Remember that Phoenix Gold amp and r.e sub combination you recommended, im going ahead with it but just for re asurance are phoenix gold any good as ive never used their products before? and if you could choose between that alpine headunit that i have and the pioneer one you recomended which one would you go for, as the pioneer has 4 6v outputs plus burr brown dac, do you think its sound quality is better than the alpine? thanks again

I have recently purchased a new Alpine headunit --> http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/product_in...90a61cb79550e31 i have had a few people telling me it's a very bad headunit because of the glidetouch being very akward, breaking e.t.c if this is so what other headunits do you guys reccomend? my max budget is £270. thanks

Thanks tigz, will go with first option if all goes planned! one more question bud, my new alpine headunit should be arriving this week ---> http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/product_in...48e380f293f85fe a lot of people have been telling me that this is a very bad headunit because of the glide touch, if i do change it for something different, and my budget will reach £270 what would you recommend?

Hi guys, im nagging myself at the moment because i have no clue whatsoever about which sub and amp to choose from!? i have been recommended JL, Crystal and R.E. My budget is £400. and the limited size for my sub is 12" though id prefer a 10" because im going for quality over big sound. Suggestions . . . . style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Hi everyone, ive recently purchased a new Alpine headunit and was looking to run a decent pair of 6x9's on a stealth shelf and a 4channel amp which i could connect to a sub in the future (money reasons) my budget is around £400, any suggestions? cheers

They any good? got any other reccomendations?! :?

Im looking to buy my coilovers, i was thinking H&R? any other good suggestions??

Just wondering if you guys could tell me what the best coilovers are? i was thinking H&R? :?

Thanks Guys!!!!

I aint looking for head breaking bass boys, im looking for more quality than quantity, the xxx is out of my price range as im going for a custom built fibre glass install, so its either the crystal or the R.E? And im more bothered about a good overall bass with EXTREMELY good quality precision . . .

Does anyone have an idea if R.E. Subs are any good? i have still not purchase my crystal comp 8 and i was thinking of buying an R.E. S.E 10V4? Any suggestions?? thanks guys.

My friend is purchasing a 1.4TD sport and is very worried, as he is finding difficulties to find an exhaust system/backbox for the model? and an induction kit, he would love the BMC, but is that availiable for the 1.4TD? Could any of you guys help my friend in need, and also give some more tips on anything else he could do for his 1.4TD. Thanks style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

I have recentley purchased an order on a load of I.C.E gear as follows; 1.Pioneer Headunit `DEH-P77MP` 2.Crystal CPe 60t 6.5" components 3.Crystal Comp 8" sub 4. 2 way Crystal CAM 200.2 amp.

Parents went for the 75bhp, insurance reasons ha ha, though im still happy and will be picking it up next week. You were saying yesterday tigz that i should get a 3 piece grill, do you recommend, or shall i just stick with the standard bumper and paint it? btw does anyone know of any DTM mirrors for the Lupo? thanks again Tigz!

Cheers guys! and its a pleasure to join the forum. Btw i think im deffo going for the billet wheels 8.5 rear and 8.0 on the front

Cheers man, thanks! though what about wheels??

Sup guys, im going for a euro look with my Lupo, what front bumper and rear bumper would u recommend? im having evrything smoothed, or dont i even need front and rear bumpers? or if you have any other suggestions on the body please let me know. also like to know, what you guys think are the best wheels (euro look) at the moment? how big can i go without rubbing arches and decreasing perfomance, though i do want some PHAT rims.
