omg ok you take the instrument cluster out, remove the plexiglass and plastic trim, its held on with a few screws on the back, you'll see em. once you get those out its self explanitory. it won't move unless you use pliers and lift the axle the numbers sit on out of the assembly by moving a little metal clamp that clamps the 'axle' on. It's easy lol I won't go into it further but yea. I did it to read what my new motor was at.

Bought some 6 1/2" Kenwoods to replace my 4x6 Aplines... Then I went down to ACE Hardware today and had them cut me 2 8x11 sheets of plexiglass so I could make my adapters



I ended up fixing the broken piece at the top left corner, so no worries.. All I can say is wow... Sounds a shyt ton better.

OK thats it for now

OK, its been a little while since I've updated... Havn't been on that much lately (work, sex, etc...) But here is a little bit of whats been going on, and sorry for the crappy pix, taken with cell fone.

I lowered my car

And my buddy steve bought a S13 with an SR already swapped, but the auto transmission was shot so we dropped the motor and we are installing the manual transmission. (He's got all the parts)



Hope you enjoyed!!!

bad idea. 6x9's sound horrible and distort your mids.

GOOD 6.5" rounds will always sound better. i can give ya some recommendations if ya want

Its been a while since I've posted on NICO, but here I am again.

I've been busy... Getting my buddy's camry motor swapped, getting his S13 transmission/diff swapped along with other little things, and making sure my car stays running.

Gonna replace my headgasket this Saturday as well as install electric fans (picked up both fans from a 200sx for $40). I'll try to keep you guys updated as events unravel.

Replaced headgasket but now a couple of relays are fubarred... Damn it... Oh well, time for a trip to the salvage yard. I think I'll grab some "extra" wiring while im out there... Hehe...

Didn't get around to electric fan install, but no biggie. It will get done someday. Also picked up an e-brake handle/cables/calipers for $5... Not too bad... I will have an ebrake once again!

nice. Dont you usually need to resurface it, especially if it overheated or just went bad?

Havn't updated in a while. I put a 10" sub with a 760W amp in the car. Im in the middle of installing power folding mirrors... Let's see, I blew 1 of my 5.25" front speakers, so I'm going to buy some 6.5" and mount them in front instead. I want to put some bigger speakers in the rear, but I might just pull the rear speakers. I don't know yet.

I have some pictures that are still on my digicam, but I don't feel like uploading them right now, so yeah. Other than that there really isn't much going on right now. I'm paying off a bunch of bills that have racked up over the past 3 years, so when all of that is payed off, hopefully I can start doing more to the car.
