    system help

    So doesn't that equal only 50W at 8Ω when their wired in series? What's the RMS rating of the subs? You're definitely putting way too much of a load on the amp. With the two subs in parallel (2Ω) they'd still probably need (and try to take) more than the ~200W they're each seeing...

    power antenna

    Could be the toothed nylon line inside it is stripped. I think you *might* be able to tear the whole unit apart and just swap out that line or its drive gear, which ever is stripped.

    New Climate Control colors.... :)

    Sorry, thought I'd already mentioned that I can't find a 16 pin display in blue or white.... so I'm planning on, eventually, building a small adapter/piggyback card for one of the displays that is available. I just need to find the time to map it all out and etch a board.

    New Climate Control colors.... :)

    It's one piece with a Common Anode and 16 pins. Here the digikey part number for a red display: 67-1447-ND

    New Climate Control colors.... :)

    I replaced the LEDs in mine quite a while ago... used SMDs as I had the most of those on hand. That was tricky. I also made the indicator color for the two defroster/heater buttons red instead of the blue I used on the other indicators. I'm planning on ordering a blue segmented display and...

    Infinity Basslink II.... my impressions and some questions

    Yeah, I wasn't the least bit impressed with the original Basslink..... muddy as hell depending on how the crossover was set. I've heard both in my car and in the store, there's a big difference. The Basslink II fills in the missing mid range bass quite well, but I do intend on putting some 6.5"...

    Don't be this stupid!

    It'd take a genius.:3d_frown: As for the sand bucket porting method.... This is a proven method. It DOES work! The most important thing though is that it MUST be done on a HIGH DOLLAR, FRESHLY BUILT engine!!! :evil2:

    Stock Supra Mufflers

    3" is fine on a N/A... yes, the engine doesn't get as much help from the scavaging effect of the exhaust already moving through the system, but the difference isn't terribly big and it only really effects you in the lower RPM.... at higher RPM the larger diameter helps out a fair amount. BUT...

    Infinity Basslink II.... my impressions and some questions

    So you have the Basslink II? Have you heard the first version? I couldn't believe the difference. How have you got yours mounted? Horizontal or vertical? And where is it placed? I've found the sound to be just as clean as most of the boxes my friends have, just no where near as loud. It's not...

    timing mark jumps erratically

    Could be a worn timing belt or the idler (belt tensioner) needs replacing. Are you sure you're getting a good connection when you jumper the diag box?

    Infinity Basslink II.... my impressions and some questions

    Sorry, no. Hardtop here. Mounted on top of the plywood over the spare would be too high. Although it *might* fit if installed vertically over on the side of the trunk. I'll try to take some pics tomorrow... most likely won't happen until Thursday though.

    anyone see these on ebay yet?

    I don;t care for the vents, but I suppose I could maje them functional..... The big reason I'm liking these is I've been thinking about have FG fenders made along with an FG hood (already available, afaik) for a little weight reduction.... all this is going to be a while off though.

    Infinity Basslink II.... my impressions and some questions

    Not unless you're driving a bus.... there are a couple units out there like that, but the Basslink series are all way to big for that. It's got one square 10" woofer and on the opposite side is a 10" passive radiator. I can't find the exact dimensions, but they're not small at all. If I had...

    Infinity Basslink II.... my impressions and some questions

    Hey guys, I recently got an Infinity Basslink II for my Supra.... got a KILLER deal on it! I've listened to both the original Basslink and (obviously) the Basslink II in my car. The II sounds 100X better than the original.... none of the muddy sound the original often produced (I'm not the only...

    How to fit a 6.5" door speaker????

    LOL... I love it. I didn't know they were that different from the 4" pods. Anyone have a pic? I'd like to put some 6.5" in my car.

    Diff brakes in turbo and N/A?

    Oh, forgot to mention, mine is an '88. I *think* the master cyl. is different, but beyond that I really don't know.

    Mine has the air vent. It's not a turbo and no sports package.

    Stolen Supra in East Bay, Cali

    It's always possible that when they decided on the car they wanted they did a quick search on how to disable the factory alarm. Unfortunately, that info is a little to easy to come by. I was given the impression that master keys for cars do not and have not ever existed.... got that...

    Deck wont play burned cd's?

    I wouldn't go trying to force 'em to burn at anything as low as 2x, but try 16x and see what happens. If you haven't had one apart before, I recommend you try your luck with burning at different speeds first. Then, cleaning....
