Let's build the ultimate system v0.0

Let's start w/ which H/A car to stick it in...
Which would you choose?

My votes on the CL... its a pimp ride -- you dont need audio in an NSX, you have the motor to listen to :smoka:

Good point... I haven't made a decision myself... It's difficult!

Civic's need it to drown out all the road noise...and to keep you from being depressed by the underwhelming groan of d16 VTEC :D

Its a tough choice. A minivan would be nice with all the extra space for more speakers and bigger subs :devil:

Naw, the CL is better looking :smoker2:

i just don't like the cl's back-end. they look funky. i'd take the TL please.

SPL or SQL?
Which car will depend on what we're after

Up to you guys really... I'd like to go the SQ route w/ some good bump...

I would go with a CRX.

I tell you what, My old room mate has an 01 Accord lx 4 door. I put 2 Fosgate punch 500s under the front seats, a pair of Focal Utopia Components into the doors and dash and flushed in a JL sub into a false floor in the trunk. That car sounded better than any home stereo I have heard in a long time. The Focal components hit so hard you almost dont even need a sub. The imaging was perfect. The Focals also could have used more power as well but oh well, the amps were what we had laying around. Anyone got 1500 bucks that I can have so I can own a set of Utopias?

NSX all the way. a car that looks and performs that good has to have a pimp system to go with the image

Well i love SPL so i would get an Astro van with no rear area windows.:flash:

Yeah, its gotta be the NSX. We are talking about the ultimate system here. Civics and lude's just aren't original enough

Maybe you shouldn't talk about original if you drive an integra.. :dogpile:

A civic HB or a focus HB. The HB have a bigeer advantadge over the other cars.

My vote's for the NSX...That'd be a coooool project:D

That's funny talkin smack on ppl that own integra's ooohh everyone has an integra blah blah blah. I am sorry that honda produced a car that is sofuckinggreat i mean yes the civic is also a great platform but the integra has the A symbols on it giving it the advantage besides the fact that an h22 engine will so easily sit under the hood. I guess to sum it up look how many ppl had wagons back in the pioneer days. good things catch on.

I'd totally be for an Accord 98-2002, and not just because I own one (eventhough the main reason I bought it was do a huge install on it and didn't but that's another story I was once a MECP cert. installer, ask me later I'll explain it when I have time).

With going with an Accord you have easy to work on platform which will allow you the ability to squeeze the most out of it. Unlike a NSX where you would have to sacrifice equipment and some but minor frequency ranges do to it's small cabin. Also you aren't dropping a lot of bank on a car that you're going to rip apart, so in turn you can drop more on better grade equipment. Save the NSX's and Integra's for their engine tuning. The Acura's are expensive and harder to work on becuase of all the luxury add-ons.

I would have to go with other and head more towards the SUV market. Take an Expedition or Pearl White Escalade, drop it with 22's. If we're building the ULTIMATE (being the key word), then an SUV gives you the best sound with style, more room to work with, and more room to work in. If I had to pick one of the cars then I would go with an Accord also.

talkin smack? or just messin around? take it how you like. i love the integra, just not for a stereo install. go with something that's already slow, like the odyssey.

Okay guys, if you wanna argue over cars go somewhere else. Xivera said lets build the ultimate system. If you wanna argue, then argue why your pick of a car would better help the STEREO, not argue over the engine in the cars. Stick to the subject at hand.

and just to mess with ya, you can fit an h22 into a civic as well. itd just mess with the handling a lot because it weighs so much...but that applies to integras too. and the A symbol? back where the cars come from they both have an H. and dont get me wrong, i love integras:D

If you are going for the biggest thump then go with a Hummer... the original not that P.O.S. H2. Otherwise you gotta go NSX. That car is just about perfect and a great system would only bring it closer to that mark.

have any of you ever worked on an NSX prolly not there is no room behind the seats a ''glovebox'' inbetween the seats it's a race car i'd go with the rsx i have yet to see one pimped to the max

ps all show no go = embarassment on the blvd...
