Yaris Sedan Deadening and Sound system upgrade

[derickveliz2]

Would love to check out your SRT-4 Sqcomp!

I invested in my Yaris enough to make it sound really good. And it's not a waste it's pure pleasure every day and I would do it in any car that I own.

Yaris performance I know, it's only 106 HP but modifying the suspension makes me take corners and ramps like a sport car and leave others behind, around here you can't really go 10-15 mph past speed limit. )o:

There is a kid that has (2) 15" Kicker Solo-Baric woofers with 1000 watts in his Jeep Cherokee, it's LOUD! but... one day brought him into the Yaris... he almost sells away his woofers that day, His system might be LOUD but when you are in the sweet spot it's like heaven!

If I ever get to own a Mercedes Benz or BMW I would move my system into any other car and make it sound good.

BTW I pay nothing for my Yaris, I had an old 97' Tacoma and it was rusted, Toyota gave me enough to pay for the Yaris.

No bad feelings around here pure LOVE to our cars.

I have, I did, and I will keep posting pictures.

Probably one of the biggest threads with pictures here in YarisWorld.

Not really done, but getting there, it's the never ending story.

Some of you have seen this little portfolio I put together that gives you the idea of what's going on in the Yaris.

Perhaps if you ever get to this side of the country, we could take it for a spin. By the time you do, you'll need a helmet and to be able to latch a five point up!

[derickveliz2]

I'll bring my helmet!

Kaotic!

you asked me about the OEM front door baffles here are a few pictures, did you get your new speakers? and Yes I guess you can just cut the OEM speaker without destroying the rib-bets and try to screw the new speaker in.

I never noticed the 3" mids before! If I didn't say it before, you have one hell of a car =D. Diggin' everything

Thanks,

Yeah! the 3" Mids are in the kick area, they play almost as a Point Source and responsible for most of the Sound Stage running from 250 Hz to 6.3 kHz. They play a very important roll with Time Alignment T/A and when it comes to Left & Right EQ the location and aiming it's critical. Inside a car reflections are terrible.

BUMP...!

[sqcomp]

Shameless bump right there D! Shameless! I would NEVER use a bump to raise my post count. :P hehe

Making this post bump relevant...

...Are there any plans to compete next year for you? (completely leading question, knowing insider information and generally causing trouble)

Bump fun!

If I have the chance I will.

The system is way far superior now compare to when I competed at Syracuse.

but it's all about personal enjoyment now and I will enjoy it as much as I can and you know what I mean.

This weekend they're having IASCA finals for the west coast location not 5 miles away from my house.

Until the government shutdown, I wasn't going to be able to make it...

I might stop by just to cause trouble and visit old friends. I'm hoping J.J. Dubec will be there with his Gladen setup on his GTR. That'll give the pro or pro/am class something to worry about. I'll do my best to help him wreck that class, brands be damned.

[derickveliz2]

I feel that way too, for now I'm happy, I accomplished what I thought it would never be possible, I learn how to do it, I know how it works, I enjoy doing it and I'll do it again! and I will.

I hate to say it but the Yaris sounds so good that I want everybody to listen to it, but at the same time I feel selfish and rather just keep it for my self, I enjoy every track, old or new, Rap or Classic.

My next little project is RTA for left and right ear and me sitting at the sweet spot, call me crazy but I love it.

You know I understand your feelings about the Yaris.

Whatever I can do to help with whatever next step you take, let me know.

What I'm looking at now is:

Pioneer Head Unit P99, if I could hide the back box and have a connection to the face of the unit, like if the box would be inside the glove compartment and the face some where else.


What do you think?
