Well depends what you want really... If you just want it put in your car to play music, I dont think it matters where you go (too much... there are some places that would fist you)

Anyway have you bought the gear already? If not I would probably recomend going to have a talk to them first. From my experience I found they go in to more detail, explain to you what does what, why you do one thing over another, why for what your doing one product is better than another etc.

Not knowing the research you have done, a properly good system is not only has a clear sound, but its staged properly etc. If all you want to do is just listen to music, and really dont care about how its been put together, you probably dont need to go to that extent.

But to answer the question, yes they are good. It is the ONLY place I will ever buy car sound gear again.

Sweet thanks man :D

Btw i have already spoken to them over the phone to get a quote.

Looking at getting Alpine all round and considering that they are a major supplier of them, i'll stick with Northfield i recon for the install. Had a friend who got his sound system put in at JB and said that they weren't to good. So i'll just give them a skip!

all the strathfield and jb installers are shit dont use them .. full stop..

custom shops are always best.. and i wouldnt recommend alpine all around .. inside the cabin yes .. for subs not to great but they do have wicked amps and subs and amps look insane too .. the subs sound tinny imo but your call I like JL subs for deep bass.. depends which level you go but anything over w3 is wickd

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
