Savings has started, should have just enough by 16th of July to start everything :)

Oh and this happened last night..
Went to Hungry Jacks to get a coke, just down the road my battery light goes on, lose power steering and my temperature gauge was going up, thought "**** lost the belt".
Pull over and saw the pulley with half of the ball bearings and just generally dead to the World.

Was that the tensioner? My VS did that once, the belt was still fine though and after driving to bunbury it had half melted the pulley aha
Nice figures what's the song in the video from a little while back?

Yeah was the tensioner pulley, gonna replace the other two idlers soon to be extra pedantic.
My belt was fairly worn on the side even though it was 20thou old, too precautious maybe? Haha.

Song is On My Level by Wiz Khalifa :)

Gonna make another video tomorrow of how it performs with the M3 :)

Sweet. I'd like to see how much the Mazda and my car are getting, only one 12 in the Mazda and two 12's in my 180 but just for reference aha

May think about trying 3 way active/passive and just running the tweeters from the headunit with a crossover or resistor (don't really know how it works just yet).

Still over the moon with how it sounds at the moment, stage height stays the exact same whether the seat is in SQ Mexican position or daily driving position :)

VR Berlina Wagon
Hey mate very nice wagon. I have a VR wagon thinking of getting for 12" in the back with 6' up front and 6x9 in the back where the stock speakers were. Mine wont be as good as yours but I reckon it'd still be decent.
In my 97 Impreza I had 2 12" pioneer subs inch in the boot running off a custom amp and could be heard for about 5 kms along the highway.
