Hopfully this buildlog wont take long to finish, but who knows so bear with me and stay tuned. I hope you all like the thread! I had a blowthru in the truck for a long time and it served great but I decided to go bigger. Much bigger! Im building a 59.9 class dd streetbeater. BEFORES Just your avg everyday yellow single cab lowrider ....... with a blowthru lol 2 AA Mayhem 15's 2 Sundown Audio SAZ 3500's REBUILD - THE ROAD TO 159.9 THIS GLASS HAS TO GO! I WONT BE NEEDING IT ANYMORE. DONT NEED THIS EITHER DEFINITELY GOING TO NEED THIS I NEEDED TO BEEF UP THE SUSPENSION! THERES GOING TO BE A LOT OF WEIGHT IN HERE!

I was at a smaller show yesterday in Enid, oklahoma. I will announce the next show i go to.

yeah man, shoot yeah! I had to get the vid up cause im sure everyone was tired of waiting. lol. I was to, to be honest XD. Yeah im either going to buy a bunch of 3500s or i will wait on the NS1s, cant say. But im sure soon

Here you go everyone! Here is my first vid of the stereo playing. Its very underpowered obviously im getting very little cone movement but still its crazy loud!

Thanks bro, you have a really clean build! cudos, Id like to hear it some time. Thanks bud lol I know ive been doing lots of work on it lately, weather should be nice tomar warm out.... at least its supposed to be. But hopefully get some vids then

Thanks bro! I hope I do aswell, I really need it. Oh and pay no mind to the rca mess thats going on there, ive been tearing it out all morn and it was strung out when i took the pic. I have the new rca's hooked up and im about to do a startup to see how much more efficient my signal is.x2, electrical looks nice, just voted for you on smd Thanks bud I really appreciate it! I won 1st on there. Thanks to all who voted for me. I will be switching to 16v and will be using a bunch of the new Sundown NS1's. If anyone is interested in the 200.4s let me know, let are a monster of an amp and can be used on either mids and highs or on your subs. They are an amazing solid 3200+watt amp at 12vSUNDOWN NS1's!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes sir, lots more power!!!!

I am taking this opportunity to go outside and enjoy all 80 degrees lol ahhh yes so of course what do you think im doing on this nice day???????

i'm going off what travis and curt say. if i build really soon it will be sa15s until the x line comes out and i can afford to upgrade to them. like they said this way i can pound them daily and push them in the lanes, which is a good point i think.....also i think the x line should take it no problem and so do they. i dont know if my build will start until this winter. if i wait out this year it may be a little bigger then anyone can imagine. i have a goal and i always get my goals....sometimes it takes a little long but i will have a 163db min on music at the glass! just dont know when... I understand that , and your power output is going to vary on many things, but lets talk scenario. Say your reactive load is very controlled and yourr power plant allows for that kind of current draw. Say you get your full 20k to your subs. Of course your talking about 2500 watts per sub. I know Travis has a lot of faith in the SA subs. I do to!! The faith in the SA subs is very well earned and deserved! But like i said your really pushing the envelope with 2500watts on these subs daily on music. Im sure it can be done.....But ........for how long? I dont mean to discurage you at all, I think you have a great goal and i think that you can achieve it. You can start out on the SA's but i would most definitely go bigger when you can. Until then just be aware that you would be pushing near 5x's the rated power to these subs so be cautious. the x line definitely sounds like a subs for you, I actually am looking at that line myself to run. I am very excited to see your build take off if you have any questions or ever need any help with your system or Sundown product please dont hesitate to let me know.

I'm Tyler Fitterer from Bismarck, ND. I would really like for you to come up as no one up here really knows what Sundown is and I'm having a hard time getting it started as everyone is one minded here-if it doesnt say Kicker, JL, Alpine or Rockford it is sh!t. But also im looking into doing 8 SA15s in a vented clam but i have no idea where to start on it.....i just need something to run both of my warhorses on and something to make people go OMG!!!! And what better way then with entry level Sundown and 20k watts?? Like I said it would be a long hard drive up there from OKC, but I will have to see. I understand, some people are blinded by trends, but those companies have great marketing. thats why they have such a following. But myself aswell as others try to get people to stand back and take a look at the whole picture. 8 15s would be nasty, should deff get the job done. But as much power and abuse as the SA's will take, I think that you would be pushing the envelope putting 20k on 8 SA's on music. I would do Z's or NS's best place to start is to ask someone that knows.

