Hi all,

I have two of these but I have bought a new sub, so I will only need one.

20503741.MVC901F.JPG

Kicker KX400.1 monoblock, single channel subwoofer amplifier.

Let's face it: you're achin' for bass. And with Kicker's KX400.1, you'll get bass in spades! This Class D subwoofer amp pumps out 200 watts of pure Kicker power to help your sub send you to low-frequency paradise.

You can tune your bass with the built-in low-pass crossover (variable 50-200 Hz at 12 dB per octave) to best suit your vehicle's acoustics and your tastes. Subs also often waste energy trying to reproduce ultra-low frequencies (way out of the range of hearing) — that's why the KX400.1 is outfitted with a 25 Hz subsonic filter, which keeps those performance-robbing frequencies away.  

For even more bass, you can dial in the KickBass boost for up to 18 dB of hard-hitting bass at 40 Hz. Kicker even includes a dash-mountable remote bass level control that makes on-the-fly adjustments a snap. If you'd like to add a KX400.1 to your system, but have a factory receiver with no preamp outputs, no problem: simply hook it up with the speaker-level inputs. For multi-amp system expansion, take advantage of the built-in preamp outputs to make installation easier.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
