try HSV behind lamcy plaza, they have a alot of fosgate stuff there. the new alpine amps are pretty good, so if you are getting them cheaper then the fosgates go for them

from the looks of it i think you got it planned out very well. the Type-r is a very nice woofer and i am sure you cant go wrong by choosing it. Just make sure whoever makes ur enlcosure (box) does a very good job, otherwise you could ask neo to help you out on that.
your choice for the amp is spot on and the only other ones i could recommend are the fosgates, or JL ones but for the price you are getting yours it seems very reasonable.

i dont no the exact location of HSV, but its behind lamcy plaza.

the fosgate p3 you pointed out is a nice woofer, BUT not the best. I would take the type-r over the fosgate p3 any day IF they are in the same price range that is.
I was running two P2D212 woofers on a fosgate p600 amp which was MORE THEN ENOUGH to make my eye balls and the hair in my nose vibrate :P ....
Your choice in amp is spot on, i guess it would be safe to say if you went with the P3 and the alpine amp you would have a sick system as long as you have the supporting stuff with it!!! btw i forgot to ask is this going in a sedan or SUV??? make sure you get proper cabling (monster is good) and a decent capcitor (you might not need it, but its good to have a small 2farad cap installed) and a proper box. You could get all this from HSV, trust me talk directly to the lady there and she will give you good discount, dont get anything installed from them. they might even have a orginal fosgate box for your woofer bcoz i remember they had one for mine. last but not least if you do plan on getting a cap then dont buy it from them...go to the souq area and find urself a simple tsunami 2farad cap which should work just fine.
Your total investment with installation shouldnt be more then 4000aed MAX and that would be pushing it.

Good luck

RF P3 is for 250$ i.e 900+ must be like 1200 here ! and TypeR is 679 dhs in sharaf DG 12 inch ! both have 500 watts rms ! so which one should i go for ? and this stuff will go on in my yaris sedan in pakistan ! cant go for enclosure as they will be heavy to carry ! how much a 2 farad capacitor cost ?

go for the type-r if your getting it for cheaper, either way they are pretty much the same price. i hope you will be able to get a decent enclosure made in pak for this woofer. If i remember correctly the capacitor shouldn't cost you more then 250aed (tsunami brand).
btw if your from karachi drop down at bbq delight, its in the same plaza as HSV. it a franchise from bbq tonight in karachi. tell the counter guy ur zeeshan's friend and you should eat for free :P ...

enjoy and good luck

you can get MTX at HSV but i dont think they have JL.....
if you could get your hands on JL then i would say forget everything and just grab those instead.
I hope i am not making you confused :P ..lool
