Hey guys just sharing some love. Had my buddy redo the stereo in the hundie. Got a bit carried away and made it one of the baddest systems I've heard. Not into loud bass or anything just clarity and sound quality. Take a look and let me know what you guys think. And if you are ever up in northern Cali have a listen!

Neoworm, that was my thought exactly...I about rolled out of my chair when I read that.

Sub looks good...
 
what exactly is in the tailgate? Is that sub on the passenger side? Got a finished photo? The carbon fiber looks good if thats your thing but that purple dildo lever is confusing. Are you worried about getting vibes from it? My stock shifter has a slight buzz between 82-84 mph.
 
Lol! The dildo knob was a gift from my friend in Japan and I felt obligated to put it on :) it is a conversation piece tho no rattle. :)

The carbon is a personal taste thing. I grew up in the car and my dad gave it to me a few years ago, unlike all my cars that I usually rotate I can't sell the landcruiser, sentimental and it's a fantastic rig to drive daily and use for work. Anyway just get tired of looking at the same dash since 98 sooo just a change.

The tailgate has three mosconi amps to power everything. That is the passenger side the illusion 12 imch sub sits in. No room where stock sub sits. My friend placed the focal processor in the stock sub location so he can access it to tune.

Everything is done just took off all the grills to see the sub and amps. Otherwise it is covered up to look stock and still throw in all my gear, dogs and such and not destroy everything.

I missed a few comments so ask any other questions please, hopefully it's not hurtful ;)

System sounds really good. By far the best out of my cars. I gave my friend free reign on designing and expense on it. It's my daily, may as well enjoy the ride.
 
Actually it's real carbon that he laid. They don't make replacement pieces in carbon and the sticky overlays look like butt.

I wrapped it in the 3m di noc before it didn't look bad. But meh. Had to do the real thing.
 
You grew up in a 98 land cruiser??? And your sig says midlife crisis? Are you planning on dying at 40?

Nice install, if that's your thing. I appreciate that you mentioned the loud bass thing. Thank you. Having to listen to some dumb kids music blaring makes me want to take them out of the gene pool.
 
I like the clean install of the woofer and I like your taste in cars. My wife used to have a Z32 and I still have the s13. The dash and dildo are a bit much for my taste lol.

What do you use the truck for?
 
Lol my fault I was in high school when my dad bought it. Pretty much when I started appreciating cars, I thought everyone who drives a Porsche is in a crisis ha.

I love my z32 it's pretty much stock and low miles. Just a garage queen, my 240 is being rebuilt again its a track whore :/

I just use her to carry things for work supplies and such. Otherwise to the snow or outings.

It really is clean very stock looking. Excellent job and again it sounds fantastic!
 
Nice setup. Can your tailgate bear weight or do you have a cover for the components? Also can you make a list of the components used? Using the tailgate was a great idea, especially if its still useable.

And we have similar taste, I had a 997.1 and my current z06 z07 package was the anti gtr purchase :)
