Wow! Sounds like a pretty impressive setup!

My friend's dad works for Fusion. When I have the cash I should be getting a full Fusion set up as well.

Just out of curiosity why does everyone buy fusion gear. I have heard only bad reports about the sq of fusion subs and speakers.

I am not trying to have a go at anyone, but I just have not seen fusion perform. If its the right price yeah go for it. I am not at all trying to say i have the best stereo around, no where near it, but for example, the Fusion WRX just made 140 db with 3 15's and a hell of a lot of power at the 2003 jamboree. I would have thought it may have performed a little better.

My car got 148 db with two 12's at jamboree, and i had a few bugs that i have been iorning out.

Honestly good luck man, i hope it all works out!

Happy Stereo-ing

well its everyone to their own .. its their car so they can do what they like .. i agree that fusion is probably not the best for power and spl and even sq for that matter ... but u gotta agree that their green aliens are pretty cool .. but yeah in car audio theres always something thats better than something else ... if u really wanted some power u'd try and get some adires and all these other american brands u've never heard off ... well i can't wait to see this install ... should should kick my pissy diy install

Should sound nice.

Why two caps though?

I thought you need 1 farad per 1000wrms. that setup is around 2000 wrms looking at the amps (580x2 + 500x2 = 2160wrms) thats a lot of power. I'm running an mtx amp with a 0.5 farad cap, no diming lights!

Sorry if i offended or pissed anyone off. Just saw he was using eclipse hu and splits and thought must be goin sq setup, that's why i was kind of curious about why the fusion gear?

[Redback]

the fusion 12" powerplants perform really well if your after nice booming bass. i aint going for spl as my box wont be ported im just going for a big bass (if that makes sence). the eclipse splits and rear six inch's will compensate for the sq. sq is my first priority as it is a dvd deck. i'll be in adelide a few weeks after its finished and in warnambull next weekend (if its finished) so if anyone want to see give us a pm.

my ford has a 1 12" powerplant in it and i was quite happy with the results i got from that. 133db. ported box though.

i might of forgot to mention it before but dont quote me on the outputs and stuff. as for the caps.... 1 per sub will make sure it hits hard and strong first time and every time. ill get the exact specs hopefully to you today but most likely not until sometime next week.

[«Cyph3r»]

Look foward to seeing pics of ur install when done.... sounds like it will be pretty showy looking install.

[Redback]

thats what im after. it's cool to see people drool at the car now they do the same with the stereo.

[Evil]

Should be good! Can't wait for the pics

[jabtronic]

My friend's dad apparently owns the WRX, she was telling me today that at a car show recently, someone stole 2 of the 3 Jona Lomu subs.

How on earth could anybody not have noticed?? Lol

With all due respect, dimming lights are a sign of bad system wiring and caps are a band-aid fix for a bigger problem.

Before you start buying caps, you need to have a good look at the wiring in the system. Then take a look at the charging system and power storage. If there is a problem, upgrade the battery and alternator before buying a cap.

You're right. But there was no dimming before the cap. It was just added just in case and the battery although not deep cycle is not standard. Some people with yellow tops and upgraded alts still run caps. Dimming lights are a bad sign but it doesn't happen to me All the wiring in my car is perfect (I've had a lot of practice) and also the wires are nice and short. Caps are only a band aid if you are having problems with dimming light before you fit 'em. But you are right if you are having electrical problems then look into the other parts first. A cap may not even help!
