Well since no one else has really posted much here lately I'll throw something up about the Trooper. Getting her ready for the new interior, all the seats, the fabric on the door panels, sunvisors, and the roof are going to be covered in charcol and black suede (I decided not tot do the Gucci interior as it would be kinda tacky). System has also been completely removed for a revamp: two more monitors in the headrests, new speakers all around (if I can get my Rainbows fixed for a decent price they are going back in the front and a matching component set for the rear), new 4channel amp to drive the speakers, new subs (but still 4 10" woofers, in all new smaller, sealed, fiberglass or similar enclosures covered in suede as well I think), a more permanent install for the Xbox. All the blue LEDs and neon from back in grade 10 (man that's like 6 years ago lol) have been taken out, any electrical aftermarket accessory as either been or is being rewired or removed completely, I must have pulled like 300 feet of wire out of the car lol. Looking at building a custom piggyback computer and systems display for the ECU and TCM (looking through the shop manual for the Trooper reveals huge numbers of sensors, my car has a G sensor built in does yours lol) I'd like to be able to see and modify some system parameters, I've already built a basic hardware platform for the piggyback computer using Analog Devices ADSp533 Blackfin processor at 750MHz, and have got my ECU taken apart and ripped the machine code off of it and ran it through a dissassembler, haven't analyzed much of it yet since I could only get so much into assembly code.
Current state aactually has a lot more interior panels off then this shot shows:
But now that I've rambled on for long enough about what I'm up to what are you guys up to? Any new projects/pictures? |

HOOOLLYY!!
crazy plans man!!
ive got alot of shit going on too, but not audio-wise...
my car comes out of the shop this week completely re-painted with shaved doors and body kit installed! the shaved door kit comes in the mail this week too, along with a compustar alarm/RS....thanks CUB3D!!
other than that, i am making a set of custom clear headlights, as well as installing my ps2 into the centre console, which will all be fiberglassed as well.....
lambo door kit gets shipped out at the end of this week....im also going to be making my own carbon fiber interior pieces, oh and Aerogear is also sending me my CF hood and front splitter by next week!:bowdown: :bowdown: |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
Nice man, the lambo doors will look tight on that thing! Dax, you doing HIDs in there anytime soon? If you do we should order them together to save on shipping (that is if you don't get a set for yourself for cheap/free you bastard haha).
You didn't change the colour of your car when it was repainted did you? Still silver I hope.
More recent pic from yesterday (speakers be rewired to the back in this picture, that's what all that green wire is (by far the best speaker wire: go to Home Depot and tell them you want speaker wire for running inside walls it's like $1.10/metre and is 12ga also has dual jackets and is flameproof, far cheaper then buying shit at a car audio store, 12ga wire is the same everywhere don;t let them tell you otherwise): New Pic |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
Ohhh yeah so what did I pick up today? :D
2 6.5" headrest monitors
and all the suede fabric for the interior, including the roof and doors baby!!! woot woot!!! :D |
|
|
| qualthar |
| Nice project you're taking on, I can't wait to see the final product! It's pretty tough to turn all those wires and guts into something, but that Red Bull will help you get it done in no time :D |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
yah he's right, lol red bull is key...
where did u get your monitors from bro? what kind?
and no, the car is getting completely re-painted, but will stay silver, i am also building custom HID projector headlights, so i will be ordering HID within the next couple weeks....8000K
and the shaved door kit is in the mail, along with a compustar alarm :bthumbup: i just love being sponsored, thanks to Cubed Productions! :bowdown: |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
I got them from Autotemp cause I know a guy there and got a smoking deal on them (most places sell them for US$225, I got them for far less then that), they are Nesa monitors and look fucking dope, the picture quality is really nice on it. Sure I could have saved a few bucks and gone the Ebay route and yes in reality raw LCD screens are made by only a few major Japanese and Korean manufacturers and then sold to other companies who brand them and build driver circuits and signal processing circuits for them, that's where the quality differences arise. I'd recommend the Nesa ones for sure though. I was playing Xbox on them for a few hours testing them out haha. tearing the roof and door panels out today for sueding :D
Oh yeah there was/is lots of Red Bull involved in this project, you can see two in that picture and there is probably like 25 empties in the recycle bin in my gargae just from this project lol.
Picking up an Alpine V12 5 channel amp to drive my mids and highs tommorow, now I need to settle on some new speakers, the Rainbows aren't economically feasible to have shipped back to germany to be repaired :( |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
you got both of the monitors for less than 225US, or each?
I think i will go eBay depeneding, theres also alot of other sites that sell car audio like that, depenedable ones.
the projects sound good kid, im still waiting for those fuckin guys at the body shop to finish painting my car, then i gotta install the shaved door kit, and get someone to install the new compustar red alarm.......where the hell am i gonna do that? :dunno: :dunno: |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
No no I got them for LESS then US$225 each, that's what they retail at, I'll let you know later on what I got them for :D (they are these ones) Just got the roof and door panels off for sueding, I'll throw another pic up later cause there is like no interior panels on right now on the inside LOL.
Among other thigns I pulled out the Quinn alarm I had in there, compustar is going in as well, good thinking Dax, fuck this project is getting expensive haha, oh well it'll be worth it when rocking club Instinct at the car shows this summer, given any thought to the show scene yet Dax, V8Less Calgary is coming up soon.
|
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
those are nice screens man, good pull, i might be hittin you up for a set!
did you already have a compustar alarm? if not i could hook you up for a wikked price, do you know anyone who could install em for cheap?
gotta love projects getting expensive, lol i have alot of those on the go very soon, which sucks cuz im hurtin for dough, cant work if i dont have a car ...shitty
and as for the car show scene, i have laid em all out and planned for everyone, there is about 10....there is 3 in calgary, 3 here, and 2 in edmonton, and the first one im doing is in regina from april 23-25.....i am doing that one because one of my sponsors is located out there, and i will be in their booth etc, it'll be a blast! other than that, they are scattered well throughout the summer, so i cant wait!
update- i do get my car back by the end of this week, but we arent shaving the doors right now, shitty i know, but for inspection reasons we arent confident it will pass inspection, but i have all the shaved door kit n actuators in the mail so it will be done eventually.....as soon as i ge the car back im gonna spend most of the weekend decaling. i got lots of sponsorship stuff to do, but NOTHING is touching the fresh paint, they are all gonna be on the windows....i think i am going to come to calgary next weekend. wanna go to red deer for a night chris? maybe sat night?? i wanna get out there again and visit some people...u down for a cruise? |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
Oh that would be so tight if you could hook me up with a deal on the Compustar, I was looking at the 2WSS-AS, gottal love more then 1mile range. I'm installing my own, so if you wanna come up here we can install them both at the same time, just the usual cost, McDonalds lunch hahaha.
Shit man I have to be in Calgary Sat. night for this girl's birthday, you'd be stupid not to come to Mynt with us.
Give me a ring when you get into Calgary, you'll have to come over and see the Troopa :D I'll talk to you on MSN. |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
hey man, i asked max (owner of cubed productions) --> my hook up, and he said he can help you out, but he will get prices for me tomorrow....
i am getting a compustar red, im not sure of the model number...
are you sure you know how to install remote starters/alarms lol? maybe try first on your truck, lol then when i come into cgy next we can give'r on my car...and of course mcdonalds will be in there, we would be stupid not to, really :bthumbup: and maybe a couple of these :beer:
and i wont be in cgy this weekend, maybe next weekend....the car will be out of the shop this weekend/monday so i will be good to go...see u on msn |

