ryan..

you will need to remove the headunit and try to follow the earth cable. This will be black or brown

that is normaly a sign of a poor earth in an aftermarket setup. Maybe an idea to re do the earth for the headunit

ive just fitted Falken 914's to my octavia. Good tyres in all weather, they do slip a bit when flooring it but they are trying to cope with 260ft/lb torque lol Uniroyal Rainsport 2's are very good vfm and great all rounders. Avon dont make the ZV range anymore so if you find any they will be old stock. Ive got ZV5's on my works van and they are ok, not as good as the Bridgestones which were on there out the factory though

they are also usless. I tried them with hid bulbs in them and they were usless

they should be yea.

give it a go, i bet there are load of people who would want to see how it comes out

you need to use the correct keys for the headunit

If you ran 2 gt4's youd have 750wrms to give them as the amp will be run at 2ohm rather than 4ohm If you ran a set of components with your amp bridged rather than with 6x9s behind you it will sound so much better

if you want a different sound change the box first before changing amps/subs etc You are giving your 250wrms sub 500wrms so dont be silly with the gain and the volume control on your headunit. Your 4 channel amp does 4x60wrms so look for 60wrms speakers OR (and this would be my choise) ditch the 6x9 and bridge the amp so you have about 2x200wrms

which jbl amp is it? If you are on a budget the low end Hertz kit is good and very well rated. The effort involved in making a baffle to fit 6.5" speakers is very little. You can get the wood cheap too by going to the cutting saw at B&Q and buying off cuts for pence.

it will take about 20 minutes of fabrication to fit 6.5" speakers in the doors so very little effort. The oem speakers are 6" in a plastic baffle so you'd need to buy a plastic baffle (not recommended as they are rubbish) Tweeter size. I fitted 1" CDT tweeters. This is the component kit I had in my old VTI-S http://www.cdtaudio.com/main_series/hd/hd62.htm The oem tweeter is held in place using a bit of brass which is screwed in. Any tweeter of upto 1" will fit with no modification

there is a cheap part which you could try. The fuel pump relay. Its on the drivers side in the dash, pretty easy to get to once you get in the footwell. If this is on its way out it could cause the fuel pump to stop working and no fuel = engine cuts out

first things first. Check the settings that its not set to mute someware. then take the headunit out and check the conditions of the cables. You will have red, yellow, and a few others which are the power. There will also be a bunch of coloured cables which are speaker cables which you can check to make sure they are connected. It sounds like the problem is at the headunit end as its very unlikely all the speakers are unplugged

EJ9 if its a 3dr 1.4 from 1995-2001

2000 special edition? Nice looker though. only thing "special" is the exhaust which doesnt fit
