the money and delivery isnt the issue... its finding someone who has one

*bump*

does anyone know any reputable places in melbourne that sell front cuts ?

im on the market for a CA18DET and im struggling to find one.. every place i ring doesnt have any front cuts in stock but tries to sell me bits and pieces of motors...

i want to buy one complete..

thanks in advance

hehe nah my ute cabin is completely empty at the moment... stereo is the last thing ill worry about.... although ill probably just go with a good set of 6 inch splits and and amp... that'll be heaps for me in that small cabin.... i put some in a mates hilux and that sounded good...

at the moment ive just got 6x9's running off an amp in the rear and 6ich 3ways running off the head unit in the front of my n13 SSS... and although the front doesnt keep up with the rear.. it still sound good enough for me.... but i think it has a lot to do with the parcel shelf as ive made a 30mm thich mdf shelf which gives out good bass.....

when i had my r31 skyline i had the same 3 way 6inch's in the front and 7 X 10's in the rear... again with 30mm parcel shelf.... later i got a 10inch sub boxed in the boot and ran that off the amp and the 7 x 10's off the head unit (2 ch amp) and it sounded better without the sub.. probably cos the 7x10's werent amped...

sorry bout the long post...
but thats my experience

i prefer clear crisp sound and bass rather than huge decibels

two 10" subs will give u a sharp stabbing bass... where as 1 15" will give u that sorta vibrating bass that you get out of rnb music and the like....

just depends what sort of music you like i suppose

personally i think subs arent necessary and that 6" splits up front and 6 X 9's or 7 X 10's give the best all round sound....

but each to their own....

you'll be able to use the original mounts if you had an auto tunnel... and since its a ute you wont.. so you'll have to remove the original mounting points to fit the gearbox into the tunnel

yep.. as 1200rc said

u need an MR30 skyline 5spd
and mate it up with the original ca18 5spd bellhousing... or a cheaper option is to get the bellhousing out of a series III bluebird with a ca20 and use that... saves u buying the ca18 gearbox...

aahhhh at last i see

nice ute.. any info on it?

yeah got quicktime.... that wont play it (well it does play the sound) nor will my media player

all im getting is the sound... no vid.. WHY
