im 16 years old and im dying to get my hands on a rx8. Im planning on putting in a sub and want to see some cool setups. So post your pics


Thanks

 

Don't get subs..

 

^depends on what you want. sound/looks or speed? also, if you get a removable setup you get the best of both worlds

 

^Very true, But in my opinion, i think the stock system is loud enough. And since he's 16, he should worry about driving his car and paying attention, not blasting his music, which will distract him.

 

yeah how about you put that money into some driving classes? i mean your young and your chances of getting in an accident cause of inexperience is a lot higher than most people with rx8s. oh and first get an rx8 then see what you really want.

 

True that. well im a pretty good driver and plan on focusing on the speed of the car. do you have any opinions on upgrades, such as a cold air intake or something like that..?

 

and i plan on taking a defensive driving class...

 

Im currently putting my rx8 on the market. So let me know. It still under warrenty. Pm meabout details.

 

^Before you go posting other questions like, Which intake should i get? or... Does an exhaust really make you go faster? you need to search. All of the questions have been answered, so just read the stickies, and learn everything you can about the car, before you buy it.

 

i'll tell u, u are not gonna get any noticable boost with any bolt ons, period, FI is the only way to go.


now, i've just tried autocrossing... that i highly recommend....(i did not drift in autocross i swear!.. i lost control...ya.. tats it.)

okay, so this is in a 7 and not an 8 but had to post since it was from today's meet. now that's what you call a sub.

 

Trix - you will find alot more useful information in the "interior, audio, and electronics" forum.. Lots of REALLY cool stuff can be done..

here is mine - https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-interior-audio-electronics-24/corksport-avic-z2-experience-review-rest-my-alpine-system-121032/

 

I'm not a big audiophile but more of weight reduction freak. However, I wanted a decent bump on my tunes during long trips.
I found the JVC CS-BB2 to be the perfect compromise.

 

back to the original question...


Here's my setup:

 

Looks good Jedi, but how do you fit your golfclubs in the trunk now?

 

golf??? what's that???

 

Heathen!

 

Pics of mine.

 

Are those W7
anyways all your set ups are sick. I really like what yall have done with them.

 

i agree with you. now days, loud music is the cause a lot of the accidents. people listening to their music and cant hear their surrounding.

dont ever think you are a good driver when you just start driving. and IMO you are not very in to cars, which i think you are not a very good driver. why? the first thing you ask about a rx8 is subs, and sound system. i mean thats the first thing you ask lol. then cold air intake, i mean im sure everyone knows that term now after fast and furious the movie. but its just very childish and a silly comment.

dont have to take it personal, but i dont think rx8 is your type of car.

 

Here is mine =] bungee cord FTW

 

kinda agree with the stig ...coz if u HAD driven an 8 + enjoy its sound system , u PROBABLY wont want the speakers first ...

 

Well the bose system sounds really nice but the non-bose sounds like pure poop =[ that was the first mod i did to mine. I couldn't stand it, the system sounded SO BAD! so i dropped like 1600 just on speakers and an amp =P

 

Well, here's my setup for now. https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-interior-audio-electronics-24/alpine-plv-7-install-123901/