Yo Shan man, that project looks sick already man, iv never seen the trooper ripped up that much. but once its all done its going to look so awsome man, you love your trooper so much with all the work put into it, but its defintly a pimpin ride.
And Dax dawg man the sunfire, all i hear is im doing this then next week im doing this, is there going to ever be a time when the sunfire can take a break from being worked on, or what man, theres always something new that your going to through into your car isnt there. buts its sweet man, just get it out of the shop and on the streets.
As for my new ride, its doing really nice on the streets, im proud of the purchase for sure. Dax youll have to see it soon one day man. I wish I had money and time that I could work on my car like you two do, cause I would make my car so much faster with a sweet body kit on it. Maybe one day in the future ill be able to do a lot of stuff to it, just like you boys.
It will be sweet to see your boyz rides when all finished with everything, so keep the post on how the rides are coming along.
Peace out from the fautthew :bthumbup: |

skyline- intercooler is being planned to go in in about 3 months...as well as other misc. internals, but i dont know about the manual conversion, fuck what a bitch project that would be.....i dont have a need for speed, im an appearance guy |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
Skyline - Got any plans for your ride this year? You gotta get that 1/4mile time into at least the 13s :D :D
Daxman you always have to have the need for speed you'd be stupid not too, I'll be getting the XT faster towards the end of summer, think Cobb Tuning :D |

