anyone know of any nearby that do good work? The plan was to do the entire audio job myself, which so far has been going great, but now it seems that the boot is somewhat out of my league, as i dont really want to learn how to make a custom box in my own car...

The original plan was an MDF dual slot port box for 2 15's... ive since thrown that idea out because it would be frigging hard to make and weigh a shit load... and i couldnt really get the litreage i wanted...

im looking to have a nice, show style box made for the boot... as far as design goes, i dont intend on using the boot for anything else, but i am going to want to get to the amps and what not...

i know of a couple places around that do good work, and im sure they charge through the roof... but if it is of high, guarenteed quality work, then i dont mind...

does anyone know anyone in that business? or dealt with anyone?

can you suggest any companies?

Several people have had work done by Marty here, I can think of myself and Wolverine for a start.

Others include

- Doran Pro Audio

- Precision Car Engineering, Carlton

In terms of labour rates you'll find that they aren't different to your bulk installer (eg Strathfield, JB). But they have high standards of quality and won't take shortcuts, whereas the quality can vary greatly at those big retail outlets depending on the installer.

yeah theres no way strathfield or JB are touching this car... this is the only part i need done by a profesional...

i already know the guys over at doran pretty well... but who doesnt these days...

and i know of a few others around, theres one in Ryldamere... diamond car audio or something like that... i know where it is, just forgotten the name...

i only need the box done too, everything else i can do myself... but thanks for the info, ill check em out :rofl:

    • Give it 40psi and send it to the moon
    • I suspect 550s are on the large side for happy operation with a stock/Nistune RB20 ECU. The Hitachi ECU doesn't love short pulse width operation, and the RB20 doesn't need much fuel at idle. Big injectors can be unpleasant. This could be contributing.
    • Yeah, I still don't know why the idle speed control can't catch the falling RPMs. In the Consult logs I see the AAC duty cycle rising, but suddenly it goes lean and the engine stalls. Anyways, the relevance here is the DW 550cc injectors are probably the same. So if OP has similar issues I would be tempted to finger those injectors as problematic for whatever reason vs the ECU failing for some reason.
    • Yeah, sort of blurring two different things together, aren't we? I just meant O2 feedback closed loop. I used to have a 0-1V LCD meter on my dash, wired directly to the O2 sensor signal. So you could easily see what it was doing. Normal running it would flick back and forth nicely. Slow down to an idle and it would keep flicking, as the ECU tried to servo to maintain stoich, but it would slow down as each swing happened until it would stay at one end of the scale. As I said above, the sensor heater is not enough to keep it hot enough when there is also little heat in the exhaust flow. Give it a blip and it would start swinging again, then peter out again. Meanwhile, idle speed control would run just fine, because unrelated.
    • It's not even O2 feedback, it's just simply when the ECU sees the closed TPS signal for whatever reason the idle will start steadily dropping until the engine dies. With the TPS adjusted to not trigger closed TPS it will idle at some ridiculously high RPM and something like 6 degrees of timing. In the absence of getting eyes on it personally and a lot of quality time doing diagnostics I couldn't tell you what the real problem was but it was interesting nonetheless
