how much have you spent on your system

not including paying anyone to fit it etc just on the system and accesories not mdf and build materials etc cabling can be included
not rrp prices either just what it's cost you mines about 3000 with an rrp of over 4500

 

Crappy 80 stereo...plays CD's dunnit?

 

f*ck me that's expensive ballast

 

I just dont get it. But you either do or you dont.

I only really listen to the smiths so how would a million watt bass bin improve Lord Stevens LPs?

 

well i have the option to play dvd's on the headunit
i have the option of annoying shops buildings neighbours
i can hurt my friends without physically touching them
i also win competitions which sometimes have good prizes to help fund my addiction
and i'm not really into speed so i haven't spent much on performance and luv my tunes

 

Speed? Does the car move with all that in it?

 

120 for a kenwood cd player, and thats it....mr2 has amps, subs and pretty reasonable speakers as o.e. (for a '92 car its unbelieveable)

 

it moves ok it's a chipped tdi so has loads of torque

 

Mine stands me at 2800 at the moment

 

1500-2000


ish

 

170 for sony hu


160 jl xr650i components


100 mtx components amp


125 alpine type r sub


150 kenwood sub amp


50 changer


40 rear 6x9s


---------------------------


100 touchscreen


60 160gig hdd


25 512 mb ram


50 case


20 wireless network usb dongle


75 gps reciever


50 software for gps


so 1175 in total but i gussed and did upto 1000 in the vote!! lol yes new car alarm is next on the budget!!

 

lol security is a must mines gettin more secure all the time
tints help stop people being nosey
toad alarm with total closure helps with protection
delocked deadlocked doors
snap off steering wheel making it physicaly impossible to drive away if they get anywhere near that far
and a setup that would take me a good half an hour to get anywhere near removing any off it

it's a must if it attracts attention / spent alot on
i'd sort some security before fitting anything at the least a cheap alarm that will go off with a window smash / door opened

 

yeah alarm and maybe windows is next on my list of stuff to do, however i live in an okay area so itll be okay for now, now realy life or death emergency

 

My old mk1 I spent 3500 on sound system, did it all and got bored with it, decided it wasn't really my thing, havn't even got a stereo in my car now, sat in my cupboard gathering dust.

 

mr purple what where you running and what was it built for
sounds like a serious install please say it was a street bass beast

 

mine was about 1500 before it was all knicked. no security. thatll teach me. gettin a clifford alarm when money comes through from insurance


will

 

1500 and you where running sony subs

 

yup. thought they were good personally. good enuf for what i wanted!!





will

 

New Kenwood H/U - 40.

Cabling (mainly 4/8AWG) - 0.

RCA cables & sundries (blocks, connectrors etc) - 0.

Caliber 4ch amp - 30.

Speakers - 0.

As for alarms, I dont bother.

If some c*nt wants to steal anything they will stick a brick through the window, and they dont give a sh*t if you have a 300 alarm as nobody pays any attention to the f*cking things anyway.

 

if you can't tell the difference between a quality sub and a sony sub theres something wrong with your ears it's really easy to tell when listening to them

as for an alarm it helps a hell of alot i know i'd rather buy a new window than a new window plus system
for a start it's very off putting unless your stupid enough to leave it somewhere miles away from anyone
