Default Need some system advice

Hey i just need some system advice, i am looking to put in a sub or subs, amp, and 4 new speakers. I have a 2002 Honda Civic Sedan so I know that will determine what I can put in the car. I already have an idea of what I am getting but if you could please lend some advice that would be great. Here's the list:
For the Amp: Rockford Fosgate P1000-1bd OR Rockford Fosgate P600.1bd
For the Sub or subs havn't decided yet: 12" JBL Power Series P1222
For the 4 Speakers: 6.5" JBL Power Series P652

So if you have any suggestions please let me know, and also do you think I will need a capacitor? Thank You

I'm thinking of putting in the Pioneer 6800MP i have it in my dads car so I might take that back from him, or I can get a deal on the new JVC KD-BT1 with bluetooth, but I don't know any reviews on it though.

One thing ive found with pioneers, my buddy spent 400 on the 7700, and then when we wanted to use an ipod you gotta buy another 30.00 adapter. Cant just use aux in. Im always aware of that when people ask be about pioneer. May be diff on the the 6800 but id check if u plan to use an mp3 player

Just mount the rears and the subs in the dash! Thatll mean the soundstage will actually BE in the front and centre! That will make the car sound awsome!
Note: Sarcastic tone implied.

Your an idiot. Get in almost any car and fade the speakers all teh way to the front, you can barley tell a difference. Unless of course you upgraded and have more power going to your rear. And sub frequencies aren't directional but mid and high frequencies are, thus why you only have a front stage. When your at a concert all the speakers are in front of you, gee I wonder why.
