Option Audio is very well marketed. Their screens and headrests are great value and very popular.

I'm not so keen on some of their other gear, for example off their website:

"OAX3200 the ultimate – need more be said 3000WRMS Class D amplifier. Producing some award winning DB records"

Having tested this amp, and knowing that we currently hold all (yes every class) Australian Records, I disagree with this statement.

Also, take a look at the "Option Audio" splits vs Focal splits.

If you want a cheap screen that lasts for about a week, Option Audio are great.

If you want cheap, rip off copies of speakers , Option Audio are great.

If you want a cheap amp that makes half it's rated power, Option Audio are great.

I have been using the products for well over a year. Although havent had any major failures, i didnt appreciate the weekly phone calls telling me that i have to be selling as much as JB HIFI.

At the end of the day a high end specialist car audio store sells quality equipment and i find my customers prefer handmade and proven products and are willing to spend the money on a well researched and built item. The Option Audio or SOUND MAGUS as they come badged were not a good seller, and i was quite happy to tell the distributor to stop telling me what to do with my business.

First of all how the hell do you know what my mates have done with their systems and that they haven't tried dd and removed them... so don't call me a liar when you have no grounds to do so....

second of all that thread all i see is you talking about your product and no one else talking about it and several other people stating facts about your product and others...

At the end of the day dd isn't a horrible product and is a reasonable unit. I just don't get why you have to come on here and bag out another companies products and support your own, when before you came on this thread your product dd was never brought up in the thread.... Don't get me wrong I am not saying your product is crap but it's also not the best in the world...

    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
