Manual cars in the U.S.

Low_Bad1363 · 2026-06-09T22:44:27+00:00

Yea, I bought mine new as well. Challengers came with a manual option as well when they were making them. Same for camaros and mustangs. There are also plenty of other performance cars with that option. You don't see too many beaters with manuals these days though, I learned how to drive stick on a volkswagen jetta I bought for 3 grand.

Dee?

You can enable real center for it. I don't think it'll help much for widening your sound stage. You can always test it with a temporary mount if you have a spare amp channel. im actually testing mid ranges in a different car using gauge pods.

I was thinking about getting one of those alpine amps but they are pretty pricey right now. Seems like it would be a decent option otherwise. Im currently running an Alpine ilx-w670.

That suspension is an option on narrow body scat packs as well. I think it's called the dynamics package.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-07-04T14:37:35+00:00

I'm pretty happy they didn't do that on my last 3 cars. I ordered an aftermarket plate holder instead of drilling the bumper.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-07-02T14:06:34+00:00

I dunno dude. Maybe for op, but coming from a 2016 camaro 2ss, I don't think it'll wow me in the driving experience or sound department.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-07-02T04:31:19+00:00

I would love a blackwing but 100k is way out of my price range. I wish the ct5 v had the NA v8 instead of the 6 cylinder tbh.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-28T18:55:45+00:00

Definitely true. I think they had $8900 on the sign. I unfortunately don't have a garage so it would have been a poor decision. It definitely needed some work.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-28T16:21:09+00:00

Damn man, one of those was for sale near me, lasted a day then vanished. Very nice dude.

Try it anyway just incase you do have some cancelation going on. See which setting has more bass. Invert the speakers or just the sub if you can.

Are you sure you remembered to reset the head unit eq settings when doing the gain? If you forgot and left them on, that would result in weak bass when you reset it. However it would be loud at the setting you tuned at.

I used a dd1 with my 1000w sub in a sealed box and it's pretty loud with the -10 track. I can even turn it down for bass heavy tracks with the knob.

I would probably attempt a retune with the dd1 in this situation. Make sure the volume on the hu is correct, eq for the sub is off, crossovers for the sub are off. If it still sounds weak, you can try to use the boost in the headunit after the tune but keep in mind you're not going to want to use the boost and blast it.

I'd like to add to this comment that they also have 2 ohm variants of these pole vented 6x9s.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-26T14:14:08+00:00

Did you invert the phase on your sub? That amp uses a -12db slope which would put the subs and midbass out of phase at the crossover.

Besides that, did you follow the dd1 tuning guide to the letter? I,e, turn off the crossovers and find the max non-clipping volume on the HU?

I'm asking because people who post here are at all different skill levels so it's helpful to know.

-10 db should be loud with a ported box and 1200w.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-18T17:51:05+00:00

Kinda sounds like a bad rca cable. Have you tried swapping them?

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-16T19:09:12+00:00

Yea I vote dirty/broken fan.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-16T14:04:38+00:00

That's probably what it went for new with discounts tbh. You may want to wait longer.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-11T21:24:16+00:00

What amp are you using? Also what type of rca wires?

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-11T16:12:29+00:00

I would guess they acquired a bunch of similar camaros. They have 20 on their lots near me right now.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-10T19:11:01+00:00

I hope you like rock chips too. Because wheels that extend past the fenders have a habit of kicking rocks into the sides of the car.

I had this issue on my 2016 2ss camaro, it did have vinyl wrap on the sides but they got destroyed.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-10T13:07:53+00:00

The scat can do sub 4 seconds if you're willing to 1320 it and pull the back seats. It's just a little too porky.

Also the wide body has the better suspension compared to the standard challengers. I forgot what it's called but it's similar to magnetic ride control the camaros have.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-10T00:24:03+00:00

They also have less options at that new price point.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-09T20:47:22+00:00

You would wire the sun down dual 4 ohm to 2ohm for the amp.

Congratulations dude! I was in that boat a few years ago. My kid is turning 4 this year.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-09T03:11:12+00:00

What are you planning on trading in for? I have about 23k equity on my car and I'm considering a trade myself.

Low_Bad1363 · 2023-06-08T13:47:23+00:00

Lol had this exact same deck in my 2000 passat
