    Civic and corolla 1/4 times

    Lol, yes, i'm just bored at work and 300 was the last movie i saw.

    but the F in the 1ZZ-FE stands for fuel consumption and economy

    if u must compare you need to find a G tuned toyta engine, for the b16's case u'd probably be going all the way back to the later generations of the 4age.

    but at the end of the day, a performance engine a 1zze does not make.

    want to sound turbo'd

    Its the old camry, just sell it coz no matter how much u spend, it won't look vip, nor pimpin nor sporty nor anything other then a family mover.

    save up and buy the new one instead or better yet, a real sports car.

    Seat Covers for seats with "airbags"

    in General Toyota & Other Car Discussions

    Posted

    Airbag compatible covers are made with the sides stiched with a tearable cotton thread designed to shear off when the bag goes.

    The other commons design is to use normal sticting on the sides but have the material perforated on the internal bit over the airbag and overlaid with a thin layer of rippable cotton.

    And i think the airbags are built inside the side wall of the seat (right under that "airbag" cloth badge)

    Bascially its a matter of how you are going to try justify stuff to the insurer if u ever needed to i guess.

    Tweeters - Adding a second pair

    in Audio/Video/Electronics

    Check my garage dude, you'll find most tweeters fit perfectly into those airvents on the dash.

    YOu should be able to pick up good ones off ebay by themselves. Mine came with inline crossovers so i just wired them up to the respective speaker wires. Or you can goto ***** smiths and build your own inline cross over (very easy) to the the job.

    Hey guys :)

    I've had a nice idea that will be classy if excecuted well or possibly turn to sh!t if it's a dodgy job. Part of it involves adding another pair of tweeters (tweeters only - not the midrange driver) which is something I've never considered or attempted. I'm hoping someone can advise me how to hook them up.

    The obvious answer is using the Alpine crossovers that are already running my first set. Can I simply connect the new tweeters up to the tweeter terminals on the original crossover as well? Or will I have to run new wires from my amp (which still has 2 spare channels) to a new set of crossovers to the new tweeters?

    The first idea seems all too easy and I'm concerned that power will be sapped from the other components (original tweeter and midrange driver), but then I think, it's only a tweeter, right? Hmmm... I can think of no problems with the latter idea but it will definitely take more time and perhaps more money (?), but I'm not afraid of that if the first idea is a no-go.

    Which brings me to my next question: can you buy decent tweeters by themselves (as opposed to in a complete component system)? Is it even possible buy a set of tweeters that come with their own crossovers (without the midrange driver) in the event that I take up the second plan of action? Can you buy crossovers by themselves? Or would I have to buy a whole new componenet system? That would not be cool at all.

    I'm hoping the first plan will be the answer but in this case I'd like to do the better-quality job rather than the easier job. So hit me with your knowledge car audio buffs :)
