Phoenix Gold Phorum

Hey guys, check out my new ride. i still have my civic but will keep that for wintertime duty. its a 2004 enthusiast 350z. i just installed my alpine CDA-9833 but will be upgrading is soon with a pioneer avic d3 or z2. trying to plan out a stereo for it but room is so tight inside. i dont think i'll be able to fit both my x200.4 and x1200.1 in it. as far as my 12" xxx, forget about it! good or bad, let me know what you guys think.

Mods:

Volk time attacks: 19x9.5 front, 19x10.5 rear.
Swift springs
Nismo headers
Crawford high flow cats
Nismo catback
Motordyne 1/2inch plenum space
JWT flywheel and clutch
Injen cold air intake

VERY NICE!!

the only thing i don't like is the red accent on the rims....
other then that, Super hot

damn...i want

Ditto.

And hey, Ahsmo fit his X200.4 and X1200.1 in his 350... but I think he had to switch to a dual 10" setup (under the back arch IIRC)

^ he did say it was super tight on the wire connections though

the rims have the red accent because they are limited edition Volk Time Attacks. They are currently discontinued. they look much better in person, the pics do not do them justice!

Do any of you guys know where i can find pictures of ashmo's setup?

Nice car! You have a 12" xxx? and you were running it with a 1200.1?

you got it! i was running that setup in my 2003 civic si. it was loud as hell. xxx is a great sub. i had the 2005 version though, not the newer one thats hugemungous. i would be willing to trade it though for a pair of 10's...

hehe, steve already has one!

he didnt think the x1200.1 would be enough so he dropped some decent dough on another amp (can remember which)

more than i could handle with just the x1200.1

here is the forum topic on his car: http://phoenixphorum.com/my-car-and-ins ... highlight=

I think he has made a few modifications to some things since then, but this is still the same general setup he has. I have ridden in this car almost as much as my own. If you install it right, this car has nothing but potential for sound quality.

IMO.

hope that helped though.

dude that car is SEX

i love those volk's

*edit*

the only thing that would make that car sexier is a big fat front mount IC peekin through the grille(and turbo of course )

Ya mine's the 2006 xxx, and the Ti1200.1 I had did not push it enuff.
So put in an Autotek Mean machine 3000.1

looks good.

i wrapped my z around a pole last week. any recommendations on what i should get next? looking for something around 20-25k, nothing american.

Lexus IS300 FTW!!!! Seriously, if you liked the Z you will more than likely like the IS300.

Thaqt's the new in thing bro. Tenzo and all the big manus are doing it.

Personally I think it rawks, lovely car too !

Oddly enough I am going to be manhandling the engine and trans out of one of them (the V6) as my mate back in NJ who I am going to be staying with just bought one from a wrecker.

He's fitting them in a 1972 Fiat Spider cabrio

The car weighs nothing, he and I can get an end each with the engine out and carry it around

It's going to be a fast fuckin car alright

Shit I didnt see that, bummer !

Personally for that much I would try and locate a TVR. There are some available over here. They will make that nissan feel like a pussycat. However, you are likely to end up dead should you make a mistake

Not sure what else really compares with a Z tbh, theyre very unusual and a lexus is a different car really...

Edit 1 -

Infact I would get a brand new RX8.

You'll thank me for it

Edit 2 -

Or a TT perhaps?

Post tided and the others removed.

The rims suck even if its the "in thing"
Nice car but the rims ruin it. It would be better with a nice charcoal greay or gunpowder greay rim setup.
I remeber when big hair was the "in thing" we all laugh at that now....But its a nice car.

In your opinion of course.

In your opinion again. I know alot of people who are rolling on those wheels even though they have no red at all on the car and they look awesome (in my opinion of course)

Well if it makes you any happier I won't be laughing at black wheels with a red edging anytime soon and doubtfully in the future
