Few new pics!

Trying to work out what I need for my sound system. Looking to spend around $1000-1300, this is what i have so far

Headunit: Some kind of pioneer that can connect to ipod $200
Speakers: I have no clue of what are the best brands for speakers or how many I want. Maybe 6x9's in the front, and 6"s in the back? :S $200-300
Amp: Pioneer/sony/alpine/kenwood brands - not sure how many watts I need for an amp, guessing higher the better. want a 4 channel amp so i can change the sub by the headunit $200-300?
Sub: well known brand 1 12" sub will do enclosed in a box - $200
Installation wiring: I know you can do it yourself, but Id rather a pro to do it to save the hassle and to make sure its tuned correctly - what places are best to do this? jaycar / stratfeild car audio / JB HiFi? Or a private business that speicalises in car audio? im guessing it will cost around $100-200, maybe cheaper if I buy all the parts from them.

Can anyone fill in the parts im not sure about, any advice will be awesome!

Hey =)

For the headunit, go for the DEHP3000IB, Has full Ipod control within the headunit + also charges it for you =). Don't go 6x9 in the front, put them on the parcel shelf or something similar. With amps, go for one that has a lot of MAX Watts at the smallest OHMs, the lower the OHMs, the more punch it will have. Don't go ported sub boxes, enclosed are the best as there's nowhere for the air to go (otherwise they lose resistance). I did my headunit myself, but for everything else I'll be going to my source @ JB Hifi, he knows his **** =). Just some pointers, doesn't bother me if you take them in, just thought i'd share my piece =)

edit; new pics look nice. I need a decent camera =(

Ay,

Crazy, that was the only headunit I had in my favorites :O on special at JB as well... so thats sorted.

Looking at

Pioneer GM6300F 4 CHANNEL AMP

for my amp - what do you think?

 

[dzire]

I sell that one @ work, so i'll check out the specs and stuff for you today and let you know either later tonight or tomorrow morning =). MTX are also a very good brand, but you'll spend a lot more than $1300 on their stuff! Haha.

nice ride man, just a few things..

...and this is just some ideas =]

de-badge it, maybe take off the side strips 'trolley strips' but they arent too noticable as they are colour coded. if it was my car id rip the wing off, sell it and spend the cash on filling the holes from behind the bonnet + boot badges lol?

will look swet on superlows, and i reckon black tail lights would suit that blue better, seeing as you have the black headlights. tint will look nice too, and a nice set of rims will set it off, do you have any wheels in mind?

love that colour looks nice man

ckeck out my vt and see what you think, its a bit rough at the monent lol!

Yeah, im looking to lower it a bit more, I think ur right,black taillights or the GTO lights would have been the better option . Wonder how much id get if I was to sell them.. they are practically new.

And yes, I want to get a set of 19's down the track, tho im really not sure what id like - was thinking maybe the VE SSV ones.
