Phoenix Gold Phorum

well nothing to special just remember this is a winter beater and will likely only be around for a short while so no extra time spent

lol, thats some damn nice gear for a beater!

your winter beater is a supercharged Pontiac Grand Prix? 380ft/lbs of torque if i remember right... and the police suspension kit is a direct bolt on...

with a pair of ID subs, McIntosh fronts and PG MS Series (2150 and a 275 by the looks of it)?

wow.

nice "beater"

Wish my beater got those amps!

These amps will change from time to time I set it up this way as I,m heading state side to pic up my SOFAS soon same wiring pattern so I will remove them to bring it back duty free heres a pic of the previous amp,s installed unfortunately I never got pics of the hcca 2100,s while they were in them suckers sure are badass

wow.

by the way thats a mac 500LE with a 275 we should never comprimise on sound or horsepower, especially when you spend an hour a day driving back and forth to work

job well done...shit I just adore the macintosh comps....so how does the tantrum do with the id's?

even at 4 ohm mono as the subs are 8 ohms I thought the car was going to shake apart unfortunately the 300.2 just didn,t do its part on the front end might have been under powered? if I trip on another 300.2 I might try to run 2 of them mono on the front end and the 1200 on the subs? might work although I got my new ti5 elites thanks to Davewaivel http://phoenixphorum.com/ti-elite-cross ... 12865.html and woofers etc http://www.woofersetc.com/p6217/Ti5-MID ... -speakers- so I might have to try them out as the crossover is done in the tantrum theme so it would look pretty cool as well

its rare that I ever see pictures and I have never heard a set of Mac components... are they crazy expensive or just rare or what?

not to sure I bought these new back in the day for around 500 in the late 90,s excellent sound quality

very nice man all you have to do is change it for the focal you just got form me and sell me the macs...lol
very nice is that your wifes old car i remeber that car when it had the jl ib you sold me last year...

no__this was my daily till I got my new car I tried to sell it but everyone kept lowballing me so I figured fu__ it I,ll drive it in the winter and keep my good car in the garage for a few winters, I just love HP and with snow tires this car kicks ass in the winter as well as summer and has a really big trunk for my 15,s

Clearly you and I have have a completely different concept of what a winter beater looks like. Did I sell you some tantrum endcaps? Nice car

First image that popped up on google "winter beater"...

This looks like a large percentage of Michigan cars all year round.

it looks like a sunday car in kentucky! just for special occasions and such, just add a bunch of weeds growing around it to camoflage it and it would be home there.

How do those tweeters image from there? Is the stage high? I like the out of sight position and upward angle going on. But I'd have thought further away, the other side of the mid, would be better?

actually I,ll have to let you know on that one, when I installed them I didn,t know they were blown till they were in so then I used the stock tweeters (I know boo hiss) in the top corners of the doors by the dash till I can find replacements and the weather gets warm enough to go outside to play

It's just started getting warmer here. So my instal has begun, with a few hours here and there

thats right and lOOK it has vermont tags!!!!

nice setup. I like the endcaps on those. The GTP was one of my favorite cars of all time. Only bad thing about it was the front wheel drive.

I just noticed you have a linear power PAII in that beater lol what would you sell that to me for?

When I die I could will it to you its one of my favourite original pieces just had it upgraded with cyrus chips and a few more bits not sure what you have to spend but Ray has one over at LP follow link
