>.< Im sad now.

Hey guys, I know iv posted so many topics about my box but its time for another one. I WAS going rebuild my box for my 18" BTL N2, and make it closer to 7.5 cuft net. Iv been thinking about future upgrades though, and im thinking in the end of it all ill be powering my BTL off of two AB VFL 100.1's strapped (3000wrms). Now with that much power to my subwoofer, would 7.5cuft be a little too big? Iv been talking to one or two people about it and they said it might be a better idea to keep it around 5.5-6 cuft with that much power running to it.

Tuned to 32hz and getting louder on the meter wouldnt be a bad thing... But im not going to be going to tons of competitions, i just like a loud daily driver and i enjoy demoing.

Oh lord. Fun times.

Alright, well i can fit a 7.5 cuft box in my trunk, and they only reason i was thinking about running 3000 wrms is because i already have an AB 100.1, so it would only be like another 200 bucks and i can strap 2 of them together. Right now iv got a 5.5cuft box with ~16 square inches of port per cube. Idk, just shooting ideas.

Get another T1500 and slam a 15" BTL N3 in there.

Alright guys, im in college for Mechanic Apprenticeship and one of my courses next semester is Electrical Accessories, Guess what we get to build! A sub box, Considering i already have a daily box for my BTL 18, i was considering building something for pure SPL if i ever want to try out a competiton.. Anyways, i was just curious from your experiences what platform is the best for pure spl builds, just a basic slot port, 4th order, 6th order ect. (This will be in the trunk so no walls.) Once i get some information about this ill sit down and see what i can come up with.

I dont think youll be breaking anything in your car with a single 15.

Happy Birthday?

Man those sealed parts of that 4th order are so tiny, the sub hardly fits ^^. Must have sounded awesome, and looks super clean, Congrats on the win

Sure picture would be cool. Thanks for helping out

How do you actually design a removeable back that will seal properly? That seems a little confusing to me

Well see Notorious thats what ill be building, sadly my seat dont fold, BUT, im going to make it with my sub firing up, and port going up, through the rear deck of my car and make it basically the exact same as firing it directly into the cabin.

Hello Guys, I dont have any real pictures yet, but iv decided to get a little hype going for my first ever build. So heres what is going to be happening. Iv got a 2004 Impala, Currently with a set of Infinity 5.25 Reference components and Pioneer 6x9 coaxials in the back, powered by a PG Ti 500.4.. I had 2 Alpine Type X 10" and sold them. Now what will be happening with my current setup is as follows -Removing rear 6x9's to make room for my box in the trunk. -Replacing Infinity's with Bravox CS50k's -Keeping PG Ti 500.4 to power Bravox's -American Bass VLF 100.1 to power the subwoofer -18" Fi BTL N2 in the trunk, tuned to 32hz. Ill be building a box out of cardboard to make sure it will slide in nicely before i actually build the full thing. Pictures coming soon of my sub and amp, Ill also be posting the process of building my box (Be easy on me its my first time!)

GMC you sound like a dumb little fuck.. Honestly? Your telling me people who put preformance parts onto a civic are also retarded because a Civic isnt a performace car? And i guess according to you EVERY SUV wall out there is also retarded because the main purpose of an SUV is for passanger transportation and big cargo space? Am i wrong?

Well, i think im going to be wrapping my interior in black vinyl, and replacing some of the trim pieces with a polished silver type look. Anyways i was just wondering a good website that id be able to buy some Vinyl that isnt insanely expensive.

Yeah well i got it in and noticed its TOO small.. Poor me, Ill be building a new one fairly soon, lots more net volume.

Future upgrades will have a mechman, probably a 3rd batt and maybe something like a BC5500.. not sure..

BanginGMC, way to be a dick for no reason.

Ok i guess reflex it is then. The only sad part is that i have no time to do the best possible thing for spl which is test and fix, test and fix, ect. Just thought id try something i could actually use since i need to build one anways.

Alright, so iv been looking at the inside of my car lately and it makes me a bit sad. My car is black on the outside, with a 2 tone grey interior and wood trim pieces. What i was thinking is to get a bit creative and change up the looks of my interior. I wont be upholstering or anything, i was just thinking about taking off some of the pieces and painting them black... Not sure yet... Give me your opinion if youve ever done something like this. Heres a few pictures so you can see what im working with.

Flock.... Hm... Idk what that is. Plus, the main reason im thinking of doing all this to my car is it only has 83k (km not miles) on it. If i treat it well it can last me around 10 more years. Thats a long time, might as well make something of it.

SEM dye doesnt cost much at all...

Alright awesome stuff. We will see what happens, A 6th ordder will be super interesting with my sub needing to face up...
