    Deck dims

    the power wire most likely isn't the problem, but while you're doing that, replace the ground also. Instead of going through the long ass wire that's already there, make your own ground.

    What's it like to replace or repare a FF tranny?

    In my experiences...they suck. Even changing a clutch is a 3 hour job in a FWD car :(

    Deck dims

    are your headlights/dash lights/dome lights dimming with the deck? If so, the cheap way out is to add a capacitor, the CORRECT way is to get a bigger alternator and upgrade the grounds from your battery, and possibly even the power wires to the alternator

    How do 4" sound?

    using your headunit to push (almost) ANY aftermarket speaker will be fine. They won't sound top notch because they aren't getting anywhere near as much power as they need, but they will be ok. As far as clarion :runaway:

    LED tail light conversion, clearcorners.com style. Ideas on how to?

    Wow JJ, I didn't know anyone else was into LED's here :) My dad and I just built a flashlight with a Cree in it and WOW. Even though they were $7 a pop, the first light we did was AMAZING, and the second was still about 3x brigther than the original LED. EDIT: forgot to ask the question I...

    12v Optima red top battery in Toyota Supra Turbo/good or bad??

    The only problem I see with Optimas is that they are deep cycle batteries, meant to be drained completely then recharged. They're awesome to use as SECOND batteries for sound systems (as an aux battery for at car shows, etc...), but when they're constantly being recharged I don't know how well...

    Stock Seatbelt + Racing Seats = no no?

    TTL's $.02: Seatbelts also have little "rip zones" in them (don't know the true name). They kinda unravel as they get yanked on really hard, to a certain extent. There's like 5-6" of unravel material in the seatbelt that's stitched up into a compressed zone; when substantial force is applied...

    How do 4" sound?

    Your welcome Chad, that's what we're here for :) I'll tell ya that for the money, the Infinity Reference components REALLY do sound good. My mom has them in her Neon (powered by just the head unit) and they sound pretty fuggin good for $150 components with 5x7 rear fills.

    stock speakers...

    Once again, UM NO. I think it may be time to look for a new college, or maybe stay awake in class and put the reefer down. Do a little research on stereo imaging. A proper soundstage is created with FRONT speakers. The rest of your post is garbage-gargle and has already been denounced by Rob...

    stock speakers...

    Umm...no. Just...no. Please stop talking, you're hurting my head. Using front speakers only (when powered only by the deck) does NOT give more power to the front speakers. More speakers does NOT necessarily mean more sound. More volume, maybe, depends on how much cone area. If you...

    stock speakers...

    ROFL @ Justin Dude, surround sound is basically a way to compensate for proper acoustics. Being an audiophile though, I can tell you it is 99.9% impossible to get true acoustics in a vehicle. If you want surround sound, good on ya; be aware though, most CD's are NOT recorded in surround, only...
