  1. Are you saying that you already have RCA's to front and rear but now with the new head unit you have nowhere to plug in the rears? My current stereo has 3 sets - fr, RR and sub which are all in use. I'm shortly going to upgrade but I'm finding most have front and another for rear/sub.

     

    I just bought some little rca splitters, kind of like a double adapter to try out. $1 each. Not sure how it will go but maybe an option for you if all your wiring is already done. Depends on if you actually want a fader. I just have the rears toned down a little on the amp.

     

    I'm also keen on feedback about the deck. Pics and comments once its done.


  2. I have one sub. 4 ohms. My amp gives it 300watts RMS. If I connect another so that they are connected in parallel then I get a load of 2 ohms and my amp will supply 500watts RMS. If I connect a total of 4 I have a 1 ohm load and a smoking amp as it is only rated at 2 or 4 ohms. There are dual voice coil sub's which change it all. I'm not familiar with them though. Mine is a single 4ohm coil.

     

    I guess the difference in ohms decided how many watts your amp is delivering. In my case 300 watts@4 ohm or 500 watts@2ohm. I will eventually run 2 sub's for that reason.

     

    Not sure if that's any help but a tired little 3 yo is calling me so that's all I've got.


  3. Yeah I saw that. Thought I liked the wrong one. I have seen shifty shit like this before. Awhile ago I watched a barina facia kit. Lets say $50 free postage. Did that as I was still debating about whether to buy her a cd player or not. Went in there a few weeks later and suddenly its $50 and $200 postage.


  4. Original post is different to my ethanol experience. When mine was full it displayed full but did heaps of klms before the first bar dropped and then they went real quick. A few tanks of normal fuel, 98 in my case as that is all I use, and all came good. One point to think about with fuel. I usually run only bp in the LTD but last time out I went shell. This was on a big cruise up to arthurs seat. My fuel gauge acted like I was using the E10. I was really suss on it.

     

    Using Tapatalk on my SIII because I can!


  5. Im thinking of looking for a donor car for my FE as soon as my wagon moves on. I want to run power steer and air on. Can I use the complete AU motor with bolt ons (a/c, pwr str, alt) as is or do I have to mix and match. Can they be set up for a dizzy? If I happened to score one with a T5 and I run straight gas do I need the computer? I want to buy as much as possible before hand before I pull mine apart.


  6. My FE might be getting a new engine soon, not sure if it will be a six or eight. Either way I want to rip out the petrol tank and install an LPG tank there. Not sure if existing LPG tank will stay or go. Will probably stay.

     

    Anyone know who is best to talk to? Probably my most worrying hurdle. I don't want to have a 200klm trip between fills. Would really be happy with another 50 usable litres.
