    Would you trade your RX-8 for a MSP

    I was told by a dealer that synthetic on the RX-8 will void the warranty. Although sometimes I think Mazda would void your warranty if you slip a wet fart in your seat!

    Are the seats too low/uncomfortable?

    All I would want is bigger side bolsters. And if you dont like P5 seats, try sitting in a Saturn SC2. Those are bad seats!

    Gotham & Fathom by JL

    If those #'s are correct it should put JL inline with other high end audio brands. We are talking about a lot of low freq. sound here. The average home theatre listener would prob. never use these products to their full potential. Amazing none the less (jerkit)

    New GTO guys realizing their cars are slow.

    Reading all of that makes me laugh. These guys like to call our cars wanna be cars, or they tell us there not real cars. (uhm) wtf did I not just drive up in it? Any sane person can see that they are real, just like my shoes are real. They think that because their cars have BIG V8's that it...

    Post your subwoofer(s) setup here

    It's all in the sig. And by the way, where the subs are mounted can have an effect on the "sound" or output of a sub system. It's called the cabin gain effect.

    2 subs vs 1 sub

    Don't always look at the "600W"or "1200" rating on subs. these numbers are usually "peak" numbers used by the marketing department as a way to fool people into buying a lesser product. As far as the 1 vs 2 question, unless your willing to drop a load of cash on a high quality sub 2 will usually...

    My Car Got Hurt Today

    No, the streets arn't an option because in the mornings we have truck traffic backed up for 2-3 blocks. My luck it would be hit there too. I guess it's just one of those rare things that happens. If I were dirving a s*** box I would have been in the clear. Just one of those things! Oh Yeah, I...

    My Car Got Hurt Today

    Where I work there are only 4 spots for us to park (i know all the people I work with). 2 infront of the gatehouse and 2 behind, with 2 inbound lanes on one side and 1 outbound on the other. I'm screwed no matter what I do!

    Kick A$$ System! (or not?)

    In a pinch you can amp the front speakers, the 03's have a factory tweet. If your not crazy about sound quality, I think you would be suprised with the sound when they are set up and crossed over properly. I did this for a while before I got my Focals. My friend has the Infinity ref. component...

To make a long story short, the gate broke off and flew 4ft. and hit my car. The...

    How fast can you do a 1-2 shift before you are hurting the tranny?

    What ever you do don't force the tranny into 2nd. My friend went through two trannys this way. Broke the shift forks both times, and screwed the syncros.

    Considering gettin' a tC

    I think the tC is great, both in looks and power. The TRD supercharger is reported to push output to 200hp with stock everything else. Can't complain about that! (drive)

    Deadening against road noise (bazillion questions)

    Do not use pink acoustic deadening. This stuff is ment for your home. Use products designed for the car ie. Brown Bread, Dyanmat, Accumat....etc. Some of these products absorb sound and others add mass to a given panel inside the car to stop the transmission of sound through the panel.
