:nod: Most likely. I haven't broken open the speaker cabs in my trunk but a friend and I both agree that's probably what they are, but as soon as I can afford bigger subs and a crossover I can really be thumpin. :)

yeah, most stock subs are 8s.  it's hard to find any car that comes standard with subs though, that's interesting.

i remember in the other car thread i made that you were interested in those.  in America we call them 18-wheelers, or semis.  no.  i don't drive one, and i don't know anyone who does :p

a H2?  naaa man, the Hummer 1 was better.  i could tell you a dozen reasons why.   that's why it costs close to double what the newer, H2, costs. :nod: :)

Post by: Corsair114 on August 02, 2003, 03:15:48 pm
But as for my car: It's a 1969 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S. Normal engine would be a 340-V8, but since thoe are hella hard to find, we're putting a 318-V8 in(engine the 340-V8 was based around). My Barracuda is the fastback version. :D

I love that car... I can't wait 'till it's done. It was a steal at $1100, even as beat-up as it was with the wrong engine in it it's worth $8000.

:cool:
