah forshure....but we are territorial...so GET OUT!!! hahah jokes...thats cool...so you are from arizona huh? Are there alot of tuners out there? Hmm i thought a cap was like a mini battery that stores power when the bass is lower and then uses it up instead of having to use the power from the battery.

 
Rep Power: 0

Baller-PUT DOWN THE HATORADE AND STEP AWAY FROM IT!!!!! Every other one of us is a tuner out here, honestly, it is flippin' fantastic. We are talking about two different caps I think! I'm talking about a capacitor.

 
Rep Power: 319

yah mee too....capacitor....little round long thingy with two connectors on the top. Maybe i dont know what im talking about!!

 
Rep Power: 0

Yeah', it is a tube like thing that can be 1 or 2 farad. It is a very common misconception that they help your battery, but, they kill it if you are running them with our stock batteries alone. Don't even sweat it, A LOT of peeps think they help the battery!

 
Rep Power: 354

damn, capacitors ruin the battery, array was the first person to say they help thim and i thought they did too, so i guess i will pass on a capacitor, anyways i dont think i really need one as i only have one 800w 12' sub, and by the way, i have no idea what u mean by "what do u have your gain at" can u please explain,

 
Rep Power: 0

No prob. player, your gain is how much you allow your subs to pound is how I explain it in the simplest terms I can. Does that help? It is actually how hard you let them pound.

 
Rep Power: 315

Player: hubcaps are a dime a dozen, just goto Honda and ask them for a replacement hubcap for your model car. then slap it on. thats what I did when i smoked a curb taking a corner too fast 2 years ago in a snow storm.

 
Rep Power: 315

LOL you don't have to worry about winters in Arizona though alot of people are hesitant about doing certain shiat to their rides b/c of the winters here.

fricken amount of salt the city drops on the roads is sickening!!!!! it gets worse every year!!!!

RBABE.... Pleased to meet you! Don't bother trying to pronounce my name, just call me Erik. lets keep it simple.

Array: no cheap shots bud

 
Rep Power: 0

Very pleased to meet you as well, Erik! Thank you soo much for the warm welcome! Yeah', Mike (pharoh) was talking to me about a winter car and I was asking him what the hell that was?! LOL! Our winter is basically your summer.

makes perfect sence, now how do i play with it, have a JVC deck

 

Jim you want to sell me your springs? i just need my car to be lower for the rims, i'll get the real deal later on, after i sell some more modems and have the cash. So for now i'm just looking for a good price on spings. imp:

 
Rep Power: 0

You want me to tell you how to play with it? Sorry, couldn't help myself on that one, it was begging for a smart *** response from me. Anyhow, I could tell you, but, Array could easily show you, just let him know you want to adjust your gain.
