Great choice with the TE37s
Looking very sexy!

Keep me in mind if you decide to sell the sides and rear bar

Soooo after owning the car for more that 4 1/2 years I thought it was time to do some more audio upgrades, currently I have a Kenwood DVD deck with a Dynaudio 9" sub with a Digital Designs DD1 amp...

So over the weekend I bought some Focal Splits, with a Rockford Fosgate amp, I dynamated my front doors made a huge different even with stock speakers!!

Heres a before and after picture btw (Dynamat is inside and out)




Here is a picture of my current sub and box :)

I cut the piece in 1/2 and I shoved my arm up the door. One ontop and one below of the side intrusion bars. I scratched my arms quite a bit but well worth it!

The doors sound solid now when you close the door!

the roller is to get rid of air bubbles. If your careful u can get away without one.

So I have been having some clutch issues,

1st of all my master failed... then whilst I replaced the master I found a pedal box bolt was loose causing a noise under the dash...

So the car has never shifted better going into gears beautifully feels like butter, even into reverse 1st time every time... then after a good testing a noise!!! sounded like a clutch torsional spring in the bottom of the bell housing, Below is what i found!

The funny thing is that the clutch feels ok!!

Over the next couple of weeks I am deciding my next step of modification...
