:dj: Hi guys i was justwondering what you like to listen to.
do you like a huge pumping sterio or... a huge pumping motor with a noisy exhaust?

i prefer the motor but occasionly i like my sterio.

Depends where I am, highway stereo but usually the engine note wins out around town.

yes i agree i love listening to the radio/cd when im on the open road but the exhaust turns heads in the street.

XR8GRL · 23-09-2006, 05:32 PM

Depends, alot of the time I like listening to the grunt, especially in the pursuit. Other times I'll listen to some music.

by the way how come my sig dosnt show after the first post???

Ruger · 23-09-2006, 05:33 PM

i had a big loud stereo but got over that after i got my Ps realised when i started driving the car it was a **** stupid and brought the wrong attention. stereo is decent quality now but not fully sick.

Engine noises impresse me ! Ill turn around for a solid cammed clevo but not a sick civic with 15 subs

At the moment i choose my stereo. My exhaust sounds like a taxi crosed with a banshee currenty (untill next week when i get the 3" on).

I spent around $3,000 on the stereo so i like to use it (plus i love music) but when i get my exhaust it will probably change hehe.

good topic!
In my AU i have a big stereo.. but it only seems to play techno as of late ( little bro drives it now.).
In my BA, even though its got premium sound i NEVER listen to the radio or play CD's in it since i love the sound of my big V8 rumbling and screaming when i give it a boot full.. nothing compares!

thats true nobody likes a person in a car park trying to break windows with the sterio. its a different case if you use the exhaust lol.

If im tierd its the engine. If im being a hoon. Engine. If im cruizin. Radio.

Ryan · 23-09-2006, 08:33 PM

I usually listen to the exhaust. (Yeah I know RB30s arent the greatest sounding engine, but meh)

I have a big sterio, but I don't listen to it.

I'm not really into sterios and stuff now, like when I was younger.

Nothing wrong with RB30`s. If you get the right exhaust and make it round throaty there great to listen to. Most people just get those ones that go BBBBBBBBLLLLLLLLLUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRR

I think that its missing a few cylinders, then maybe it might sound the goods. It is a very good engine, it just doesnt sound the best IMO.

Nah mate, I'm mainly talking about the N/A ones, which mine is.

Although, backed by a 5 Speed, they do sound better then the Autos, that go URRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR .

xr8ted: Yeah I think it is missing 2 cylinders. lol

Can't beat the sound of a healthy V8.

RavenLS1 · 24-09-2006, 11:37 AM

i listen to 3aw

TEaaron · 24-09-2006, 03:16 PM

For the highway I choose my stero for the streets I choose my exhsaust.

uranium_death · 24-09-2006, 03:43 PM

When you've got stock sound system (real lack of power) and an Ecotec V6, the choice is easy.

Silence!

I'll bide my time and go for an 8 in the future once I can afford one.

70caprigt3k · 24-09-2006, 03:47 PM

At the moment i like music because it sounds alot better the rattling catalytic converters but under different circumstances where the exhaust sounded good i would turn my music right down and listen to that but a supercharger would probably make me turn the stereo off all together.

Josh_XC · 24-09-2006, 04:54 PM

well i havent got a cd player in the XB so yeh the sound of an old school v8 does the job easily for me

capriv8 · 24-09-2006, 09:02 PM

Exhaust and gear drive is music to my ears, I have a stereo but have only turned it on to make sure it works, maybe if your parked a stereo would be okay.

ClassicAU · 24-09-2006, 09:07 PM

well, considering i have a stock exhaust system and a stereo system worth almost $3000, i will go with the music! :P

SVT8 · 24-09-2006, 09:26 PM

i always listen to the engine, but i do have the radio on very low. All i do is wind down my window and listen to grumble of an 8....... if its cold outside my window will only be slightly down

UNEZED · 24-09-2006, 09:42 PM

I love to cruise 2 musik but i used to have no option because my old exhaust was extractors, cat, then all 3inch pipe until the 4 inch chrome down pipe tip then pigs in chapel st got me epa was 120 dbs didnt sound the best just uncontroled loudness
