nice, thanks everyone !!

the cobalt has a 5x100 and so does the g6,

vibe11

poor gas on the highway, and having issues with the second one. and if there are so many issues with the 5 speed toyota should fix it.

vibe11

ive found a couple for $1000. i feel that the 5 speed is gonna go out again. would like to replace it with a 6 speed when it does or before it does.has anyone here swapped them yet?

vibe11

would i need to get new front axles?

vibe11

would i need to get a new shifter or are they the same?and y does the 5 speed cost more than the 6 speed?

vibe11

can i do a 5 speed to 6 speed swap? if so what would need?

vibe11

yes, there around $70 brand new

vibe11

new pics

vibe11

im not going to argue about this , the amp has enough power, i have been installing and repairing amps for many years. if mu lived in Columbus u could come check it out. i called farenheit and they explained about the amp., first of all jl subs sound good but the tinsle leads are too short, and the ...

vibe11

the sub calls for a ported box between 4.5 and 6cu ft and a sealed between 7 to 12 cu ft. im going to leave it bare lol

vibe11

there is plenty enough amp for that sub, im posting pics later on the build. that amp is both a high current amp and efficient on power, hence the class x. by far the cleanest and loudest setup ive had in the vibe

vibe11

yeah. i never use the trunk. its only in use when i have subs. this is my last set up in the car, im gonna all out with the box. box will be finished tuesday.what u guys think on color?black vinylgray vinylblack carpetgray carpetor just plain mdf

vibe11

just got an old school exodus audio tempest x1 15 inch and an old school farenheit class x 620-2. the sub is dual 8ohms and is 1000rms and 2000max. the amp is 600rms at 4ohms and 1200max at 2ohms i will be running the sub at 4ohms. the box will be ported with 6 cubic feet of air tuned at 30hertz.

vibe11

pics of my tweets,in the front are 6.5 polk db component speakers and in the rear are 6.5 fuzion reactor component speakers, powered by an old school sound stream rubicon 300-2 under the drivers seatinside the soundstream amp

vibe11

also, u will need to get crossovers, if u dont u will blow ur tweeters

vibe11

if ur looking for good, clean highs, i would get either polk audio, mb quart, alpine, or fuzion. if u had the money, u should get focal audio

vibe11

be very carefull that you dont over power the l5, kicker likes to overrate there subs. realisticly that sub will only handle 1000 true watts of power. i have had 1 l5 15, 2 l7 12s. i blew 1 l7 on an old school soundstream rubicon 1000sx, only turned up halfway on the gain.best of luck

vibe11

actually the roof rack cracked, so i took it off, on the front part of the roof rack, ( the shiny plastic cap) they pop off and slide out, there should be 2 screws underneath it holding down the front part, same with the back gently lift the plastic cap up, and slide out, there should also be 2 scre...

vibe11

nice setup, dd audio is awesum had a pair of there 8s back in the day!but i wouldnt have gone with a kicker amp. either elemental designs nine.1, or and old school soundstream rubiecon, but thats just my preferance

vibe11

The "DC ERROR" message is displayed whenever a speaker wire is shorting to ground. Most often it's right behind the dash, especially if the unit was spliced in without using an aftermarket wiring harness. But sometimes, it's one of the wires at the speaker locations. Find and correct the s...

vibe11

i would go with polk or mb quart both sound amazing, i u had some money to spend then i would either go with jl audio or focal.best of luck

vibe11

cause i have had 15s before there ok but not what im going for, will give updates when im done

vibe11

here is a pic of the control arm if u look carefully u can see the crack

vibe11

here is a pic of one of my 8 inch jl w6and my box, build still in progress

vibe11

so far its been out of commission for a week, just waiting on parts to get in. thats the one things i hate about this car. its hard to find replacement parts.

vibe11

i bent the inner tierod and cracked my lower control arm. slid on the ice last week, and hit a curb going about 40mph

vibe11

i have 5 8inch jl w6 and they are extremely loud, running on a 1400.1 planet audio

vibe11

are u going for loudness, or sound quality?my sub choices would either be some 1st gen jl w6.american bassa fi audio 12inch btlor any subwoofer by elemental designs

vibe11

what other engines will mount up to the vibe base model wiring harness?and what performance upgrade are available for the vibe base model engine? (besides a intake and exhaust)

vibe11

so far i have polk audio mids and highs up front and 2 6 inch elemental designs sub in the rear door speakers. i want good sound quality, and i want to hit the all the different frequencies of low notes and at the same time i want it to be loud

vibe11

and other suggestions, also which ever oner i dont put in the car i am going to sell

vibe11

what subs should i put in my car 2 8 in jl w6 and a 10 inch jl w6 all version 1 or a 10inch 2000 watt soundstream da vincithey would be running off of a planet audio 900.1

vibe11

i am running two soundstream amps and even before i had an mtx thunder 940 running both subs and the sounds really good

vibe11

i just had to buy them they were a steal 50 buck for both of them

vibe11

just got me 2 massive audio 15 inch sub rated at 2000 rms and 4000 peakand a soundstream 480 to power them
