    Speaker upgrades

    Update...I bought a used amp off ebay. Double checked everything as we had it before and plugged up with fingers crossed. Turned power on and selected some hip hop with decent bass notes. Nothing too hard at first. Everything is working as it should. Here are the findings: 1. First off...

    Speaker upgrades

    Update...my amp blew, not the speaker. For some reason the kicker speaker created or found a weak spot in my sub outputs of my amp. Or it was coincidence. I dont know, but the guy working on it is as puzzled as I am and has made it his point to find something that works. We are looking at a...

    Speaker upgrades

    Okay, my speaker was installed today. Kicker sub. Gutted box, added a little filler, sealed the port, and dynomatted the box inside and out and the rear firewall as well. Speaker bottomed out at anything over half volume. He said the factory amp was overpowering the speaker, then on the way...

    Speaker upgrades

    Its not the bass you can feel that im looking for. I know we are limited due to the factory box being crap. I just want well rounded quality sound. My Kicker came in today and the guy doing the install has my blessing to do what he would to his own car. He gutted the factory box and dyno...

    Speaker upgrades

    So what about the choice of the Kicker sub over the Focal? I know it's probably apples to oranges but would I be better off with the Focal or wait to see what the Kicker sounds like? The more research I do on the Focal the more it sounds like I may not be disappointed, but if they're not much...

    Speaker upgrades

    I have been searching the site and reading about all the upgrades you guys are doing for speakers. I finally stopped by a local sound shop and got an interesting option. First off, my biggest concern was replacing the blown sub between the seats. I looked at the JL Audio(hard to find...

    Transmission whine?

    Does it do it in neutral with the clutch out? If so, does the noise go away when you press the clutch lightly? If you can make the sound come and go with the clutch it's possible you may have an early failure of the throw out bearing. Or, as mjorgensen said, it could be normal and just be a...

    Waxing your ride.

    Okay, I'm probably gonna get beaten up for this one, but this is what I have used for years with awesome results. It's called Super Glaze from The Wax Shop. Can't find it as much any more, and I see Mcguires came out with something similar, but it's not the same. I did find a website that...

    Power window auto down feature not working

    For clarification I am referring to the slight drop the window is supposed to do when you open the doors. Not the auto down feature where you press the button to the second detent and the window lowers without holding the button. That works fine. Our problem is the window doesnt drop enough to...

    How the heck does this happen

    I was at a car show last weekend doing some final touches on detailing. A new z06 backs into a spot across from me. The guy gets out and keeps looking over. I knew it was coming, but didnt expect what came next. "What year is it?" "'03" "Nice car! I hope mine looks that good in 12 years."...

    Battery reset pros and cons needed

    It HAS to be something with the procedure we are using. There is a step somewhere being missed. It worked fine until I touched the buttons, or at least the first time I opened the door. So I know it is at least capable. How do you get from there to it being set??? What step locks it in...

    Battery reset pros and cons needed

    Okay...that was scary!! I disconnected the battery and while I had the terminal off I noticed it was broken so I replaced the clamp. Once I put everything back together I couldn't get in my car!! The key fob wouldn't work for anything...no door lock, no trunk lid unlock, no alarm, nothing! I...

    Accessories

    I'm looking for a few items for my black 03 vert. Car cover (good quality and weatherproof, not the dust cover type), floor mats, emblems, etc. I see that Viper Parts Store is closing, or did I read my email correctly?!! Is there a go-to that you guys deal with mostly? Also, did the 03's...

    Battery reset pros and cons needed

    To help fix my window drop function I am thinking about disconnecting the battery to reset the pcm and bcm but Im a little worried from some of the posts I have read about electrical issues after doing so. I made this thread separate from my other one just in case this applies to other problems...

    Power window auto down feature not working

    I have tried several times to "program" it and it actually seemed to have gotten worse where it doesnt drop at all now when the door is opened. Here is what I have done and noticed: 1. Get in shut door and turn key on. 2. Starting with the window up I roll it all the way down and hold the...

    Locksmiths - Beware who you use...(long but funny)

    From another thread about locking keys in trunks I referred to my incident the other day regarding a certain locksmith and thought I would take the time to tell ya'll about it in case you needed a good laugh today. Before I get started though, I want to say a few things from lessons learned...

    Power window auto down feature not working

    I apologize that I forgot I already had a thread about this. Regardless, I still need help with it if anybody has any ideas. I tried the search function but didn't find anything specific. Everything else was about the regulator failures, which I already had replaced. Thanks,

    Power window auto down feature not working

    My 03 vert driver's door isnt lowering enough to clear the seal when closing with the top up. I had the regulator replaced and they said the track was good. Im sure it is a programming issue but the hold down then hold up and repeat x 3 sequence doesnt work. With the door open I can roll it all...
