international 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2007 lol I know exactly who you're talking about. hahaha DING! thanks for playing you have been awarded 100 points for the correct answer. However I think it is a black Honda? It had chromes thats for sure Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rogan 7 Report post Posted December 6, 2007 However I think it is a black Honda? We'll settle on a charcoal Honda. I've heard the stereo in that car, one of the louder music bass systems around (not talking test tones). I know one guy who was physically sick after being in the back seat for a while. Not my kind of stereo system but the 3 piece sub box is a work of art. For everyone else we're talking about CSS on Wairau Rd. One of the few shops in Auckland I'd recommend I do a fair amount of business with them and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Their good sales guys know their stuff, don't feed you with marketing bs and they give sharp prices. Looks like International got the bad egg on a bad day. Rapid is a mystery to me. It has a great reputation and caters to the affluent market yet the brands they carry are decidedly average, I surprised they don't carry some of the high end brands like DLS and Focal to cater for their 'money is no object' customers. It's almost criminal what they put into $80K+ cars. Alpine stuff I can accept in those value cars, but Soundstream and Sony no way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PBOY23 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2007 (edited) i have just put in a set of sony xplod 4inch rear speakers 5.25 speakers coaxial ones or what ever in the front not a great deal in diffrence highly would not recomend these 4inch for the rear not very loud / in that ported box you will not fit anything larger than the 4inch , it is not commpletely sealed compared to factory which is 4 an a half so i keep going in search of what is best iv been told that good 6inch speakers work nice in the rear also in my coupe the doors have mid bass speakers an tweeter how could i up grade the mids can anyone please help i want to do the whole d I Y thing or am i better to go to a shop Edited December 12, 2007 by PBOY Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve R 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2007 (edited) don't bother upgrading the mids in the doors, just get a quality set of 6.5inch components and they will do fine. i haven't checked out what the space behind the speakers is like yet, but this is the road i will be taking soon. i have heard people can fit 6.5s in there. would also recommend sound deadening behind the speakers to get the most out of them.

PBOY23 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2007 yeh neal was saying the fronts you can squeeze a det of 6.5 in the front im not sure about the rears what to go for its got me f**ked, these sony speakers are a piece of sh*t that have i woundered by it set me back 87$ from paralel for all four Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve R 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2007 sony is crap. save your money on the rears and spend more on the front, you sit in the front, do you go to a concert and stand with your back turned to the stage? so why would you want to listen to music from behind you? if you have a good set of fronts you wont notice that you dont have rears Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PBOY23 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2007 so say if i buy a set of soundstream 6.5s then i should be right ? there are two models i see one component the other coaxial but with component sound dont you have to run high power component 6.5s with a amp say etc soundstream lil wounder amp ?

westy 614 Report post Posted December 12, 2007 6 1/2" infinitys in the front. Tweeters in the doors. Scuse the dirt. Theres no way they would have fitted behind the standard kick panel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Metal speaker cutout needs a couple of mill adjustment to fit in baskets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nobimmer 694 Report post Posted January 6, 2008 I just put the 6.5 inch earthquake components in the foot wells. No butchering needed and could still leave the factory sound deadening and cover etc on. Just had to cut the bonnet release cog a bit. Am no working on getting another set of components for the doors which I will run off a seperate amp. Also got some JVC 6.5's in the back which required spacers.
