Hey, just thought i'd say a few words about a car audio install I got a few days ago.

I started out looking for a good quality system and ended up going to FHRX.

The main reasons is common discount retail shops such as generally don't have a clue or the right brands and other 'quality' franchise places tend to overcharge.

You'd be hard pressed to get a better intall of the equipment and labour, considering how much time was actually spent was rediculously cheap.

Have a look at the texture in the A colum and then try to work out how they did it ;)

They also like to take lots of happy snaps http://zen.cable.nu/cgi-bin/photos.pl?titl...ion=car/audio1/ of the install as they go so you get to see all the stuff you otherwise wouldn't.

Yeha anyway... getting back to the Sound Off... 2 days after I got back my hifi the SQ (Sound Quality) comp was on I came along, entered and managed to win 2nd in ameture street.

It was a good day dispite the rain and i'd really encourage anyone out there to come along.

Free food and donouts and chocolate!!! =D

What the judges are looking for in SQ is... well... quality. (not quantitiy)... The general idea is that a live recording should sound like a live peformance.

Even if you don't have a hifi its a really good oppertunity to come along and see and listen to what other people have done.

There's all kinds of budgets, from high end show cars to DIY < $1000 systems.

One of the better scores actually went to one that was under $1000 simply because it was well setup. (MB Quart fronts, 100W clarion sub).

More info on the event can be found at:

The next round should be coming along some time in May. I'll post some info in the events section when it gets closer.

Cleutin, they're the sanctioned dB drags champ, not CAASQ.

The sanctioned CAASQ (Car Audio Australia Sound Quality) competition series in NSW is run by us and while these sometimes coincide with the dB Drag events, they are two totally different competitions. The dates for the upcoming CAASQ (not SPL) sound offs are:

NSW Round 3: Sunday 27th May (coincides with SHOOKU's BBQ)

NSW Round 4: Sunday 24th June (conincides with Doran SPL event)

NSW Round 5: Saturday 28th July

NSW Round 6: Sunday 26th August (conincides with Doran SPL event)

NSW Round 7: Saturday 29th September

National Finals: Saturday 13th October

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
