Rather than a full on Db comp, couldn't we show up all these other wanna be shows by having a TRUE sound off.

Where the winner is judged on sound quality, install qulity, use and layout of components etc, instead of just who squeezes the most shit in and can make one note the loudest.

We are Skyline drivers after all, not excel drivers!

Marc, as in me? lol :D I don't have any industry experience or anything so I don't know how good I'd be at judging, but I'm more than happy to give a layman's opinion on quality of sound, installation etc. I might be able to get Chris Rogers (from Sound Off) to come for a wander if you're interested though, to add to the professional judging.

True - maybe extra points for self-installed systems or something? Dunno. Fwiw I'm more impressed by a system that has not had bucketloads of money thrown at it, but still sounds good, regardless of what it looks like (to an extent of course). Kind of an anti "chequebook competitor" stance :cheers:

The trouble with having a "install comp" style of judging means whoever paid a car sound place the most money wins.

Not necessarily, I've seen mega dollar systems that have very a poor finish and sound like shit.

And I've seen simple backyard jobs that are very neat and tidy and sound good for the money.

But I know what you mean, I think normally there is an Expert and an Amateur Class, with different Total RMS classes.

eg

Amateur

1-200 Watt

200 - 500 Watt

500 Watt +

Expert

1-200 Watt

200 - 500 Watt

500 Watt +

    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....

    • Nah, lots of insurance repairs on V36 and V37 for pedestrians deployments. Reasons ranging from possums, to extremely severe potholes have deployed them. However, paying for the full repair can still be upto $5k AU some people have noted!
    • Hi, i got 1998 r34 4 door auto abs model and its manual converted with bigbox when i bought it .
