Yeah because $320 is a lot, and I could def. use it for other things until the parts are in stock if I would end up waitin a month anyway. *What is it cost around with the shipping and tax included on the $320 that you ordered? Do you remember what it end up bein? Just curious because I am literally saving for one at this moment. I got paid today and tryin to figure total exact cost because I want to order mine in the next 1-2 checks if possible to get it in before "summer" So i can use it all summer long an enjoy it.

I guess if I order mine next month, I will make sure to call ahead of time and make sure they have them in stock at that exact time before placing my order, I would prefer the 5-7 days as I know you would have loved as well.

I just checked a topic I started with them about these alts and they said est. 5-7 days, and He said if housings are in stock maybe even 1-2 bus. days. BUT... On mine it says he is getting more housings for these alts in on monday the 28th of march ( this monday ) so it sounds like they were temp. out of stock and getting them in monday?..

:L Urgh, I was planning on purchasing an alt next month from DC for my 1997 honda civic HB.. they said usually ships out 48hrs I thought?.. well at least if you pick one of the "3" on the site.. Now im nervous to order from DC.. I really wanted one next month but this makes me nervous Lol.. ( especially since we have the same alt choices as each other.. I was going to order I believe the same one you are speaking of Priced @ $320?.. )

I bought a used battery and it works like a charm, But I guess it all depends on how the previous owner treated it. I bought mine from someone on here and I know it was treated very good 13v is possible I believe on Kinetik batts like I run, So I assume it is possible on xs batts.

Here's some pics from when I did my big 3 upgrade: ( Now these are all wired to my new Kinetik HC 1400r Battery up front ) Edit.. Here i'll repost some of the new battery pics in full size now for the "now" look.

Thanks did em myself woot! I usually do stuff with friends over but those I actually risked it and went all out one day and they turned out surprisingly well.

I remember when I thought I was cool runnin my w7.. Then I heard this kid's fi ssd 12 and I was like holy momma thats nice.. never heard of that.. And looked it up and eventually ended up on ssa.com and havin a sundown amp and a fi sub.. Lol. I hate when kids are like LOL sundown.. what is sundown, that must be crap.. and what the heck is "fi" is that an off brand.. ( I cant wait to get my 18" xcon.. then they will be like "LOL what's a "SSA"?? " then I'll slap the crap outta their face and they will be like "Oh.. so that's an SSA XCON"

Some random pics I took of my car in the fall, Just so you kinda get an idea of what it is this is all in.. ( not sayin my car is clean inside or out, they are just random ) Tinted TailLights (This was during speaker install.. The random wires are for led's they were on the dual speakers.. decided they were dumb and took off wires.. too much of a pain (made speakers glow blue ) Old Voltmeter ( Just install digital stinger the other day )

It's actually just wire from a memphis set I got at my local audio shop. I go there all the time so the guy gave me like $10 off that pack which included an anl fuse holder and it ended up cheaper than I could have bought everything separately at the price he gave it to me for.

Lol, alright. I guess it will just have to play on the 1200 until I get money for a 2,000-2,500 watt amp. ( plus I think the 1200 might put out over 1200 with good voltage.. so maybe since im gettin a new alt first that will boost the voltage and amp power anyway until I can afford the next amp I Just need that xcon so bad, I can't wait to blow the crap outta my civic!! this wimpy 18" ssd already tortures my civic but man the xcon hahahaha I cant wait

Dude I know right, these amps are so beast! Hey question anyone.. If i purchase an Xcon 18 and run it on my sundown sax 1200d.. Is it goin to still pound.. I mean ,.. 1st I need my alt then next I want the xcon.. and I wont be able to get a new amp until after that, I figure 1200 is still quite a bit of power but it handles close to 2,000 So i wasnt sure if 1200 would even flex it much.

I think an SSA Xcon would be perfect for what you want. Unless you get a good deal on a Fi BL/Btl on here those are both good as well. I love my 18" Fi ssd, I just want more output as Im a basshead and need like 30,000wrms before Im happy. ( I would even consider sellin you my 18" Fi Ssd if you don't find another deal first ) Im plannin on gettin a new setup soon if possible. Its dual 2ohm and can run 800-1000w all day long

I also found a few pics from when I was hooking up my Kinetik hc600 for my trunk

Here are pics from when I got my Sundown SAX 1200d and my wiring last Sept. (2010) This thing is my baby and I love it! Best amp ever and would recommend Sundown amps to EVERYONE!! BUY IT!!

looks like a need to buy an Xcon 18" so I can be a team member and get a sticker to represent. This 18" ssd isn't cuttin it anyway, it's lame sauce compared to what i want, but i'm kinda waitin to see more about this Zcon..

ftw = Sundown, Ftw cheap version = AQ FTW Cheaperrr version = Audiopipe FTL = walmart amps..

I love Freebies!

Lol at everyone commenting at old thread.. but since it's up again, I use 12awg for speaker to amp, 4awg power/ground, 1200w to 1 Fi ssd Is there a difference in power wire & speaker wire?.. or are they interchangeable.. ( do i need more than 12awg for my sub to amp?..)

Alright sorry lol, I guess I made them small but they are clickable, But yeah i'll get em up bigger for you guys so there is no clicking needed

So I was looking on the DC Site for the available alts for a 1997 honda civic 1.6L and I saw there were 3 options: 1. HP Series for $399 - does 180 max & 130 idle 2. Pro Series for $320 - does 210 max & 100 idle 3. OEM Series for $349 - does 170 max & 110 idle I was wondering the differences between these different series lines.. and also why the pro costs less but has the highest max output?.. Is the hp way better? if so why?.. just wondering because the $400 tag on them.. I guess I just dont know the difference between the different lines of alts really. -Jordan

Just got home from work about an hour ago and found this came in the mail!! Blue Stinger Digital Voltmeter!! I've wanted one for so long! I cant wait to get rid of my junky one I got at an auto parts store, this one I will actually be able to tell the voltage as its exact and digital One question, When I set my voltage on this, Do I do it with the engine off?.. like turn the key to acc, but have the engine "off" ? Or do I need the engine on to set the voltage using my dmm and screwdriver?

Thanks for the encouragement lol, sometimes I get in the mood to take a day and accomplish something awesome like this and others, if i find a cheap deal I get them to do it as i know they will do it correctly and if not they will fix it til its right lol. Im afraid id get it out and not be able to get the new one in and then get depressed. but either way ill figure it out I guess.

dang ouch, we have a friend who owns a shop ( i bought my car from him as well) who usually gives us outstanding deals ( sometimes labor for free or next to nothing, so I may ask him a quote, if its much ill get some buddys for a guys weekend and we'll get on it lol, He fixed me up not long ago, new water pump, timing belt, new radiator, thermostat, hoses and all labor plus a few other parts I cant think of all for what $300 bucks, when the timing belt alone usually cost $500.. ( the 300 included all parts and labor Rofl )

Oznium is the bomb, Have purchased plenty of times and they always ship fast BUT for underglow I use http://www.ledunderbody.com/ They are amazing, they have some legit kits and I just got an e-mail for 15% off any purchase now through march 31st Just use the code "Spring2011" Hook yourselves up. I had the 7 color underglow kit, ( they stopped making mine and just released the 7 color SLIMLINE underglow kit!! I'm getting the new slimline after I get my alt ) It is free shippin over $50 I believe and was very fast when I got mine, comes with a keychain remote that turns on/off, changes color, and also changes pattern if wanted and pattern speed on remote.
