Re: Jaybags' Hilux - Slow build - Snorkels on!

[samous]

Nah not in Stock, all good though, I knew thered be a wait, pretty keen on getting it soon!

[Richiesupercharged]

How's the fusion sub going?

[jaybags]

It's going good, pretty good for a small sub. Tunes sound a lot better, it's a tight bass, and not too much of it.
Still want to get a new head-unit though so I can see it's full potential. It's still just using the high-frequency range from being wired directly into the speakers rather than the RCA's.

[MADDOG]

Hey Kent, how's the build going? Anything new? Every Kent wants to know!

[SRLUXX]

Yeah nice build up kent! Coming along not too bad kent, ehehehe

[jakelux]

[getshakylikejakey]

Keeeeeent, need an update on how the lux builds going kent! Hope all is going well, and never hesitate to ask a kent a question!




Kent out!

[jaybags]

These kents! Builds slowed down, waiting on kents to pay their invoices so I can get more things. Kents. Snorkels next.

Only done slight things like sikaflex the tailgate tub-liner to hold it's tension against my tonneau.

Trying to sort a few things out Jake, should be, but will confirm 100% tomorrow. Bloody keen to can tell ya that much.

[MADDOG]

Good stuff Kent!

Hey jay how do you like the rear air bags

[jaybags]

I don't have any rear air bags? Just Ultimates comfort leafs and shocks.

This was suppose to be posted some where else. Sorry,
Fantastic build by the way

[jaybags]

Haha, all good!

Thanks mate.

[jaybags]

Been a bit slow with mods, was supposed to have my snorkel by now, but clients seem to be having issues paying their invoices, and unexpected expenses have popped up.. so might be a little while away now.

Still got a squeel coming when I accelerate for a split second sometimes, getting really annoying, changed the belts, and nothing. Hoping it's not the AC Compression plate...

Exhaust has come slightly loose somewhere too.. can hear it rattle when I drive. Might have to make that a priority soon...

Finally installed my new horn. Def much better and needed, especially for those morons who can't drive throughout the city. Going to have a bit of fun with the horn now.

[BIGFOOTJR]

That horn is huge!

[nicebike]

Horn doesn't heat up the skinny OE wiring????

I have something similar sitting on the shed floor ready to go, but am a little concerned that the weight might crack the standard mount on corrugations. Also not sure about the load on the wiring as the draw must be much greater.

[jaybags]

Haha, yeah the horn's a little bigger than I expected. Sits just a few mm behind the bar.

Not sure what you mean nice - i'm not the greatest with wiring, still learning and hoping I don't set the car on fire..

I used 30amp red wiring for most of it. I'm sure the brackets would hold up, otherwise could make a better bracket and mount it a little more internally couldn't you?

[ONBAGZ]

30 amp wire is perfect for that kinda job. Well done on it but love that bar aswell

You sure is isnt just that pully squeling like when up the High Country?

[jaybags]

Ya know, it might be actually. Just figured it'd be a constant squeel like up there. I'll give it a spray of wd40 and see if it helps, if not i'll try replace it.
