I choose my car on what I can get insurance on, then go from there.

Damn insurance companies, GRRRR.

Reliabilty 1st, then looks and engine even second.

Not too fussed on a fast car anymore though, theres nowhere to use it on the road :cry:

Just holding out to save up enough $$$ for a race car.

Alpine type X components. bloody good, but pretty expensive.

Or for less, some DD C6.2 $300 mark. Again bloody good & powerful but much cheaper.

Just my opinion of a few good sets.

That sounds about right for a 4x80 RMS amp.

Follow the manuals guidance.

Just use a 40A blade fuse right next to the battery and you'll be sweet.

Make sure its sealed from water though. (making the assumption your battery is still under the bonnet.)

I agree with you guys,

It just sounded like he already had a set and didnt want to spend too much.

As they said, if you want much better sound go with some small subs.

Whatever floats your boat though!

Digital dash looks awsome,

But for practicality and being in my comfort zone I'd go with analog,
Its what im used to.

Besides, digital is hard to see when the sun is shining straight on it.

the 3s has two less cylinders, and for a 4cyl has pretty decent torque due to square stroke and bore.

4AGE,

I know what your saying pyscho dad, and i'd have to agree with you...
except its a rota, therefore NO.

Just put one of those stupid rota tips on a 4aged one, then you get all the pros of a 4age and the ONE pro of a rota, the sound.
