Omega General Help / Need a little diagnosis - engine temp

« on: 23 June 2010, 23:55:53 »

hi all need to know id this is a problem my omega has been running quite hot recently now i know the weather is alot hotter this is what happens

when i first start up about 5 mins in to my journey the car starts to warm up reaches 90 on the gauge then drops down  shortly after id assume the stat opens up ?

now when driving along the temperature sits between 90 and the next mark 92? when pulling of the motorway within about a minute or 2 its at fan kicking in temperature the same also happens if a car is on front of me its seems the temperature will only drop down when cruising along not working the engine

no coolant has been lost could there be a blockage ?

Omega Gallery / Lozzys Omega- The Sentinal Sound System Build

« on: 13 April 2010, 21:19:30 »

hi guys well after owning my omega for about 8 months now im finally starting to build my system up in my CD estate

now i know a lot of you will be saying why? well let explain a bit about me im a car audio enthusiast i love music and very passionate about it i do a little bit of mixing here and there.

there are three types of car sound system SQ SQL and SPL

SQ is were you are trying to replicate how the music was produced in the studio and to achieve a flat frequency responce

SQL this is my sort of system it has a little bit of sound quality but thats not the main focus its the L part which stands for Loud :d this sort of system is the ones that have the gut wrenching bass 

SPL this systems are often modified beyond road use were talking bullet proof glass miles of cables concrete steel are all part of construction the main focus on this sort of system is to score the highest decibel reading possible this is done at the cars peak frequency and generally wouldn't play music 

there's a little basics for you

so what do i have in store for this poor omega

well the aim of this car is be able to play most music at an obscene level across a wide range of frequency's and still be drivable.
