SPL is mad, sittin in daniels swift with like 140db of bass in ya ears is an awesome experience

low bass rocks too, u feel it more than u hear it :)

if it was 140db of treble im sure i would feel lots of pain in my ears, but for some reason bass doesnt affect them :)

not bad miles, make a larger ported box for it maybe with slot ports or something perhaps you could make 135+

Why would you want a road driven car that goes faster than 110??

Do you go to the Northern Territory often?

valid point but a stupid comparison. sorry don't mean to be rude but it is a silly comparison.

you are comparing the speed of a car to the db of a sound system.

CAR- you strive for a good top speed and in the process you get a relatively fast bottom end. you enjoy your bottom end due to the higher top end and you make use of both whenever and where ever possible.

SYSTEM- you strive for more db and you don't get more quality at lower db relative to your peak db. you can't use your peak as you will go deaf in the process so you are left with a system that has no complete use other than to show off or win awards. same thing if you ask me.

i don't know, i might sound silly myself but this is my 2c's

George, All depends on who you are and what you like. Some people like Sound Quality, Some people like SPL, and don't care about the quality. Just like some people prefer rice over performance, for example. All comes down to user preference basically. SPL is harder to acheive than you think, it's not as simple as chucking in a big amp and big sub into a car. Alot of work and factors come into play when you're trying to acheive big SPL. You have to play with different boxes, different box positions, different porting techniques. There are other factors, but i'm no SPL expert and won't bother getting into all of that. It's just the same as getting more power out of a car - sometimes it's not as simple as it seems. You can't just bolt on a T88 and blast 2bar+ into the engine, more factors come into play. See my point?

to each their own ryan. i have no problem with anyone spending their hard earned cash on a system or a gaybrush as you put it for example.

i like my music dude, more than you might think after reading my comments on this thread but i still can't warrant a 140db system. that's just like paying for the blood to flow out of your ears.

besides, you know me, performance always comes before image.

Guest [ryan]

Eh, not all systems are 140db :)

120db is louder than you think, 140db is f**ken loud. But yeah like you said, Each to their own. I would prefer to spend a bit of money on performance, bit on looks, and a bit on a nice Sound Quality system, I prefer to enjoy listening to the music rather than be able to gloat about its db rating, but thats me. :)

It's all good :)

Very Much Agree Dion, Photos of the Terios @ Sas are up now, goto www.froggy.com.au/nissan and follow the Sydney Auto Salon Link!!

Thanks for the feedback Ryan, I would not say that I have the best system, but my result impressed a few people that day and my self. Since then I have had a new box made up with thanks to Oscar and im planning to get a 4CHN Jaycar AMP for more power, so when I goto my next SPL day or event, I can hopefully hit them high 130.0's

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
