East Bay STI's progress in the making
#49
On to sad news of my weekend Neighbor's kid broke my Driver Side APR CF Mirror!!!!!! Well the cool Euro blue glass popped off fell and shattered in a few places. So with that said I am somewhat pissed off, maybe I can have a glass shop make me some new mirrors as a just in case type thing. It was dark when I saw the carnage, I guess my mom knew about it and did not say anything to me about it until it was dark. Normally I would be in a Roid Rage type of mood/attitude but I kept my cool, and asked the kids playing around my car who done it. So my neighbor kid said he did it, I turned to him and whas I will talk to your dad about it later. I know they have company over and he was probably on his second 12 pack or Sierra Nevada so I will talk to my neighbor tomorrow. Hopefully they will take responsibility for this, and I can get the glass piece replaced, I still need to see if the housing is fine or not. I am somewhat mad, but at the same time I know **** happens. He said he barely touched it, but why would something I locked down with and allen wrench move so far forward if it was only touched? Sp yeah, hopefully this will go somewhat smoothly when we discuss the damage. I know he is going to **** a brick when he finds out that the mirrors are $300+ shipping to replace. So yeah, rant is over for now!!!!!!!!!

Little update for now, no pics either. Will get some tomorrow after i get it all tuned. So after about 4 years or so my Pioneer DEH-9600MP decided that it did not want to work all that great. So after thinking about it and finding out I had some decent speakers in my car already (bought it used) I decided to upgrade my sound system So today I bought a Pioneer DEH-P400UB Premier It is quite nice and was not expensive either. Has the main functions I was looking for, low key for not getting stolen Has preset and programmable EQ, USB/Ipod connectivity and also Subwoofer control for on or off. This head unit is recommended strongly by crutchfield as it has a integrated Sound Level Adjuster which makes the sound more crisp and clear. Since i-pod and or mp3 files are compressed and what not. It helps make it sound more like cd quality as opposed to compressed figity sounds. Anyways here is what else I am going to put into my car to finish off my system:
Already Installed:
Pioneer DEH-P400UB Premier
Pioneer 12 CD Changer
Infinity 6.5 Seperates + Crossover + Tweeters
Infinity 5.25 Components
To Be Installed:
Alpine Flex 4 4X75W -Mids and Highs
Some generic 2X500W - Sub
Audiobahn 12" sub 400W
1" Cubic Foot Sealed Box - More then enough for what I am doing
Monster Cable 4 Channel RCA + Remote
4 Gauge Monster Power Cable
6 Gauge Monster Cable Ground Cable
Lightning Audio Distribution Block
Should turn out to be a nice setup, also debating as to whether or not I should get a different amp and or 12" sub as well. I ran a 2 12" system before in another car I had before the STi and I only want to use 1 12" but I am not trying to make too much noise. I just want to hear my music a little bit more clear and feel some bass as well
Also need to update my parts list as well.
