Also, got my amplifier and subwoofer installed at Max Speed and Sound on North Oak Trafficway. They installed the same setup in my old Titan and did great work again. The amp is bolted to the back of the seat but the subwoofer can be moved. I like this setup because I can still have my full trunk available while having a system Sounds AWESOME, this sub and amp pumped in my crew cab truck and absolutely rattles the FR-S. Surprisingly enough there isn't much sound outside the cabin, which means no pissing off everyone else. Not a bad $120 investment in my happiness.
Hey man, what gauge wire did you run for your amp? 6?

I honestly cannot remember, I do know the size wire is perfect for around 800W or so max which worked out perfectly for me.

I have a TON of updates that I need to add here...crap

I have about 2800 or so, I've been daily driving 6 days a week recently so it's been going up quickly.

Lesson of the week: Don't drive drowsy:



Over $4900 in repairs, thankfully no ticket. I'm glad I wasn't hurt, but I'm lucky that I didn't hurt anyone else. Talk about learning my lesson.

Talk about no f*cks given lol
Smashes car, rebuilds car and starts all over again hahaha



On lowering you car I would highly recommend getting coilovers, get proper suspension not springs.

Heading home for the weekend, going to try to get the front spacers finally installed.

....And install the Kartboy pulley that's been sitting in the garage for most of the summer...

Stuff I'm looking at for future mods:
1. Some EL header (I'm very conflicted here, I plan on going turbo at some point in the far future. Very tempted to bite the bullet on the Tsudo header, no it isn't great quality but I'd have to get something new for a turbo anyway, and the FA20 is way out of my price range for a long time)
2. Front pipe (looking for catless and resonated, once again not much to spend here but I'm willing to pay for something that'll work well with future mods.)
3. footwell lighting (another enigma here, not really sure where to go, I just know what I want lol)
4. Underglow (blah blah it's ricy I LIKE IT and when done well it looks awesome IMO)

Probably other stuff too, Last night I had really bad insomnia and spent a good 3 hours brainstorming stuff. I SWEAR THE NEXT POST WILL ACTUALLY SHOW STUFF
