Hi everyone! Well I just recently registered here, but have been reading for a long time. First and foremost I would like to say this is one of the best forums on the net in terms of knowledge and helpfulness.

I just thought I would introduce myself. I saw that the Who's who thread was closed and could not find a better place to post this so let me know if this is the wrong place!

About me: My name is Chris. I'm a junior at San Francisco State University majoring in Mechanical Engineering. I work at Circuit City as a Product Specialist in the Roadshop (car stereo). I am pretty good at sales, but I can install too.

Here is I guess the most important part (since it is the focus of this site), my car. I do not have any recent pics because of the rain lately, but here is a mod list and a picture of my trunk.

Audio System

HU: Eclipse CD7000
Front Speakers: Infinity Kappa Perfect 6.1
Rear Speakers: Infinity Reference 6x9's
4-Channel: Eclipse XA4000
Subwoofer: Eclipse SW7000
Mono-Block: Eclipse XA1000
Connections: Monster Cable RCA's, Tsunami 1/0 gauge amp kit
Sound Deadening: Dynamat Extreme on outer door skins
Alarm: Python 881XP with window roll up/down & trunk pop

Tint: 35% front windows, 5% rear windows
Grillecraft 5-Piece Black grill kit
Helix Automotive crystal smoked front turn signals
Depo Crystal Rear reverse lights

Suspension

Tein S-Tech springs
Suspension Techniques Rear Sway bar
RRE Rear camber kit

Interior

Energy Suspension shifter bushings
Silver painted interior trim


Future Plans
Dynamat Extreme for trunk, hatch, under rear seat, inner door skins
Dynaxorb behind Kappa Perfect woofers
Red LED Dash lights
Dodge Stratus R/T gauge cluster (Black)
Fiberglass corner box for sub (currently have generic sealed box)
Carpeted Amp rack


Thanks for reading my rediculous long post! All work was done by myself with some help from the installers at work and my dad who is a Range Rover Master Tech. Any advice/questions/constructive criticsm is welcomed! I look forward to offering some help and getting help on here!

Thanks a lot! Yeah I'm pretty happy with how everything sounds right now. More dynamat and possibly another SW7000+XA1000 are on my mind right now.
