Not the greatest pics, but my car's twin spotted us and parked next to mine today. If this is your car, or you know who's it is, hit me up so we can hit the canyons and get some better pics. Funny thing is, I'd already spotted this car in another parking lot across town (recognizable by the red...
This just happened to me for the first time. Android Auto randomly stopped connecting and when I attempt to repair and reconnect the phone, I get a "Device not compatible" error message. However, it does still work when plugged in to USB and Bluetooth audio also remained functional. I also ended...
This is one of the things I'm loving about this forum. I get to benefit from your guys' tinkering and get solutions I would have never figured out on my own. Thanks!
This is a great write up. The suspension is just purely non compliant and downright combative at times. I don't know if it was designed for the roads in Japan or what. I like my NorCal canyon roads but I they are anything but smooth, and if it wasn't for the Recado seating, I'm not sure I'd even...
I had a really hard time picking between Sonic Gray and Champ White until I saw a picture on Pinterest of a rad EK9 Type R in Champ White and realized this a nostalgic car, it deserves a nostalgic paint code. The Red is also beautiful, I just couldn't see myself driving that full time.
Just be glad we don't have a fiber optic system, lol, I've had a couple Benzs wit the fiber optics Bose system and those were a true PITA. I ended up just not even bothering with it and kept system stock.
Didn't realize they were components but after going back and looking at list of speakers I realized they are. No use adding more tweets, I agree. The more I look at doing this the more I think I should just replace the entire system. I think if using CDT components, you can build a nice system...
It can't be tapped into in the traditional sense, meaning you can't use an isolated channel for you amp signal nor can you get an RCA signal direct from the head unit. However, you can use a line output converter to convert speaker wire signal to RCA. These range in price but a very reliable...
Ok wait one more thing, I was just looking at the product page from the link you sent me, and I see they have a refurbished set of both the ES-5 and CL-5 5.25". Will those not work for us?
Haven't really gotten that far yet. But I did see that 3" by CDT, definitely want to include that. I also peeped the Es-52 and hd-52 5.25" but they are $399 for the set. What I do think I need to add to my cart is the ACD-5Ch amp. That price seems to good to be true. It ain't DSP but with the...
Yeah, it sure is. This was in the back of my Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT and even in that it took up a lot of the space. Planning to downgrade to 2 10" Type R's, possibly in a sealed box, though vented sounds so much better for the music I listen to. The other option would be keep the 12's but put...
I included pics of how it first sat in the trunk. Absolutely no useable space remaining. So, until I get a setup with a smaller box, I did manage to get a few more inches of space by propping it up on the ledge just behind the back seats. This of course required strapping it down to keep it in...
This is exactly the type of solution I was after. Also, I'm not 100% certain but I remember reading somewhere that the Honda Bose system actually uses the same factory Honda speakers as any other model, however, since powered by a Bose amp, sound much better than they do in any vehicle not...
These look like good quality, and certainly reasonable. Now, is your idea to run these with the factory amp? Or do you plan on also swapping out the amp? Thanks for the info.
Hey guys, just brought home my FL5 CTR earlier this month and like any good car owner would do, I have begun to make plans for the car to ensure that it has good future.
One of the things I'd like to look into is tuning the car. From what I've researched so far, it looks as if some tuning...
Aright so I got my FL5 earlier this month, and first place I took it was the stereo shop. They actually managed to stuff a huge ported box running 2x 12" Alpine Type R subs (fittingly) that I took out of my Jeep SRT. Also installed a bass knob in one of the factory blanks and it's working out...
