    Can anyone recommend a good car audio installation shop? one that might actually build custom cables and not just use box kits?

    I need a few feet of 4awg or thicker and some good copper terminals for my aux fuse box and everywhere I went back in LA only sold the 20+' premade kits.

    Thanks.

    Might be cheaper to just make your own. Cable and what ever connectors you need.

    I went to Elite Audio Customs on S Decatur Blv to get my truck stereo done. They did an awesome job on it.

    Also possible. I just need to find someone who will sell me wire that thick but that short a length. Everywhere wanted to sell me spools.

    I will give them a look/call. Thanks!

    Do you have the terminals and the crimp tool as well? If so I could just swing by the shop.

    Right now my total load is less than 30 amps for my whole lighting/race radio so 4 gauge should work. I love LEDs.

    Ok so you guys seem to know people around here. I know this is not my taco but the 2001 altima that I use just to go to work and stuff. First weak engine I know but when press on the gas, if I do it hard to go fast quick, the rpms go up to 5 to 7 thousand but I dont accelerate. I have to let go of the pedal and press it slow. the car just had the clutch repaired (brand new one). So i am still wondering what else could be, the transmition? or the engine? I know some of you guys could check it out if possible. Obviously I would like to have the cheapest option to fix it. If needed, does anyone know a good reliable cheap shop to take it where they wont try to rape me? Mind you they can say the car has aids and I will believe them, as some of you guys know I really know nothing about car mechanics. Ideas? suggestions (Derek already told me to get rid of it). The car is really not mine is my parentals so I cant get rid of it. Also it has 189000 miles already.

    They had the clutch (Pedal) replaced. Yes is still doing it. My father said something about another clutch (the actual part that clicks the gears i guess) that might be it. However I dont know if that is what it is, and if it means I need to replace or rebuild the whole transmition.
