I LEARNED'D something today!

[snwbrdr435]

I'll take em. :P

$50 with free shipping

[Razi]

So, I'm guessing all the minor stuff was switched over, just not the long threads(Learned'd, the other special thread, and the tech articles)?

Nothing switched over yet.They were held back.

[krimsonviper]

Wilco. Bobby is gonna bring up the "cheating on your gf" again. haha.

True Dat. I want out from school already... I won't mention my sound system ....

In tradition of teh Learned'd, WHO. THE. f***. ARE. YOU?!

This pic makes me want one even more. I really need to stop viewing my other forums. iz sad nao.

So I'm guessing the coil overs will be going on the TT along with other goodies originally planned for the 2+2 shag wagon?

AB, I gots an audio question for you, since you're an audio guy. What amp should I get for my system? I can't go without bass.

I am currently running a pair of Kicker Comp VR 07CVR124's (50-400W RMS)

A pair of them? So you can wire to 1/4/8 ohms? Budget?

Subs generally don't fry amps (unless they were wired to deliver an impedance too low for the amp). Maybe the gain was jacked and you were actually overdriving the amp? But then I would think the subs would blow first.

Blue moon in mah belly

That's some good beer man. Dude, you're the one that intro'd me to Manchester Orchestra, f***ing love their 2nd album. Any more like it?

[AppleBonker]

I haven't even turned my head unit on since it fried itself.

I blew a midrange driver before and drove around for a few months without ever turning the radio on. It made me unhappy. But then I upgraded and was happier with the setup than before I blew the speaker.

That's some good beer man.

I respectfully disagree. Too fruity for me.

Pretty much another noob... Another Z guy like Ace over here. I'd give you details but I have no idea what you want to know... Punk a** kid, 19 (20 in July), like cars (mostly the ones from the decade I was born in...), respect most cars *cough**F-HYBRIDS**cough*,all music is the shizz (even if I don't like it, I'll listen), I love boost, I agree with this guys PSA "Disregard Females, Acquire Currency"-?... I dunno bro! What else is there that you would like to know?

Well, they're individual speaker enclosures, so I don't think I can go 8 ohm without some cutting into the box. Budget is decent but for a good price. I just want subs. I'm not gonna be going to any bass competitions or anything. I'm just in it for the quality, and my 1st set of subs happened to be 12's.

Basically I just want an amp with an RMS of ~800W so I'm not gonna be underpowering my subs.

Also, I didn't have the gain jacked, but I did have the "level" jacked. The reason it didn't blow the subs is because the subs are about 1500W peak power combined, 400W RMS.

Idk, this thing is way too stock for me to start tinkering with right away. I'll have to weigh my options.

[DMeN Z]

Aw..I was like that the first couple of months. It's 5spd right? The auto is teh suxor but convenient for the traffic conditions where I live.

[nissangirl74]

hey everybody!

[AppleBonker]

Well, they're individual speaker enclosures, so I don't think I can go 8 ohm without some cutting into the box.

Even in individual enclosures you can still wire to any of those options. It's just a slight bit harder if the enclosures are completely across the trunk. And, running at 8 ohms would be dumb anyway.

Also, I didn't have the gain jacked, but I did have the "level" jacked. The reason it didn't blow the subs is because the subs are about 1500W peak power combined, 400W RMS.

I see. You probably were driving the amp to clipping. Most likely how it fried.

Basically I just want an amp with an RMS of ~800W so I'm not gonna be underpowering my subs.

Decent budget that fits those needs. I can come up with at least one recommendation off the top of my head. You could look at the little brother of my sub amp. I feel like I push this brand a lot, but they are freaking work horses. I've got mine running below one ohm (which shouldn't be stable) and have had it that way for over a year and half with no problems. The link is actually the e-tailer I bought from (authorized) and they were excellent as well.

With that, you'd have to wire to one-ohm. Then you'd have to set the gains correctly. But it should work perfectly and at an excellent price if you ask me. It's not cheap, but I doubt you'd find much under that cost that would perform anywhere near as well. If that's too steep, let me know and I'll dig a little deeper.

[AppleBonker]

hey everybody!

Hi Bex!

'nother long night ahead?

[Razi]

hey everybody!

[Ace2cool]

5spd right?

....it will be.....

The only 5spd Z32s I've found out here are either riced out beyond belief or abused in the worst kind of way.

It's a little steep, but I'd probably be able to manage it. Since @ 1 ohm, it's 1000W RMS, I'd have to turn it down to accomodate my subs and not blow my voice coils, correct?

Hi! new here... KrimsonViper started my orientation already...

Gotta love the forums...makes these long nights go by faster

You initiation isn't done b****. Bend over and take Razi's c***. NOW!

I go back to studying nao...

hey everybody!

Hai Bex. How are you today, Gorgeous?

[Ace2cool]

Once you know fuzzball raep, you know no other rape.

note: fuzzy raep is very, VERY different from rape

[DMeN Z]

haha nice.... Same here, the tt 5spds around where I live were all abused to s*** or had "graphics" similar to that of Unicorn Z... Hey mine is auto, nothing wrong with that ....I'll be swapping in a fresh JDM transmission with my built motor way later in the year. The only exterior mods I'll have will be tt wheels and a drop for a lonnng time. Unless Simmode finds something I can't resist buying

Yes, it is.

Also, N00bert needs a nickname. A vile and gay and extremely embarrassing/owned name, that he must wear for 1 week. He is to be entertaining, and must answer to it, at all times.

Yup, I did a bit of a write-up for the Altima section and I don't want to retype. Gain setting tutorial here.

It's a little steep, but I'd probably be able to manage it.

That amp would last a while, but I'll look for some cheaper options. I was thinking Hifonics might work (that's the brand), but it seems the amp I thought was more of a budget amp is about the same price.

aww KV! you found a pic of me interviewing the new guy!!!!

Suck it! Can't catch this :moon

Plz sir, may I have some Lube?

Gaw Damn that's rough! That's me?! Look at my face smiling right there...I can't believe I'm taking it so well!!! haha

aww my a** raep smiley failed...f*** me side ways...

I actually knew about the whole relationship between current and voltage, oddly enough. I just can't apply it to audio. My brain won't let me. The way the Navy teaches electronics is teh suck. That's an awesome writeup, though!
