Looks very wide...

Good point. That comment about the weetbix cards sounds like a personal recollection...

Any pics?

Yeah I owned a MR2 GT about 10 years ago. Fun car to drive - mid engine rear wheel drive. But as pointed out it's like someone vomited crap all over this one! I reckon there might have only been 5 cars at that Auto Salon... Aside from the air dam and that weird bonnet hump I really don't understand putting a sub behind the engine in the boot. Can't think you'd hear it unless the car was stopped and the bootlid was open...

Mmm

That car looks awesome!

Resistance was still low with rca's removed.

You gotta love a nice warm bottom :-)

All plugged in and one unplugged. I think I see where you're going... With at least one plugged in ground is provided by the amp right? Bugger. Too late now. 1 amp and all it's cabling removed.

Pico fuse seems fine - low resistance between rca shield and headunit chassis. Noise is both front speakers... If I fade out the fronts i still hear it. No noise if I pull the front rca's off headunit. Swapped rca's between sub amp and front amp for cable fault - no change. Tried one channel from the headunit at a time - noise from both. Confused... Suppose I'll go back to running the fronts off the headunit and pull the amp out.

Saw this on 2Fast2Furious the other night...

You mean this Rogan? You and Neal both suspect RCA's so I'll check that out. On that front I'm running the rca's on top of the glove box beside the engine management module (at least I think that's what the box is...) to the top of the passenger kick panel and then along the passenger sill alongide the left front speaker wire - is that ok?

Bags on the sun visors if the hinges still hold. Mine are going floppy... How much?

Amps are wired to the battery in the boot via a distribution block. Ground is to the main ground in the boot also. Assuming I get it going I was going to ditch the rear speakers - just leave the speaker grill in place and let the sub sound out the parcel tray holes. Having just put the interior back together I don't feel like taking it all apart again to lay the drivers side cable down the passengers...

Nice history conversation going on in there also.

Ok so I finally finished installing some gear in the car (e30 coupe): New Pioneer headunit 600WRMS DD Amp Sub in box 50WRMS x2 @ 4ohm amp Lots of wiring... Sounds fine with the engine off but horrible with the engine running. I'm guessing the noise, which is coming out of the drivers kick panel front, is due to laying the speaker cable down the drivers side near the main power cable? Has anyone run cable down the drivers side without issue or special cable? I really only amped the front speakers (Infinity Kappas) as I had a 2 channel amp lying spare. If you have to run all the speaker cable down the passenger side I might flag it... Any helpful advice appreciated. (Noise is constant tapping - no change with volume control)

Gotta love those Hamilton chicks... Nice one dude.

Damn that's ugly!

Makes you wonder... Link

Audit... It's official - telstra is a little slower.

That MX5 your's too...
