Hey Man..! Really nice CRX and System man...nice photos and videos too..! MR2

Portland Oregon... Hey, only a state away! haha you should come up to kent, WA on sept. 4th for Import Alliance(just googled it...they have a sound off too=)! If I'm not busy that sounds like it would be a good drive up. I just heard that they had a Lowrider show in Kent and some ppl got hurt or shot or somethin'...that's kinda scary...! MR2 Wow, didn't hear about that. Doesn't surprise me though. Tacoma/Kent/Tukwila area is bad about that kind of stuff.. Ya heard it on local news last night...I use to roll a lowrider on switches etc. Of course I had a system in it too which was really tricky to fit it all in the trunk of my honda import...those were to crazy days...I had to keep tools in my car in case anything went wrong...it was like having a show car for a daily d...I wouldn't roll a car with hydros on a daily d anymore(anyway that way many many years ago)... Btw checked out your whole build and a bunch of your youtube videos...is that your dad helping you..?! That is cool if he is...mine is helping me too...pretty cool..! MR2

Hahaha...ya when I went over to AU my buddy was like ya throw that in the boot..."HUH"...lol...! MR2

Decided to go with Carpet. I got a chip in one corner which would be covered up with carpet. Also I used plywood instead of mdf in case it ever gets wet it'll hold up better(not too mention it's lighter too! Just finished the sanding and painted all the edges and the weaks spots even though I'll cover them up I like the job done right..! =) Here's a pic of carpet: MR2

Portland Oregon...

Lol...Frunk...ya pretty funny sounding...but hey when I was over in Australia they call their trunk boot...so it's all good...! =) So I agree...I'm going to definitely carpet it...thanks for the feedback... Just sanding the edges round now, then recoat, then once it's dry I'll spray glue the carpet down. It's really warm(not for the NW so it should have no issues drying fast)..! MR2

Ok I'm going to go check out my amp board paint job I did. I did another coat super late last night. I noticed some weaker spots...so hopefully it's good to go. Debating if I should leave it black or glue down some carpet..?! That's probably the next step. Watcha all think...?! Here's what it looks like now(looks like I got a better coat on the back-it was late and dark outside so I thought I put a heavier coat on the front...guess that doesn't matter if I carpet it in black)... It needs some sanding on edges still(which I forgot to do before painting)so I think I'll do that and hit it with another coat. If I do that now it should be dry to touch by noon... MR2

This is definitely taking a lot longer than any system I've ever build but I'm taking my time. So I think it will turn out well...?! Thanks for checking out my build log and the responses. Keeps things motivated...it's been a lot of work so far...I haven't built a system in years...but it's something I miss...it's fun to be building one again..! MR2

Ok...one more coat...now I chillax(sorry my palm pre takes less than stellar pics...especially in low light)... More updates tomorrow...! MR2

Ok Ya'll...that's it for tonight...gunna chillax 2 the tube...I'll be back on it tomorrow...! Can't Wait...!!! Thx 4 checkin' out my build log... MR2

Test fitting the Zed Audio Draconia II: MBQuart X overs: Lastly I paint the amp board(but I forgot I need to sand down the edges-will do tomorrow and respray): MR2

We begin cutting the Amp Board: As we fit the board we find more tweaks needed to get the perfect fit(we use a pencil to mark out the cuts needed): I help out by standing on the board while Pops does the finish work: Here is what it looks like in the Frunk: We add the hold down bolt(the same one that hold the spare tire): MR2

The Amp Rack... First we take a piece of matte board to draw a template so we can create a shape that fits into the Frunk(Front Trunk): We slowly cut the matte board till we get the right fit: MR2

Here's an aerial view of the interior... Removing the center panel to run the sub wire(sorry if the pics are upside down-tried to reupload several times)...

Here is the interior as I map out the path for wire runs... ...and yes I will be treating rust...this car came from back east originally... MR2

If your just tuning in I am building a system in a 1991 Toyota MR2. Pictures to follow will show you the recent progress... MR2

I will be posting pictures of progress in the next 10 minutes... MR2

...and waiting! Hey guys...they are coming...just about to call it a day...wooped once again...but they are coming soon...! I have to paint the amp board still then I'll post... MR2

Tons more work done...including amp rack basically built which was a bit tricky to get a perfect fit..! Really pleased with the install so far...my best one yet..! Pics comin' later tonight..! MR2

I might use it for the dvd...

Bring on the amp rack!! It'll be mounted up front by the battery?? Yes it will be...only challenge I have at the moment is the spare tire is missing. I am trying to locate one today so I can finish the amp rack. Without it can't judge the proper size...Hope I find one...I'm so close to finishing the install..! MR2

Ok back from the Depot & Ace...picked up a few more items for the Amp Board and in line fuse holder plus a switch... MR2

Yes I think so too...thanks..! MR2

Only because I already owned the Quarts and they are separates. The JBL look like great speakers...so that is why...
