Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Need suggestions for brake pads please.

    I did my research in various GXP forums, and settled on ACDelco pads that run about $45 a pair. Here is an example of some at this link http://www.brakepadwholesale.com/sea...rce=GOOGLEBASE.

    Problem with cylinder 1 spark plug.. keeps going bad!

    My first problem was a rough idle, got the cylinder 1 misfire code from Autozone, did my research here, and replaced the spark plug. The problem was solved. Then, less than a year later, I had the same problem, and solved it by replacing the plug again! Why does this keep happening? I've...

    Oil change through the dipstick?

    I've never heard of the dip stick oil change method, so I need some opinions please. I discovered it today through the deal HERE on a device that does it. If the deal is dead by the time you see this, there is another one HERE for reference. I then found a basic how-to on the process HERE...

    How do I replace stock speaker wire?

    Monsoon amp to power a 600w sub. Bad idea?

    I got my hands on a Directed Electronics 3108 sub. It's a 4-ohm, dual voice coil, 600w model. I'm getting a new amp and speakers installed today, but was wondering if I could use the Monsoon amp to power that sub? It seems like I could since the Monsoon is 2-ohm, but I'm not sure if it's even...

    Can I replace the Monsoon speakers?

    I want to keep my factory headunit, and simply replace the Monsoon speakers. I have the 9-speaker system in a GP GXP. I know everyone will say to get a new HU, and a new amplifier. However, does anyone have experience with this? I've been doing some research, and Infinity makes some 2-ohm...
