I was tired of the old wimpy factory horn so I bought some air horns :D The install took about a 2 hours most of that was spent on trying to find a place to mount the trumpets, compressor and the relay. I mounted the compressor and the relay behind the radiator support and the trumpets behind the grill.

I still have to finish hiding the wires.

lol i hate air horns, they sound just as bad as stock horn, just amplified. I hate my horn, but at least its quiet. Your horn juss sounds wierd.

I remember S14Guy has some, they are loud as hell, but sound too high pitched.

Now if you can make it play "La Kooka Racha" (My spelling sucks, just sound it out) that would be the sh*t

Well not everything has to be performance or looks, I changed it because im surrounded by dumbasses who should'nt be on the road. In person it sounds better than the clip I posted. I think it's 100 times better than a wimpy stock horn.

I just put some of the same ones on my 240, I mounted them further underhood though, they say not to let them be exposed to water.

They are really high pitched but really loud. And since my stock horn is broken, my car won't pass inspection (and I hate not being able to honk at all the idiots in the world).
So I bought some fiamm horns for like 15 bucks at the nissan dealership in Ukraine and I mounted them yesterday. So loud they make my ears ring. Mission accomplished.

A loud horn won't always solve your problems, it might create more. If you go up to someone and go boo! they will jump or sumin. So if some car comes by and a loud as horn sounds they just might jump and swerve the steering wheel, which could only casue problems.

But a fish could also land on your hood while your driving. So anything is possible.
