Nice! Which amp did you get? I've got a ZX200.2 for my components, and thinking of getting a Kicker 700 watt for my 12, to replace the Rockford Fosgate 700 watt amp I sold. I love Kicker amps.

Yeah, I think I just live too far south to easily find hockey stuff. When I lived in VA I could buy any hockey equipment year round from just about anywhere. But hockey was also a lot more popular up there than it is here, I grew up playing hockey and loved it. Down here most people look at me funny when I talk about hockey lol

Yes, already done and pealed. Will do it again after I cut my 1/4s.

All you guys and your 12's and mad wattage.. I "downgraded" my stereo from my two clarion SVC 10's to my one alpine DVC s-type 10". Left my 250rms amp in.. Went from taking up about 1/2 my cargo space to 1/5th of it. Had to rearrange the gear afterwards but worth it. And it still bumps when I turn it up. That and washed it. Yeah, that's right.. I love mud, but I hate road grit, and the XJ was covered in it..

Got that oil filter adapter leak fixed! Used a 30" pipe taped onto my wrench/T-60 bit/zip tie custom jobbie. It took forever to get this unwieldly tool onto the bolt, but it gave easily with the leverage it afforded me.
The dealership's o-ring kit was an exact fit. The o-rings I had gotten from Rock Auto were 2 out of 3 correct size.
As I was dipping the larger of the internal o-rings into a bottle of oil, I thought it would suck if it slipped out of my fingers into the bottle. Then it totally did. I dumped it into a pan and then re-bottled it. I only lost a couple of ounces. All in all, it went smoothly and my oil filter is no longer dripping onto my transmission lines and starter.

Pulled the old nasty fibreglass headliner out of my '91. Hit up a local yard and sourced a header, intake mani, and a headliner board out of a '98. The headliner has the speaker bar thing. So I modded it to work with my Infinity components....6.5 woofer and 1" tweeter with passive x overs.Ill be recovering it tonight and installing it tomorrow. The intake is going to be subjected to a little old school hot rod tech......port job and polish the runners. The header is going to get wrapped and bolted to a NEW 2.5 " exhaust.
