Rev Heads beast * ITB progress*

Re: Rev heads work in progress * UPDATE 20th Feb*

everything i recieved is pictured i have no clue about that stuff lol although im assuming i need it

 

Re: Rev heads work in progress * UPDATE 5th April*

I finally have some updates haha
ok so a few weeks ago my passenger side front split blew. So instantly it was time to replace as driving without music for is a no go.

I decided if im gonne replace them i may aswell upgrade to the speakers i want. So i went out and spent alot of money (to me it is alot anyway) and bought 6.5" splits and 6x9's both Alpine R series as iv always wanted them and heard nothing but good things



my good mate and one of our newest members fyinix87 helped me in a big way to install them, he basically did all the work. He rewired the whole system all i really did was fitment haha.
Door trims were a PIA had to make the whole for the woofer bigger which wasnt to much of an issue but the new tweeters are smaller and he fiddled around for a while trying to mount them, ended up using one of plastic surrounds from the old ones. lined them up the best we could and tighten. They sit like crap atm but they aint going anywhere il make up a plastic piece to sort that.


my temporary parcel shelf, will be getting retrimmed in black vinyl



the sounds awesome, i think it was money well spent

also my new(ish) LED Parkers


and also changed those stupid red lights on the doors that do nothing to clear lense and blue LED looks heaps better and bright as at night


and also YAY cupholders


i been wanting these for quite some time. nothing worse then getting drive through and having to shift gear with a massive cold cup of a drink in your lap.

 

Re: Rev heads work in progress * UPDATE 20th Feb*

thats it. plus ive always wanted these speakers they great quality and i like the look aswell

and no shit about the drink spilling 86CelicaGT-S iv had to clean up a few times lol

also i kno ive said it before but new shox should hopefully be coming soon so i can finally throw in the superlows

 

Re: Rev heads work in progress * UPDATE 5th APRIL*

jimmy you lie! you didnt tell me bout the clears you said they were different to the 4ths and they wouldnt fit haha.

you have to trim the inner surround though as it comes out further than the clear leanse coz they smaller.
Withe the tweeters i had to mount them there as that where the old tweeters were, i didnt like the idea of having 2 sets of tweeters lol and even more i didnt like the idea of just a hole from where the tweeters used to be.

as for the parcel shelf im not fussed the mdf one was in my other celica so it meant i didnt have to make one haha and theyve actyally done a decent job, also im a lil wanky and like the vinyl look im also wrapping the carpet inserts of the doors and 1/4 trims in vinyl but theyl be a light grey

 

Re: Rev heads work in progress * UPDATE 5th APRIL*

to be honest i could care less bout the parcel shelf atm lol. im more focussed on getting the kit all sorted. putting in new suspension and the respray.
Thinking the priming stage might be coming up soon. i started taking lil thing into work for them to 2k prime like mirrors etc.

also i started on this today


YAY now i just have to ensure i dont get lazy, all thing being equal it will be done, in primer and on the car by the end of next week (fingercrossed)

 

Re: Rev heads work in progress * UPDATE 5th APRIL*

understandable thoughts but i did think about this. Where its mounted should be directly over the extractors(unless i fucked up). As for water in the pugs my leads seal quite well and the shape of the vent will help keep the water away from the as it slopes forward and the width of the gap is only about 5" at best.
I intend on putting alot of effort into this bonnet, completelys smoothing it in and to the extent of smoothing out, filling and migging up holes from where the the supports have been cut. Also this is being done with my spare bonnet so worse come to worse i decide i dont like it no major loss and im prity convinced people would pay alot more than what it owes me to take it off my hands. Also this way my other celica wich is red aswell will be given a red bonnet and with my old bumper and guard from my good one will be completely red.

and jester the intent is most definately for a gte i already have a 2nd gen lined up for it depending on the blokes finances. as iv said before i have to play it safe with this whole no mods bullshit whilst on my p's so im getting the handling and aestetics done now so when its time to drop in the powerhouse itl have the looks and handling to accompany it.
will keep yaz updated with pics!

edit. jest dont worry i dont take offence and i know your not trying to bag me. Infact i invite anyones criticisms. i want this car to be the best it can be and sometimes it takes other peoples opinions to make ya realise what ya doing wrong. I simply reserve the right to say stiff shit im doing it anyway :twisted:

 

Re: Rev heads work in progress * UPDATE 5th APRIL*

thanks man, the sound quality is awesome. I was sorta undecided on mounting the cross over unit next to the speaker for fear of being to wnky but im glad i did

 

Re: Rev heads work in progress * UPDATE 5th APRIL*

thanks mate and i certainly intend to, unfortunately the bank aaccount doesnt seem to have the same intentions lol
