Wind GT (Stage 2+) | New Wheels

[JE_GT]

What's it sound like mate? Worth upgrading?

 

[MovingShadow]

ICE was one of the last things on my to-do list.

but the difference is huge. I used a compo set on an amp which makes the sound even better.

And it's ALOT louder! For example, when you start up the car for the first time the volume is around 16 I think (?), well you have to put it down to 10-12.
When talking to my gf I had to put it on volume 3 because it was distracting her :lol:

When you put it at volume 20 now (what I usually did with my OEM speakers especially when driving with the roof off) it's like you're standing in a night club, I have to shout at my passenger

When we were adjusting the amp is asked him to tune down the bass because my rear license plate was vibrating :shock:

That sounds like a nice amount of bass and loudness


Turn up the bass and play this song. It will be worth it :twisted:

Pictures of the install:

As you can see in the pic below, we placed the compo sets on the wall behind the seats, each one on the left and right behind the seats. Amp behind the passenger and subwoofer between the 2 seats.

Upgrade from 13 cm to 16 cm speakers.

 

[GhostZ]

nice like it

 

[Dubz]

Mmmmm. What kind out power is the set up making?

 

[MovingShadow]

Amp can go to 800 Watt.

Speakers and subwoofer combined are 600 Watt.

Looks good cant wait to hear this at the shows

 

[MovingShadow]

Looking forward to FCS & seeing you guys again

So I got my OZ's back.

I wanted to lower it a little more but W&D (the guy who installed my coilovers) suggested me not to.

The spring on the rear is already in an akward position, unlike any car he has seen, he doesn't want to strain it more and he wouldn't want me to run in any problems with a broken spring or something.

I hoped he had some spacers in stock that would fit but not for my car, so he's going to get me some. Could possibly already get them today.

15mm spacers for the rear, together with the ET37 of the OZ's should bring the rear wheels flush with the wheelarches.

Oh and 60€ for repairing my wheels, swapping them and giving me a service. I love his prices

Spacers have finally been delivered..

Think I took a month for W&D to get them for me but I needed ones with a 'collar' because they're safer, also more expensive and harder to get, so it seems.. :?

Now I need to get a date set when I can install them at the rear so the car is 'hellaflush'

While ago I've send an email to Kean Suspensions asking if they could make me an ultra low kit.


But since I'm going to move to my appartement in July I first need to check if my car can drive into the underground garage before going lower

Put a metal under plate on it and scrape like a boss is the garage big can i maybe try vroom vroom inside the garage

 

[singlespeed]

Getting beached is so uncool.

Remember the Top Gear trip and the underground car park in Paris :lol: imagine that every day

 

[MovingShadow]

I could follow Jarre's advice of installing a metal bodemplate instead of the plastic one.

Sparks flying from underneath he car, Fast & Furious style

Past weeekend we had a Twingo Meeting club in Holland. Consisting of a parking meet, the ability of test driving a Twizzy and a Zoe. Ending it with a rally cross-country drive (thank god my girlfriend was with us to read the directions). Me, Ghostz & Jarre had a ton of fun in getting lost in Holland

But after the drive I want more powaah.. Damn Twingo RS's are making it hard on me :mrgreen:

Small update:

On 12th of March I installed my ICE, thats also when I fractured the interior trim panel.

Today the garage called and said they have the part. Took them 3 months but I'm glad it's getting fixed (next week Tuesday).

 

[MovingShadow]

Spacers fitted on the rear.

1,5 cm each.

Really is an improvement and fills up the rear arches nicely.

 

[Sw4ns]

I really think spacers work wonders on a car, and yours is no exception! Looking good bud.
