I was wondering, if I install a big sound system with subs and all the tra la la, the fact is that a don't have the sound-proofing in the car.. It is possible to put a sound system..? without having a sound that always hits the frame lol

the sound proofing in our cars blows to begin with so don't worry about it

 

just put a small amount of aftermarket sound deadener around the rear speakers - I didn't @ first and the bass (withOUT a subwoofer) caused the inner quarterpanels to rattle.

 

Just remember that your car will be significantly slower and more sluggish-feeling if you weigh it down with heavy subs and amps.... I know because I used to have a stereo like that in my car.

Don't underestimate what all that weight lightening has done to the performance; it really does make a *big* difference. More so than on a car that's torquier and heavier to start with in my experience. Your car *will* be slower and less nimble with all that stuff.

If you have it in your heart to add a nice stereo, I would personally try very hard to keep it light. No big boxes, etc... small, light stuff. Personally, my setup is a 5 channel amp, 4" up front, 6x9" in the back, and a removeable box with a 10" JL.

You know what though? 99% of the time, I leave the sub at home.

Personally, I find the sound of the car more exciting than any music could be (and I'm a *big* music fan...). I usually find myself turning down (or off) the stereo so I can hear the carb and exhaust lol.

Anyways, that's just just my opinion

 

You're right Silver Anyway, I have a radio to install and a CD changer, and maybe i'll buy some front speakers, but after thinking about it, i'll not put subs and amps.. You're right, the car will be slower with all this stuff!

Thanks guys

Anyway, I will listen to my music in daddy's FD with all the big sound system Humm and bring chicks too lol


Cheers!

 

Dont worry, you can get plenty of chicks in my old car .

The sound deadening is still around the rear speakers (that stuff hardly weighs anything). You'll notice that the "sticky tar" sound stuff is still glued to the car under the rear carpet and in the spare tire well... There's a limit to how much I removed because the car was getting REALLY loud lol.
