If anyone wants a photo of something specific on the stock Gen 2 3SGTE engine, let me know ASAP before it all goes back together!

Now I have something else that I can work on while the engine is out...

As you can see, I have a soft spot for Pioneer for some reason [:P]

AVIC-F910BT head unit, including GPS, same as jezza-boii's:


12 inch sub:


4 channel amp, 2 channels will be bridged for the sub, and the other 2 will be for my existing Kenwood door speakers:


Installation kit:

Thanks man, now I have to sort out a sub enclosure...suggestions? Should I buy one or will I have to make one to suit anyway?

There aren't really a lot on the market. You're better off custom making one yourself. Then you know it will be exactly the way you want it And potentially alot lighter. Some of them weigh a ton!

To get the most out of your sub, you will need the correct internal volume and diameter/length of port if it needs a vented enclosure.

Love the deck, looks like it does everything.

I'm not sure if he does gearboxes, I'll have to ask him.

Just thought I'd post a pic of the exhaust manifold I'm getting, because I'm so excited about that particular part due to how awesome it looks! Full Race have a lifetime guarantee for these manifolds, promising that they will never crack.
Too bad I have to wait a while for it to arrive.

Back on the topic of my audio stuff, I think I'm going to make my own enclosure, not ported. I'm wondering whether to use MDF or something else, and whether I should fill it, etc.

Just use MDF for the box. Unless its a complex shape id use some fiberglass

Any idea how long the engine work is going to take?
