That's a wonderful looking ride. I'm doing a bunch of research on aftermarket possibilities for this car before I get it. I noticed that you have Infinity Kappa 5x7" and the 6.5" Did you get the 2 or 3 way 6.5"? 62.5l or 63.5l? I'm curious because that is the exact setup I am planning on. How do you like them?

Sweet. I love the white on white just as much as cars with black on black.
Those rims are sweet.
Seems to match the car color perfectly.
I'm scared to get white rims for my car, cause it seems to have a slight off white to it.

Thanks for all the comments everyone! My next mods are prolly gonna be tint and lowering springs, so it should look alot better then.

I decided to get the 2 way infinity kappas.
1.) Because they were cheaper.
2.) Because I figured that with the sub, it would sound more like a component system if I went with the 2 way. A more complete sound. Maybe I'm wrong. Who knows?
But anyways, I like the way they sound alot. The highs are very precise and never distort, well, I've never been able to get them to distort.
My only problem with the system is that the system has this buzzing sound. I'm really not sure what it is. I had a friend check all the wiring and all the runs had clear signals. Maybe the installer ran the remote wire on the same side as the rcas. I'll have to check. The thing that is weird is that sometimes, it won't play certain sounds I know are in the song. Like if there is a certain guitar solo, it won't even be there. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for your reply. I think I might get the 2-ways when the time comes. As for your problem, does the noise increase in pitch with rpms? If so, you have noise from your rca's getting interferrence ... usually from power cable and such. Other than that, I'm not sure what it could be... have you tried changing decks to test that out?
