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.

You only make yourself look stupid spouting BS like that. :banana:

Perhaps you should read this thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Fu...em-t202203.html

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...

      Google tells me that's a Japanese Rat Snake... 2m long? Man I think Australia has traumatised me to think all snakes are dangerous unless they're pythons. Also... "16 years later..." is that a record on SAU @PranK?

      Yep, I really miss mine. I dont, however, miss it's understeer. Hard to find a genuine 'Sport' model these days. That sounds awesome! Good fun and great result!  I'd love to do a 1/4 in mine now that its reasonably healthy with the tune. I last did a run in my white GTR, I think it was a 12.3 and I can't remember the mph and I think the little E90 might be quicker.

      FWIW, I made 372kW on a Mainline dyno, with a stock motor (bar head studs & usual bolt ons) on E85 (pretty timid timing in the mid range) and it blew up after a year of track use. Probably got like 5~6 Wakefield track days and 1x skid pan somewhere in between.

      Plus, if you want to shoot for over 300rwkW, the Z32 won't really cut it and retaining the PowerFC is getting to be a poor choice. You're going to be much happier with management that can actually see what's going on and have a hope of stopping it from going bad when something breaks (think oil pump). So, the $$ situation is probably different to what you think it is.

      350-400kw will not keep that basically stock motor basically stock very long, especially for track only use. It will decide to need a rebuild pretty quickly. I'd go smaller, and not cheap out with a Pulsar item based on older tech. Get a G25 550/660. Just better in every way. Don't think about changing a turbo until AFTER you change your injectors (S15 injectors x6? What CC are those?) and coils/fuel pump. They won't keep up with any aftermarket turbo.
