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...

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.

      It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

      Blue slip

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
