biketrialler Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Why oh why would anyone do that to a 1.0l Corsa!? Dont get me wrong mate, theres nothing wrong with Corsas, they are reliable little runaround cars suitable as first cars. Economical, small, can take a bike, reliable etc. But its not a sports car, why would you put massive wheels on it like that. It doesnt look smart, it just marks you out as having a stereotypical chav type car. (Y) You might well not be a chav, but you've got a ghetto stylee car!

If you dont belive me get into a hellfrauds and compare them to all the others on display... John, did you not know that if you run 6*9's and a sub you get street cred? :P Not to mention how everything will sound like its coming from the back even though your sat at the front. Also dont forget that all the bass will sound muddled and wank and that the sub will destroy the 6*9's. Since when has Alpine stuff been cheap?

JTM Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 to be honest I dont really might performance upgrades. Air filters etc give a smoother feel etc as do full exhaust systems. But what I can stand is shitty back boxes, crappy lights, stickers, pieces of plastic and other shite stuck to it. And as for sony car audio, its simply terrible. Well especially the Xplod stuff. Ive currently got a Sony CDX-M880 head unit and it isnt THAT bad, but thats only cos I didnt pay for it. It was a £250 head unit which I got for free, if i was paying that for a HU it would be alpine all the way or even a nice Pioneer. Can I just ask what made you buy those 6x9s?

In hellfrauds it was only the Sony head units that read every file on a mp3 CD I played with... This was nearly 1 year ago so maybe mp3 head units have gone up in the world but thats why I went for a Sony (Note I had a £150 budget at the time and did not want to buy from the internet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTM Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Yeah as you say, sony headunits arnt the worst out there. But their also no longer the best for the money. The major problem I found with the MP3 factor of sony hu's is that they dont play wma's. Not a total loss as wma files are crap, but if alot of your music on PC is wma then you have problems. I was making mp3 CDs and the odd song was missing here and there, was confusing but they were wma's. Sony speakers are unforgiveable though. Unless there is no alternative, ie due to mounting depth or diameter which you cant change, there should be no need to buy sony. I only spent £50 on front JBL components, and while not the best in the world, they had a decent bass output for a pair of comps which is what i needed due to no sub and standard rears.

that NBR dude Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Ahh the joy of having your entire audio set-up given for free (Y) Pioneer HU worth £295 (all be it a good few years old), Alpine 13s up front, JBL 6x9s in the back.

I would love to do some mods to my car (performance) stiffer springs, chip it etc. BUT I just don't want the hassel of insurance and engine/car damage that may occur.
