i am new for the car audio things. it is my first system, not too sure how good it works. still need to buy a pair of front speaker. EVERYTHING is not been installed.

car: R33 GTS-T

have Kicker ZX750.1 amp 1 chanel mono

Kicker DUAL 2*CVR Subwoofer 1600watts max

Kicker DS6930 rear speaker

Kenwood 2 din CD player, not too sure the model.

i need a suggestion for front speaker choosing, if any pro here can help.

for the amp, i think it only support sub. do i need another amp to support speakers?

not too sure how much the installation will cost as well.

THX guys.

any answer would help for me.

in answer to your question,

yes your amp is a monoblock made to power your subwoofer

it will not run your front speakers

no, you dont need an amp to run the speakers, they can be connected to the headunit and work fine.

Your question is as hard to answer as how long is a piece of string?

you havent told us much about what your looking for?

budget, sound quality?? what?

The installation on the equipment you have is absolutley simple. you should not spend a cent on it, have a look on these forums or possibly others for guides on how to install stereo equipment, when i got my first car and stereo i was quoted over $300 from jb for a simple car install, subs speakers amps hu etc.

It took me under 2 hours for the first time with no guides or prior expeerience, everything is pretty much simple as yours is only a basic system(so far)

I think any options you choose your system will sound great, kickers are great and you seem to have subwoofers and an amplifieer that will absolutley shake your car!

How much do you want to spend... That is the question.

I would recommend running a second amp for the front speakers, if you don't the sub will drown out everything else, as head units only provide 50w max.

If you give us a budget we can recommend some equipment

THX GUYS,

sorry for my language, cus English is not my first language, i didn't explan everything clearly.

i don't want spend too much on audio. budget would be $1500, paid 800 already for those used kicker things but good condition.

what i am looking for was just simplely want nice and clear sound with strong bass response.

i found some cars with nice sub, but hardly to hear speakers which i don't like at all. i would like the sound be strong and clear with nice balance between splits and subs.

as NATHO 33 said, it cost $300 for the installation in JB. i will do some DIY there. got some AMP kit, get back seat removed, and go from there.

THX FOR EVERYONE. got some ideas now.

cheers

You've already got a woofer why do you want more bass response? you might as well get 6.5" splits of some sort with tweeters and increase treble response so that you get clarity instead of unnecessary/excess bass

      Did tie rods. Steering now not "springing" back.

      Yep, there's a very minor drift left that happens a few seconds after letting go of the steering wheel, but not enough to bother me. Enjoying the car still!

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      Sounds good.  I don't 100% understand what your getting at here. When you say, "I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down" do you mean this - there is a panel with factory paint, without any prep work, they paint the entire panel with primer, then colour then clear?  If that's what you mean, sure it will "stick" for a year, 2 years, maybe 3 years? Who knows. But at some stage it will flake off and when it does it's going to come off in huge chunks and look horrific.  Of course read your technical data sheet for your paint, but generally speaking, you can apply primer to a scuffed/prepped clear coat. Generally speaking, I wouldn't do this. I would scuff/prep the clear and then lay colour then clear. Adding the primer to these steps just adds cost and time. It will stick to the clear coat provided it has been appropriately scuffed/prepped first.  When you say, "but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat" I am imagining someone not masking up the car and just letting overspray go wherever it wants. Surely this isn't what you mean?  So I'll assume the following scenario - there is a small scratch. The person manages to somehow fill the scratch and now has a perfectly flat surface. They then spray colour and clear over this small masked off section of the car. Is this what you mean? If this is the case, yes the new paint will eventually flake off in X number of years time.  The easy solution is to scuff/prep all of the paint that hasn't been masked off in the repair area then lay the paint.  So you want to prep the surface, lay primer, then lay filler, then lay primer, then colour, then clear?  Life seems so much simpler if you prep, fill, primer, colour then clear.  There are very few reasons to go to bare metal. Chasing rust is a good example of why you'd go to bare metal.  A simple dent, there is no way in hell I'm going to bare metal for that repair. I've got enough on my plate without creating extra work for myself lol.
