  5. hey guys another question for you :) i live near the north east snow fields thus it's quite cold up here. Recently we've had a heap of snow/ice/frost in the mornings and on weekends i work at 5am so it's still frozen solid then. The other day we had a dump of snow and it froze solid on my car, i only had time to clear the front windscreen so i could make it to work (10mins away, i live in the bush sorta) thus my backwindow was still about an inch of ice >< i listened to my music on the way in (turned it way down in town, i dont like to woken up early either :P) but with my sub going in the back by the time i got to work it was all cracked up? Should i be worried about this? having my sub like this wont damage my seals etc? thanks for any help on this.. btw sub is Sony Explod 12" Sealed 1000watt sub with 5500watt Amp with JVC head unti in 01 ascent seca liftback :D cheers
  6. This happened to our friend Ralph down melb late last year with his lexus lx 470>< Cops found it trashed a few weeks later (susspesnion, breaks etc shot) and it looked like it'd been used in a ram raid.. luckily whoever did this isnt going to reproduce... they left a packet of frangers in the car xD
  7. If your buying a new HU my suggestion is dont be cheap! Just putting in good quality head unit to replace my stock unit i've had my audio sounding better then alot of my mates. The best bit is i spent a few hundred on my system... most of them spent $1500+... Rolla ftw! :D What wattage is that Sub btw? Be careful with what amp you get as well :) if you can try to stick to main stream brands unless someone can vouch for you that it'll work well :) Pretty sure some people have managed to hook up the steering controls? is yours wired or IR? haha putting in a new HU, Sub and Amp isnt that hard, all you need is the basic tools, plenty of spare time, someone to supply cuppa's and a handy diagram with the Toyota Wiring Diagrams BUT!!! Always disconect the - Terminal on your battery first as well....
  8. lol no ones gonna notice that it's only fwd with the engine in the front either... XD lol puegot...

    scooter

    just dont ride it around the weeks comming up to July 1st when the cops are trying to make up for their un booked quota haha i know the cops around here (north east vic) wont care unless you annoy them but that wont be the case everywhere of course,..
  10. hey mate i just went through putting a sub in myself into my rolla :P ive been told (this is most likely incorrect but someone can correct me) that stock toyota HU rarely have rca cables (the rca carry the signal for the sub from the HU to the amp in your case) and even then it's best to put in an aftermarket HU. A few more things to note are your power cables, grounding cables , speaker cables and dont forget the fuses! Make sure that whatever guage cable you get for the power to run from the battery to the amp has an inline fuse as close to the battery as doable so in the event it blows you dont have a live current running through your car. Also the grounding cable (attach to the metal body of the car) should be of the same guage as the power cable or interesting things happen , it's also a good idea that you dont just bolt the grounding cable to the next bolt but actually drill a new hole and scratch the buggery out of the paint for a good contact :) What sort of amp, sub and sub enclosure you got mate? :) Goodluck
  11. noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! windows smartphone forever!!!!! dont cry bill... it's just a bad dream.. that nasty iphone wont hurt you...
  12. ^^ any gamer tags Pumped? might just have to hunt you down just cause im ninja
  13. sounds good :) sort of wish i didnt hide my cables so well now <_< hmmm yeah i cant figure it out either :S hmmm i can live with it tbh :) not really worth opening up the HU to fiddle with it :) (not until the warranty is gone at least xD) thanks for your help :)
  14. mmmm car + gaming = win?
  15. Hmmmm where would the best place to put the switch be? Would it be allright to have it right near the amp? um it's connected to the dimmer wire, the same one that was hooked into the stock HU =) Double checked before that the wire only receives current when the lights are on so this mystify s me? theres no where else for it to be connected either and it's the same from the stock etc :S
