    WTB 16" rims for my GN

    The tires on my stockers are nearing the 4 year old mark, and need replaced, and before I dump a few hundred on some radials for my stock GN wheels, I'm considering upgrading to a bigger wheel with more tire options, not to mention, update the cars image a bit. My stocks are in fair condition...

    Strange scan tool and high idle problem

    Its the strangest thing that I just cant figure out. I have been scratching my head for years over it but it never really became an issue. Everytime I plug in a scan tool, my turbolink, or even the Snap-on scanner at my shop, my idle bumps up like 200-400 RPM as soon as it connects, like the...

    audio ?

    The only Richard Clark I know of is the one who was on the 9/11 commission. Im sorry, I must have skipped the memo that told me I couldnt install until I knew who everyone important to you was.

    radio replacement

    Well the kit is for installing a single din into that big hole in the dash. If you do in fact have a 1.5 din radio to put in, then you shouldn't need any kit at all, just a wiring harness. The only reason I could see you needing a kit is if you don't have the brackets for the radio, then...

    Couple of installs

    I wouldn't say it has any negative peformance effects, esentially its doing to same thing forward or backward. I've had customers ask for them mounted that way thinking it DID do something to make it magically louder or deeper in some way, but to each is his own I guess, some subs are just too...

    audio ?

    This started with someone who asked for help. I simply suggested since his caps were already disconnected, to check them to see if they are still good. Obviously only one person is allowed an opinion in threads anymore. This isn't something I made up, it has happened more than once, meaning it...

    audio ?

    I kind of jumped off there a bit, Im not tryingto make enemies, I just dont like being told I dont know what Im talking about. You get that after years of kids coming in arguing with you about information they get from friends, not to mention fixing the installs they had friends do for them that...

    audio ?

    MY notions? They come from being in the field for enough years to have seen plenty. I never said anything about industrial, Im talking about car audio. The caps made by MTX, Lightning, and Rockford Fosgate are the most common that I had installed over the years, and if you read, I said SOMETIMES...

    Alternator whine again, ground directly to battery.

    Not to pick fights with you dnavone, but sometimes the simple solutions are not so simle. On paper such troubleshooting methods work great, and to arrive at such a textbook answer, we would first have to acknowledge that on paper, communism works great too. pulling apart wiring and panels, and...

    Some Help

    question is, what do you have now? is it all factory? if so, $500 is a bit of a pinch, especially if you have the factory tape deck in it. You can use an FM modulator to connect anything to anything as far as a head unit and youre zune are concerned, or like my wifes pioneer radio, the P-bus...

    audio ?

    You have problems deeper than an improperly wired audio system. When the key is off, the equipment (if wired properly) are also off, and the power demand is almost nothing, even an inline stiffening cap or two have no power draw when there is no demand. If all your little red lights turn off...

    Alternator whine again, ground directly to battery.

    This comes straight from dealing with "ghosts" in the sound system for about 7 years, but sometimes, its hard as hell to chase down an alternator whine. Beyond the laws of time and space itself, there have been cases where I couldnt get rid of it, and had to tell my customer, "sorry". alot of...