The Trooper work has to be put on hold this week due to the fact that I'm in Montreal right now and will be till next Sun. soooo.. I'll try and pick up some new speakers while I'm here and then I can dice them up and other shit next week. |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
hey man! good to hear about all the progress!
good luck with the speaker find and try to enjoy yourself in montreal.....gimme a shout when you get back, im coming into cgy next weekend |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
Long time no update, but just got back into town, so here's a pic of the roof (didn't brush it to take out any of the hand prints, but that's just the nature of suede, shows hand prints and shit like that): (really shitty pic but you get the idea)
Got one door panel almost done, should have all the door panels done by the end of the week or this weekend. The seats will be done in a couple of weeks, I'll prolly start on the new box and amp rack in the back this weekend, once I get my buddy to donate a fw sheets of MDF to me (his family owns an MDF factory :D ) |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
| that looks mint bro!! lookin' good |
|
|
| Fautthew |
| looking tight son, ill have to stop by some time and check it out, itll look so tight once its all done man. :bthumbup: |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
| yea im coming in this weekend boys......we'd be stupid not to install my alarm/RS |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |

|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
| Not a whole lot more to say on the Trooper project right now, except all the door panels are done and installed, picked up some new deep cycle batteries today, and new speakers all around, rocking the Focals, sound amazing :D |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
| Update: changing the bottom half of the door panels, to a new shape, laying down fiberglass as we speak, to be covered in suede again (I love that stuff). Pictures to come soon, maybe step by step tutorials for anyone else interested in glassing. |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
| good to hear shits coming along good man, cant wait to roll to cgy and check everything out! we gotta do some glassing in the 'fire bro |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
Yeah man for sure, I've just gotta build my new amp rack and sub box first then we can glass up the fire, what did you have in mind?
Oh and BTW my lower door panels came out awesome! Baby's ass smooth :D and I built full sealed enclosures for the Focal 6.5" midbass drivers in the doors :D |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
sweet man, sounds like u got some crazy talent with the FG, i wouldnt know where to start...
i wanna FG my rear speaker panel, FG custom door panels, and possibly go all the way with a custom dash and centre console in the future, and granted a custom system enclosure in the trunk |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
We'll glass that shit over the summer :D
Speaking fo which I gotta get my ass into my garage and build the form for my box and amp rack :cool: |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
| While furiously modding in order to get Troopy done for DTP I've started various other mods that came to me as good ideas while doing some other mod. So today when taking apart the rear seats for reaphoulstry, the rear armrest screamed mod me at me, so I took it apart cut out some of the foam that makes it up and have started making a mold for the two rear remote controls for the headrest screens, this will be finished as a recessed FG piece painted to match the outside of the truck, I ahve waaayyy to much time on my hands :D Pics will follow in the next few days, once I glass it up, and decide if anything else will go in there as well. Oh you'll only see this when the armrest is down to :D |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
beauty...
right now i have some of the interior apart and being painted, i gotta do dash and door panels yet, they need sanding, then after that finish up with paint n shit,
i wanna try and get the door panels off today and sanded. tomorrow prime and paint, then on monday i can finish up by removing the dash and rear panels and getting those sanded...should be all done by then end of next week
i should have the console done today and will get some pics up on my cardomain addy....
www.carodomain.com/id/sunfiredude
pics will be on pg 2 |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
| haha sweet man thx! |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
looking good chris! so tight...
im too lazy to get pics, i will be sure to get some once the new interior is finished though.....awww DTP cant wait meng |
|
|
| Fautthew |
| chris im likeing the ride and what im hearing man, definitly going to have to see that all finished and at the show. thatll be tight kid. the trooper rolling out in style. Still looking for other to enter in as a group. well i know you really want the M3 in there boyz, but it just doesnt have the custom mods done like you boyz. its all good though. keep us updated with the pics. |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
Matt I think you need to get a BWM M3 badge on the back of the ride haha (j/k that would be mad rice) :D
Matt, the M3 in there would be pimp but she's gotta be modded up first, DTP won't even let you in without some sort of mods typically for this show. It's all good though you just bought the damn thing, there's plenty of modding time to come, I can see mods on the horizon :D |
|
|
| Fautthew |
| o dont you worry chris, there is lots of time for mods on the horizon. first things first gotta get that damn green thing people call money, then can do the add-ons slowly. maybe dax can make me a huge M3 POWER decal to go on the side of my car. yeah right:rolleyes: |
|
|
| SLVRBLU |
haha i can make you whatever u want, but i suggest
"MUGEN M3 TYPE-R" |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
Oh only on the side of your car Matt? Nah, what you have to do is make it so big it wraps around the entire car.
After my exams are done Matt we need to organize a couple of things:
1) The new gambling contest we thought up in your kitchen
2) The foursome, also thought up in your kitchen hahahahaha
And you're coming out this Sat. night if you're not working.
Peace Yo. |
|
|
| Fautthew |
You know i think i should wrap my car in one big decal, even unuderneath the car where know one can see it.
whats going on for sat night there chris bud, i work the day shift, but i will probably come out after im done my shift. i probably just wont stay out late since i have to work sunday morning as well. We do have to talk about a those things man, we gotta do that contest before forbes leaves town, and well the foursome, were going to have to plan another drunken night with the girls. :lol: we also gotta chat about may-long and see what people want to do, cause we gotta go camping or something man, id be pimpin.
Dax bud, are you putting any decals on the car like what you used to have on, or are you just leaving the solid paint job? |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
| When are you getting the top painted Dax? |

