    Upgrading the Accord iCDTi ICE. Many Questions (& hopefully Answers too!)

    Upgrades on the way. The 300/4 (currently bridged to 150x2) is being replaced by the 450/4v2. It was bench tested at 183Wx2 R.M.S the other day, plus 92Wx2 R.M.S for the tweeters. The front end will be fully active, I'm just unsure atm if I am going for another set of drivers in the front doors...

    My pal with the huge amount of fibreglass experience is still on honeymoon, so I have been doing some research on the footwell subwoofer build, and fibreglass construction methods for Door Panels in general. I have 3/4 options on where to mount the 8" subwoofer. I need to measure when mum is...

    Thanks for those kind words mate. I'm not blowing my own trumpet here, there are many many cars that go far far louder than mine does. Some you can hear streets away with systems costing 10% of what my install cost, but that kind of thing was NEVER my aim with this car. For fear of sounding...

    Firstly I have no idea regarding the copied discs, maybe post a thread up asking members with Honda Sat-Navs for opinions & advice. Secondly I have bad news for you. Those units are known to have issues on I-CDTi models with blowing the Air-Con or it not functioning. Thirdly (& it's only my...

    I have seen this morning a car with the same 8W3v3-4 Subwoofer mounted in the passenger footwell in a custom fibreglass enclosure. Looks pretty awesome huh & better/classier than the inverted triangle design pictured above IMO.

    It's not going to really pump like the rear Subwoofer does, it's just going to fill a small gap when the tuning of the Subwoofer box response starts to roll off (around 80/90Hz) and where the front speakers pick the lower frequencies up again frequencies up again (100/120hz), the sort of...

    Thanks for all the great feedback on my install at Japfest 2 & Ace Cafe meets yesterday. It really makes all the time spent worthwhile. OK I officially have an ICE addiction problem. I'm buying another Subwoofer to mount in the front passenger footwell firing straight at the front seat. As bass...

He is very busy completing another car install & his own big build in a VW Sharan...
