Re: FTO Bonnet
Their selection is actually pretty good now... but they they do sell a lot of chromies to hektik lebos & their VLs.

Can't beat them on price either for a full set of 4 brand new rims & tyres. I bought mine there.

Re: FTO Bonnet
They also sell knock off rims...
So china versions of the real deal .. I know of someone that went there and bought cheap wheels "on specail" ... Think they were Volk's... Tempe had said they were real, and were a distributor ... Only to find they were fakes...
and no, it wasn't the Vork wheels either...
There is a great Tyre place down near you ... I can't think of the name of it ... It is huge ...

There's a place called Danics I think. It's in albain park. Next to frankies auto electronics. Was going to buy some chrome wheels from there but they looked sketchy.

Re: FTO Bonnet
Yeah, only been to Frankies once... Usually don't travel down that far... Also had mates use Oak Flats to have stereo and alarm work done... They did a pretty good job..FTOATH wrote:Well they did give me stickers. I always ask for stickers. Iv got heaps lol. There got a clean workshop. The ones I was going to buy were chromies.

Re: FTO Bonnet
Yeah oak flats electronics are ok. Frankies can't sell alpine and other brands that oak flats sell. I got a viper alarm system in mine. And can start the car without keys. It's wicked but illegal. if I start my car without key and car is in first well bie bie car. Frankies are amazing installers. Go to nowra frankies. Heaps bigger.

Yeah, let us know when the next show and shine is on ... I gotta start to think about what I am putting in the Evo ... Have made the door trims up to fit my Boston Pro Acoustics 6.5" mids at the moment.. So they will go in front and rear.. Just gotta get a new pair... lol...
I still have 2x12" Alpine Type R's, and 3 old school rockford fosgate amps ... Punch 100 ix2, Punch 400 gold series, and a Punch 800.1 These were all in my Sonata that a friend and I built ...
http://www.cardomain.com/ride/407397/19 ... ata/page-2
Nothing too flashy, but did the job ... I more tend to go for the sleeper look ... And squeezed all the speakers into factory spots .. As the car was a daily, and frequently parked at shopping centres..

Re: FTO Bonnet
You got the right gear. There was heaps of spl cars at frankies. Im into sound quality. Unfortunately its expensive. My main concern is power. I gotta now put duel batteries in her and capacitors. Sounds like your going for spl and sql. Plus speakers weigh your car down heaps.

Re: FTO Bonnet
Yeah, had a Schneider 1 farad capacitor running it all as well ... But really could have used a higher altenator.. Wasn't at the stage where I needed two batteries though .. Think the better altenator would have been enough to keep it going.. It was as heavy as all hell though .. Which is something I haven't wanted to do to the Evo .. Kind of defeats the purpose..FTOATH wrote:You got the right gear. There was heaps of spl cars at frankies. Im into sound quality. Unfortunately its expensive. My main concern is power.

So was thinking of maybe just leaving the Boston's front and rear, and putting in just the one sub .. So, maybe just use the punch 800 and the punch 400 to power it all ... Should be nice clean sound

Re: FTO Bonnet
Pretty much RnB ... I want to start to put it all in the Evo, but alas, I get no time... And just started a new job.. So can't take time off to work on it..FTOATH wrote:Sounds more appropriate. Should sound nice.
My fto is basically a tank. But my motto is: You may be faster than me but ill blow your f@cken ear drums. Not a fan of speed. Although i would love to turbo the fto. You got serious gear. Would love to hear your system. What kinda music you into?
In the FTO, it is a bit more simplistic.. I have the Headunit that was in the Sonata...
Cerwin Vega V-Max 65's splits
Cerwin Vega HED 69's in the shelf
Cerwin Vega V-Max 12.2
Cerwin Vega XL 300.1 powers the sub, and I think a Soundstream powers the front & Rear ...
