What is that a Z4 3i or si? Are you keeping it stock? Any internal modifications made to it?

I do not know about you guys but that image looks pretty weird.

It's nice and it was cheap. It's all I need to get by and fuel economy is decent. I just want my dad's 2007 Camry.

haha yea when I have the money... I'll demand a Z4... just need to get through med school haha

I got a '92 honda Accord DX. It was handed down to me from my sister and she nvr took care so I am fixing it up. I already chaged the master cylinder and muffler and will replace the water pump and timing belt by the end of the summer. I need to buy 4 good quality speakers and a head unit with an MP3 player jack and removable face plate, anyone have any suggestions? I would like to spend 350-400, but no more than 500...

Depending on where I'm going.....
'68 Camaro, mildly hot-rodded
OR
Toyota Yaris.



Yesh, opposite ends of the spectrum.


EDIT: I shall post pics, though not of my own, cause I'm too lazy to find my camera. Just so you know what they are.

Camaro (Closest I could find that looks like mine, bad rez, sorry)

How big are the speakers for your Honda? 6 x 9s? 6s? And for your header unit, I suggest looking for the Kenwood Excelon series. I got a KDC-X990 for $190 and it does its job pretty damn well.

I drive my parents' 98 toyota camry right now.

Anyway I'm hoping to get a loan to get the Nissan 350Z once I get a full time job.

Are you looking for 2-way or 3-way? If it does not matter to you and you just want high quality speakers, I recommend getting JBL or Infinity.

My mom's Toyota Corolla. I drive it to work and use it to drive my sister to work. I don't plan to get my own car until after college. Everyone I tell thinks it's really weird, like it's blasphemy to not have, or even want, a car. Excardon me for not wanting to spend (large amounts of) money that I don't need to!

I drive my mum's '99 or '00 BMW 528i


EDIT: JBL is all showy packaging, like the Alienware of speakers. Klipsch (if they do car audio, I'm not sure), Pioneer, Alpine

except that alienware is actually a damn good computer. I'm guessing you don't have an alienware, know nobody who has one, and look down on it mainly because you can't afford it?

Nikzad
07-11-2007, 02:57 PM
no, I can afford an alienware, but since I have heard complaints from my friends who have them and it's supposedly gotten worse once Dell bought them, I don't think it would be worth my money

to clarify, I have heard that you pay a lot for the case

Audi A4 (the new version) i also drive my parents 2007 Honda Civic. it's pretty nice, but when i am at my parents in Geneva, i don't feel like driving there, so I fly from Zurich every 3-4 months. i do take road trips there every 5 weeks, when my job allows me time off

Nikzad
07-11-2007, 03:35 PM
thats so wierd, when I first saw your name, I assumed you drove a TT
Zurich is nice, are you a native Swiss?
my uncle lives in Geneva, coincidentally enough, but I've yet to visit him there...it's only been a few months since he moved there from work

[LightMare]
07-11-2007, 03:41 PM
no, but TT is nice. it's TT because you know the crying face? T.T or TT.TT yeah. Zurich is a nice city, but there is quite a bit of pollution in some areas. Geneva is a very nice city. but my french is not so good. yeah, Native Swiss. but i'm not a chocolatier :P

Nikzad
07-11-2007, 03:46 PM
I asked if you were native Swiss because I had a long layover in Zurich once and EVERYBODY smokes
maybe that's why the pollution is so bad haha
I also noticed a few cool things - going back to cars - although BMWs and Benz are classy here, they are taxis in Zurich...high rollers drive Audis ^^
so if you are not French speaking, then you speak German? there is also a chance you speak Italian, right? Switzerland is cool in that depending on where in the country you are, there are different primary languages spoken



PS - awesome train system

A 2-way speaker has just a tweeter and a woofer, the 3-way speaker combines what the 2-way has and places a midrange (depending on brand). This usually results in better and smoother sound. The higher you go the more things you get and the clearer the sound.

I did not really want to revive this thread, though I did say I would post up pictures of my car when I got the chance (3 months later... LOL)

It no hungry for gasoline, it hungry for hot pocket!!!

Instead of purchasing the TEIN product I mentioned in my first post, I decided to go with Eibach's pro-kit lowering springs. Me and my dad dropped the car 1.1 inch and it took about five hours.
