Just gonna post pics of my install.
My system is going to consist of old school components.

1. Headunit - Alpine 7909 cd
2. Sub - Single Kicker s10c solobaric sub in 0.66 cu ft sealed box
3. Fronts - Kicker 6.5" R6 resolution mids with nd25a tweeters
4. Amplifier - ESX Quantum Q120.4 4 channel (Zed built)
5. Sound deadening the doors.
6. Building 1/2" speaker baffles for mids.
7. Installing 170 amp HO alternator

I will be updating the thread as my components arrive.
So far I have installed the Alpine 7909 cd and built my box for my sub.

The car 1990 Civic Si hatchback

Got a box made for my kicker s10c solobaric sub 0.66 cu ft
It's got a 1" MDF front panel while the rest is 3/4" MDF.
Im going to feed it about 360 watts RMS.

My Alpine 7909 cd player.

Where are you guys finding these ESX amps?

 

[capnxtreme]

I love those cars!! Looks like a very clean one. That Alpine looks PERFECT in there.

The equipment goes with the car sooooo well. That solo is going to move some air in that car

Where did you ever find such a clean/unabused civic like that? One of my all time favorites.

[circa40]

Your 90 Civic Si, brings back memories of the 91 Civic Si (teal) that I once owned in 94/95. I had small system installed Denon cd player, alpine active crossover, Soundstream MC245, ID horns, alpine 6.5" (doors), USD Audio 1060 10" subwoofer. I need to dig out pictures and scan them; so I can post them.

Awesome stuff. Those cars are in great shape. Really love the CRX. (Minus the tweets on the door) I had the previous body style CRX Si that someone stole my Audison VR amps out of. Thought they were nice and hidden in the storage compartment.

Is this car where the components will reside?

I like the 7909...old school for sure!

Yes the white civic..

Love the car Robb, love the throwback install. You need some gold outline lettered Kickers for a complete O/S feel.

You already know I love the 7909.

Question for you, where exactly do you plan to fit these 10 inch midbass drivers. I had the same car, a 1990 sedan, and I cant seem to visualize where you could possibly be putting those 10's.

 

[Robb]

More kicker stuff I just bought. All brand new in box !
Should arrive within 2 weeks.

Kicker R6 mids

Kicker nd25a Tweeters

Kicker Resolution 18db 2 way Crossovers

All that's left to buy is my ESX Q120.4 amp. Then the install begins.

 

[beerdrnkr]

Man, what a nice setup. Can't wait to see the final results. I'm doing a semi old school build as well.

 

[tintbox]

Nice. I still miss my 89 CRX. Nice
