Hey everyone,

I've just bought the new JVC KW-AX810 Double Din DVD player for my car. Does anyone know where to get a cheap & reliable install in Perth? Or even people know how to install and wouldn't mind spending an afternoon with me? I'll provide a case of beer and snaggers! :lol:

I've heard good things about Alberts Cannington, but I find them a tad bit expensive.

Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated!

Regards,

Jason

LOL at Strathfeild! And dont go to Car stereo city too!

I have the same screen in my car, your going to love it!

Westside car audio are very good! Osborne Park, and Cannington. I have a friend who manages the Ozzy Park store, although im not sure if he is still there. Go see a guy named Ken at Ozzy Park, or Troy at Cannington.

I hope that helps!

Hahahaha Strathfield would be the last place I'd go for installs :|

Caity, I got a friend who works at the JB hifi in Cannington and she got it for me for....let's just say...really cheap. It retails for $1099 but I got about umm...close to 35% off that. So if you want me to hook you up give me a yell :)

Alright I'll give Westside Car Audio Ozzy Park a go, wish me luck! :P

Eeeeeeeeeeeep can't wait to put in my Type X Pros >.<

Oh and one more question, do you guys know if the new headunit can utilize the steering wheel controls? If yes, what is the part called?

If I can source it from the net I'm sure it'll be cheaper, eBay FTW!

Yeah a lot of my mates go to Alberts in Cannington, they say it's really good.

What about JB-Hi Fi, they don't seem too bad anyone got any feedback?

My mate does audio installs. He's mobile so he comes to you. It's his own business and he's been around for awhile. I've had experiences with JB-HiFi (shocking) and I wouldn't let anyone touch my cars except for my mate. His business is called San Diablo Custom Car Audio.

Anyways, if you want my mate Sree to install for you, give him a call and tell him Reena sent you. He'll look after you. PM me for his details. :D

Awesome. He knows his stuff. He's fixed a lot of dodgy installs, even from some of the "professional" places. Price-wise he's very competitive considering he comes to you. :D

Are you all from SOR?

Hmmm this person doesn't seem very reliable. He told me on Friday afternoon that he can come around on Saturday and will give me a call before 12:30pm. So I sat at home waiting from 11am till 1pm. Knowing that he wasn't going to come I went out and did my own thing. He ended up calling me at 1:45pm, to which I didn't pick up as I was in the middle of doing something.

I got an email from him at about 2:30pm asking if he can come around on Sunday since he's really busy Saturday, so I replied saying yeah sure what time would he like to come over? Just give me a call when he's free.

Well it is Sunday night now and he still hasn't called or replied to my email, so I'm guessing he's not interested in my business. I was actually going to do a bit of overhaul too if he was reasonably priced and did a good job of installing and tuning my Headunit.

Anyway, I will be giving Westside Car Audio a visit tomorrow to finding out how they are.

Cheers,

Jason

thanks for the analysis jasee. i was gona give this guy a call but not anymore :)

maybe we should turn this into a post where we can detail our experiences audio shops/installers in Perth..the good and the bad.

just a thought? :P opinions anyone?

anywho if u dont mind the travel. u can try West Side Morley too..The guy that manages think his name is pronounced

"Yarn" he is very knowledgable and gives quite competitive prices compared to other large franchises. got my splits n amp installed there.

Bad places: dont go Alberts morley. one of the doods that worked there is a real pr*ck, these guys dont want ur business.

cheers, my 2c

Hmmm. I'll have to talk to him. I know he's been quite busy lately. Seriously, please don't let this put you off him. He's a genuine guy and sometimes things come up.

I agree with dayve about Alberts Morley. Also JB HiFi Whitfords = big time con artists.

EDIT: Just talked to him - family situation has come up, hence he was not able to get in touch with you. He's really sorry. He's txted you to arrange a time for tomorrow.

      Does any one know if the trd sportivo suspension for the 2017 facelift corolla fielder fits the 2013 prefacelift version? Is the chassis the same? Thanks for the help.

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.
