I just, *finally*, put a stereo in my '04 STi. Is anyone with an STi that still is stereo-less?

 

damn, wow. You had that since new?

 

How can you drive without music!?

 

damnit....


i should've told your gf to get you a stereo long time ago!


haha jk!!

btw.. you never come by !! i'm telling ur gf on u!


haha

 

So, what kind of stereo did you get? Must've been something cool if it can convince you to not just listen to engine and road noise while you're driving.

 

yeah im with you, the biggest sound mod ive down was stripped the under seat sub from my moms OBS haha like 80 watt amp or something ha

 

Krinkov, yeah, got it from the dealer in April 2004.

Imprezzy, I got a Clarion VRX765VD (I think that's the model) with some MBQuarts in the doors. No sub, yet. As to driving with just engine and road noise, well, windows down and foot in. Mmmm.... Makes me wanna go for a drive.

 

It's easy man, my engine has been my stereo, and it's been good to me ;-)

 

i would die if i didn't have a stereo in my car.

 

just curious how much you paid.
i went in for a sub estimate and it ended up being $450 at the cheapest. wiring, amp, install other crap they tach on seems like theyre just ripping you off in audio.

$1000 is needed for bottom of the line but decent "system" right?

 

i have a stereo, but i can't hear it over my exhaust

 

I didn't get an estimate for a sub. I'm not really interested in one right now. Running the wires for a sub isn't too hard, definitely something you can do in your driveway. Basically you just need to run wires from your head to the trunk (if that's where you're putting it), and get some decent power in there as well. I wouldn't have a shop do it, only because I'd prefer to save that money.

 

If I didn't get home from work at 3am I'd switch to something louder than my Stromung.

 

ya... i should probably care about my neighbors caring, but i dont

 

that's nuts...

i got my STi in july 2003. in august 2003, i had a conference to go to in portland.

i decided long before that i wanted to drive...

lots of ebay'ing got a sony system that was circa 1996... lol...

but having xm them, it was a breeze... plus the 10 cd changer sure did help...
