Car Audio Central - Ultimate Car Audio Forum and Community

Well it's not a total hijack since it's still all discussions about your car and others like it and possible options for you or others :)

No harm done :) The point of the post was made on the first page, I enjoy a good thread hijack, makes things interesting. :bigwink:

[quote="Purple RS"]I like it alot. The amp is really nice as it combines the Class A/B amp for the stereo channels and a Class D amp for the sub and I can use just one amp to power the whole system. The sub suits my listening preferences just about perfect.
Funny how this thread turned from wheels to cars to audio :D
You guys hijack as well as we do over on my F-body forum - Cascade Crew :happy055: [/quote]


Yeah i'm smooth about it though. LOL didn't mean to hijack sorry.

nice clean install bud. How do you like the mojo stuff?

Tim

Yeah I remember you putting those up... Still looks good too :)

And I guess when it comes to F-bodies I'm just one for wanting the most out of them... I'm not opposed to a V6 as long as it's a 1989 Limited Edition Pace Car Trans Am :D
I've owned a lot of F-bodies and only 1 was a 6 cyl.... but I hardly think that counts when it was a 1978 Berlinetta with a 250 inline 6. I have no doubt that another F-body will be in the garage again someday.

As a matter of fact, I do. I put some up in the Install Showoff forum a while back when I joined the forum, I'll see if I can dig some up again.

Here's the heart of the system, Memphis Belle MCH1600 with 12" MOJO sub. There is also a perforated steel cover covered with acoustic carpet to hide and protect the amp and woofer.

The rest is MB quart components and coax drivers in stock locations and kick panels.

The purple one I've had sine 1997 and has my latest sound system in it, I've kept it mostly stock except for the interior which I've had reupholstered and installed a digital dash.[/QUOTE]


any pics of the sound system??

[quote="MobileAudio219"]The 3.1 probably isnt a whole lot slower than the 305..
I'd keep the 3.1 as a nice daily driver, and build a 383 for the 305 car.... :thumbsup [/quote]

Bone stock, there's about a 30hp and 50lb/ft difference. Never had the purple 3.1 to the strip, but similar cars/motors run about 18 sec and mid 70mph. My 305 bone stock ran 16.3 @ 84mph, with headers and 3" exhaust, a slightly better 15.8 @ 86mph. The V6 F-bodies with the proper suspension are better suited to road race than the V8 cars, they don't have the straight away speed, but they rule the in the turns because of the weight distribution.

[quote="swimmerdude"]Looks pretty good.... and the red one looks pretty damn clean and sounds like you have a strong buildup going of it.
I wish i could be doing the things i want to my truck.... taking the 4.8 out and puting a 6.0 in it would be nice.... one day if i ever strike it rich.[/quote]

Thanks, but it takes good pictures. It needs paint and all the weather stripping. Both doors rattle badly, but not as much as the did when I bought it 2 years ago. Most of the work it needs now is cosmetic, but I have to go farther than that :p The purple one I've had sine 1997 and has my latest sound system in it, I've kept it mostly stock except for the interior which I've had reupholstered and installed a digital dash.

The 4.8's are pretty peppy, the 5.3 with a few mods can be pretty mean..

Of course the new 6.0's (car motors) are just plain mean...