4x4 unfortuneately, and i dunno about the price of bags. Im not that rich, i might just do a 6" drop, try to pick up some rims in a 19" or bigger, in dash dvd screen, as far as audio goes im gonna try to pick up some 15" strokers or something and make pimp box in the back aswell as full component set up. Got any hook ups agent orange or anything in mind?
you can add me to the ole msn if you want, chiram000 at hotmail dot com |
|
|
| Agent_Oorange |
Holy crap man a 6" static drop. That's pretty damn low, I don't know the numbers for that truck but I think with a 6" drop you're probably looking at putting 18"s on, maybe 19"s but you'd probably have to rock rediculously low pro tires, with that kinda drop don't go too low on tire profile cause the ride will be really rough.
When you say pimp box in the back do you mean loud as fuck box or a tight looking box? 15" Strokers are redicolous, I frankly wouldn't use them unless you plan on competing, DB Drag style. I'd seriously recommend a pair of 12"s or some 10"s (I'm rocking 4 10"s right now and 2 yrs ago with them I was 2nd loudest DB Drag Street B vehicle in Canada, in a huge fucking box though, however in their new sealed boxes they are nice and tight for music). I can build you a loud as fuck box if that's the route you're wanting to go but it'll be big and bulky.
For screens, I'd say go with a Clarion or Pioneer. Buy it used if you're lokoing to save cahs, they don;t hold value terribly well. Pioneer AVIC-N1 or the N2 is now out :bthumbup: But bring $$$ for the N2. If you're going full component setup but want decent sound at relatively cheap prices see if you can find a place that sells Hertz Audio, made by Audsion (they make sick sick amps). Audio Concepts mobile up here is the only place in Calgary to get them, however there's prolly a few sites that sell it online. Linky: Hertz AV.
Those are just my ideas though, and if I ahve one piece of advice for the audio system is: DON'T TOUCH ALPINE, I personally can not stand they way their speakers sound and I'm not a huge fan of their decks either, overpriced for what you get.
Oh and for your wheels I'm not sure if you have auto locking hubs on the front of your ride but if you do you'll probably need something with a 110mm centre bore (usaul is like 75mm), and with a center cap that will accomodate the hub sticking out. Again not sure if this applies to the Jimmy or not. I might be interested in selling my 20"s for the right price, they will accomodate auto lock hubs too (looking at Antera 235 in 23" :bowdown: ) Get a hold of me on MSN if you want to chat more about this I'll help you out where I can, glad to see someone else into the SUV scene!! If you want a price on soemthing let me know what it is as I might be able to hook you up. |

| I got me a pair of suede front seats :D Well still need to do the armrests and headrests before I put them back in and mount the XBox and DVD changer under the seats before I put them back in. Oh and Isuzu designed the stupidest rear headrests in the world, I had to use the dremal to saw parts of metal off to get the headrests out, fucking Japanese engineers make things too good lol. |

Yeah, somehow you've made that suprisingly possible for a sunfire...:bthumbup: |

| He'll only be miles ahead of you if the road is perfectly flat. At the first sign of the slightest dip or bump Dax will have to slow down to like 10miles/hr to go over it haha. You know I'm just kidding around Dax. :D |

As requested, here's an updated picture of the Trooper. Taken yesterday, in the process of getting ready to lay the back of the sub boxes into place. Theses pieces were fiberglassed today. The supports made of 2x8"s back there are for the amps, obviously these will be covered up with glass once I lay the top area down. Can't really describe what I'm going after here but I know what I want and I'm working towards it haha. Big pic I know..

Chris bud, the rides looking like its coming together nicely, hopefully ill be able to see it all finished this weekend. Im heading out to my cabin on saturday morning, so depending on the time that the car show starts i might be able to drop by and check out your rides for a little while. So let me know when it starts and dax let me know what deal you can get me, perferably free, especially since im only going to be dropping by to check out the instinct section, then bouncing out. but let me know when the doors open in the morning and Ill see if i can stop by quickly and check out the rides.
peace out boyz. |

peace.

| I opted out of showing the Trooper in this show, I could have half assed it together and got it done in time but it would have been just that a half assed job that I don't want my name attached to, so it just couldn't happen for this show, I'l show it when I consider it perfect :D |
