Whats up guys! Im MECP certified and spent the last 9-10 years working on custom fabrication in mobile audio. a few of the rides i worked on can be found on www.innovativerides.com though i think the site is down for repairs, should be back up in a few days. One thing I hate is when people read customers and just "SELL" something to them instead of educating them on products and how they might help or harm his system..

Joe,

All stock under hood..... for now.
So far all I have right not is my head unit. It's a Alpine 9857 and a yet-to-be installed CHA1214 (trying to figure out where to mount it.) I'm gettin' a lil' up in age and want to build something nice but keep it real low-key as far as cosmetics are concerned. But I want some bang, boom-bip pretty soon.
Any suggestions?

My name is matt. I have experience in stereo installation, and electronics and circuitry. I work in the IT department at a local chemical company and am about to start college in a few weeks.
Just joined once i bought my new(to me) car. it's a 92 vigor GS. love the car. i thought it was a LS when i was buying it, but once i got it, and started looking around, it became apparent it was a GS . The interior is in really good shape.
But the body has seen better days. Lots of rust spots. Most of them i can fix with some sanding, body filler, and paint. Two parts of the car will need to be cut out and welded. I can post pics if you like. If any of you have any ideas for me, im all ears. the 3rd owner of the car i guess, im the 5th, was going to paint it. Well they got as far as spraying primer all over it. Not a bad job, very little over spray.
I plan to wet-sand off the primer and if the original paint underneath is in good shape ill keep it. If not, i was thinking of painting it black with a clear coat. The interior is black with dark wood trim, so i think it would look nice.
The guy i bought it from didn't tell me about the major rust spots, but i flew 600 miles up to cleavland to get the car so i had no choice. Over all the car is in good shape engine, tranny, and interior wise, just needs some body work.

hey guys, the name is omar. most people just call me o. i sell car audio over at best buy, been a big fan of car audio for the last few years, been doin alot of research on a lot of products even the stuff i cant sell here. got a 00 civic hatch with Rockford Fosgate P312D4 (x2) in a custom enclosure, Rockford Fosgate P6002 (x2) 2CH amps, Rockford Fosgate P4004 4 CH amp, also Rockford Fosgate 6x9 and 6.5 speakers with Power Acoutik Tweeters. The car sounds great. Got a pioneer indash dvd that pumps out 2 volt pre-outs on it which im going to be putting in 4 line drivers to bump up the voltage to make it even louder.
PS.. i love being loud and annoying the living shit out of my neighbors

Hi everyone, my name is Scott.
I am mainly into car audio, but cars in general are my main hobby.
I had a pretty serious setup in my last car (1994 Mazda Protege... link)
I recently got a 1994 Accord LX 5-speed, and I am going to do a very similar setup in this car... I am loving it so far.
If you have any audio questions, just give me a holler... I can help you out.
