Replaced the Bazooka system with a Rockford Fosgate all-in-one box. Didn't take any pics of it tho. Haha

Kaotic Lazagna · 12-01-2019, 10:15 AM

The Bazooka will be going back into Snow White, and the harness from Dory will be given to my friend (who I gave my broken, but easily fixed 100w Bazooka to).

How does the Rockford compare to the Bazooka?

Haven't really tried pushing the RF yet since I want it to break in after a few hours of playing.

But at the lower volume, I think the Bazooka can have more bass, but it sounds like it's basically one tone of bass, and "farty" bass at that. The RF sounds richer and cleaner. That's partly due to the sealed box versus ported enclosure, but also the amp is better on the RF than the Bazooka. The bass of the Bazooka is similar to the factory FR-S door woofers and amp (not a good thing), just louder. lol. The Bazooka can produce a lot of bass for being 50 watts compared to the RF which is rated at 300w RMS.

I still think the Bazooka is a good buy (granted I didn't pay for either of mine) if you're looking for a simple and quick way to add some low end to your music. I actually think the 50w version sounds better than the 100w version. You don't need to run any cables through the firewall with either 50w or 100w tubes. I had to run a power cable through the firewall for the RF unit.

I got the 10" hatchback style RF unit on sale for $200 with the amp install kit for free. So it was a great deal imo. I got it on SonicElectronix in case anyone is wondering. Crutchfield doesn't have it on sale, just the 12" versions which I did not want.

I <3 Dory updates

Kaotic Lazagna · 12-16-2019, 04:58 AM

Didn't get a chance to take pictures, but I got my old Megan lower tie bars back (they were powder coated a goldish color). Installed the front and rear, but not the middle. Does anyone know the size and thread pitch of the bolts for the middle tie bar? I gotta go buy them.

Since this happened while driving Dory on Monday, figured I'd share it.

Woah...

Leegamer · 12-23-2019, 08:27 AM

WTF?

NYC-SE · 12-23-2019, 12:31 PM

Death wish or stupidity?

ern-diz · 12-23-2019, 01:06 PM

DUUUUUDE!!

That was not a mere idiot standing on the freeway. That was an individual trying to commit suicide. Either that, or blackout drunk/high. He wasn't trying to cross, it's clear he was walking straight at you and towards the center of the lane. That was eerie as hell. Didn't even flinch. Your reaction was superb, especially for 4 am!

I've shared this with so many people already lol. So crazy.

I'll never know. First thought was stupidity, but when I watched the video on my computer and saw he was walking towards my car, that thought changed to death wish. Actually, my initial thought was he killed the occupants of the SUV in the side of the road, but I didn't hear anything on the news. After thinking about it more, I then thought it might have been a demented family member of that SUV who walked out onto the freeway when they were doing what ever they had to do on the side.

It was actually 3am, I forgot to adjust the time for day light savings

However, if that was later on in the week after working several 11-hour shifts, my reaction times would have been much slower. Would have probably hit him. What's more crazy is the camera picks up more light than what our eyes can see, so I actually only saw him right when I said, "oh shit!"

But that's why I have a dash cam, and tell everyone to invest in one since you'll never know when you'll need to prove something.

Leegamer · 12-24-2019, 08:25 AM

I've been thinking of getting a dash cam and this has really pushed me in that direction.

What is your setup?

iirc, it's the version 1 of the Viofo A119 (not the S). My FR-S has the simple Thinkware F50. I'll eventually upgrade to a 2 channel system and probably set that up to do parking mode.

kevinj93 · 12-24-2019, 04:28 PM

I have the Viofo A119S in my Yaris. It's the second version, whixh apparently has improved contacts to the GPS mount. I have to agree it sees much better in the dark the you can see in the headlights.

Kaotic Lazagna · 05-10-2020, 08:51 PM

Had the front and rear lower tie bars installed for a while now. Only now found bolts that works for the center tie bar.
