Almost done my dash.

I put a layer of paint on one of my door panels only to notice I have a little more sanding to do

Guide coat is good to find these problems before paint.

And stay away from the bridges

I have hit my head before and probably will again. Luckily no sleeping in the water for me yesterday!

Good football game on tonight.

Anytime MN plays its good.

Does anyone know about the sound systems in an FJ?

A friend of mine has one and I know you could easily fit a 10 in that big ass door panel if there isn't one already there. and then some sound comes from the headliner????

Never pulled the door off one, but they indeed have some stupid ass speakers mounted up high. I wanna say 4x10's but it has been more than a year since my friend who has one asked what 6 speakers he should buy for his truck. Of course he ignored me completely and went with all Infinity crap from crutchfield in a pre-fab sealed box with power akoustik amps. His truck sounds like complete and utter shit too. Note he isn't a great friend but someone I socialize with on the lake a lot. He got bit by the buy one get one free on the Infinities and bought 4. Two for his boat and one for his and his girls car. God I hate those subs. No lows, peaky even in the right box and the output is crap.

Of course his gains are run super hot and that really, really helps.

[///M5 2,833]

At least in the boat they get some old school PPI love (of course the other two channels are powering some RF 6x9's in little truck boxes). Again with super hot gains and typically run full throttle. I am really impressed the PPI lives. Makes me want some, but also makes me wary of used gear if this is what the average idiot does. And he isn't even an idiot.

Glassing in thick fog is koo! I can see the water falling down the resin!

Ok. Breaktime is over!

We had a hell of a thunderstorm last night. You could read a book by the lightning at 3am. Of course it sucks as I had planned on fishing today, but think they are going to be buttoned up for a few days. There goes the weekends plans

I'm not sure why I did that, yes I know who both of you are. Sorry, just read it wrong. Sheesh ;p

[vladd 26]

tom, get on aim

[vladd 26]

thank you tom :-D

[///M5 2,833]

I might still go on the lake, but instead of bass it will be for bottle bass. Equally as good, but my stomach still needs a bit of time from yesterdays "catch".

[vladd 26]

my control arms are balljointless

[vladd 26]

tools for the job...drill press, hammer, chisel, punch, torch, and a lot of cuss words. Went really smoothly actually

I may need to do that with the Uber soon, except it would fire towards the rear of the car. Would need to keep the spare though, and the amp won't fit on top of it under the floor. Perhaps a false floor may be in order. Shit, need to keep it real simple though - I don't want to have to deal with keeping it cool either.

Have to do some measuring and see what I can do.