Whats your name? Hes right you cant breathe when the low notes hit or the high notes! lol low notes just suck the breath out of you and the high notes grab your throat and choke you out. XD I guess you can say minor issues, more like just needs lots of tuning and tweeking. lol. As loud as it was at travis's shop.... it still had alot more in it. Mandan is a long way up there coming from Oklahoma City, Ok. But i wont rule it out as I am going to be doing a lot of driving all over the place so we will have to see. The shop I was in was Travis's shop in Iowa, those are customer subs waiting for recones i believe. I may be able to hook you up with something. PM me! lol I had 44 in the blowthru, I have much more in the walkthru Good! Hmm you still might be able to fit in 15s! You may have to shave the top and bottom walls but I bet you could do it!

Im not quite sure what you mean, but if you mean how much boot did i need for the blowthru I used 10-12 ft. If you mean how much area did i cut out for the blowthru, the actually cut was I believe 44w and 19 tall. If I am completely off on your question lol then ask me another way and ill do my best to answer Thank you, yeah i liked these pics especially the amp pics, they are monster amps and put out tons of power! Yes I am in the lead as of right now. I hope to stay in the lead so ..... To everyone if you have not voted for me on SMD please take a minute and go over to SMD system of the month and vote for me. I would greatly appreciate it.

Here are a couple pics of my shipment. Fedex guy freaked out about me taking a pic. lol but ohwell I got one anyway 12 Sundown Audio SA-15s and some big amp boxes!!! What could they be???? Big Beautiful 200.4s Look at those GUTS!!! O_O Building my HD leafsprings! This is what the leafs raised it up to. This is what the height used to be. Lol Benda couldnt resist, he had to crawl back there and check it out! XD

Thanks bud, I like how clean yours is, when i had my blow thru i wish it looked that clean. Good job tho for sure. Thank you I really appreciate it

Hey guys, don't forget if you really like this build. The best compliment you could give me would be to head over to smd forums and vote for me system of the month. Voting is now so hit it up. Thanks guys

Me to bud! Im really anxious about getting everything reinstalled and back up to speed!

I decided to go and buy a Trans cooler, I know this truck is not supposed to carry around this kind of weight. So heres to keeping to tranny cool!

Thanks bro, I like most dont like waiting for builds like this to get done so I speed it up as much as possible! You the man! I appreciate it! XD the vids will be coming, Im reinstalling everything on Mon. along with more amps and power. I also will be beefing up the leaf springs. I PUT THESE PICS ON GOODLE I believe the voting starts on the 21st. But not completely sure so check in every so often! Thank you! Yes we used many full sheets of MDF and a large # of 2/4's They are "medium" lol. They are designed to mount ignition boxes in the engine bay to isolate from vibration. I have seen some that are softer, but the way it is mounted in my application I couldn't use them.They also make some that are silicone filled, they are super soft but not near as cheap. Im going to look into these because they sound like something that would be just right for this app. Thanks for the idea bud.

Thanks man I appreciate it alot. All gear is still pulled out, but everything will be reinstalled mon, with more power. Like posted earlier we did initial testing with 2 3500s, now we are going to up it a little bit to about 11k rms, and test there. Vids for sure so stay tuned And for everyone that likes this build , the best compliment you can give me right now would be to go over to SMD and vote for me Valhalla for SOTM. I still run a stock alt and could really use a HO alt. which is the prize for the winner. So vote for me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Yes. I use those for several things. I bought these to mount my fuel pump on the supra. The pump I have is huge and sounds like a chainsaw. If you mount it directly to the plate it vibrates the whole car and is loud as hell. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ACC-49012 How soft/hard are those rubber bushings?

Yeah its annoying lol XD I guess I asked for it tho. lol Yeah, nature of the beast, at least it's a good thing LOL its a very good thing Hopefully your center console housing will stop it from shutting off. I know there's these bolts that have rubber in the center, so what ever you screw it down to, the vibration is some what isolated. May help... I'll have to look on Mccar master or something to find'm Or you could take out a few drivers and ship'm my way, whichever way works best for you. XD I dont know about taking out any drivers but the shock bolts sound like a good idea!

Yeah its annoying lol XD I guess I asked for it tho. lol Yeah, nature of the beast, at least it's a good thing LOL its a very good thing

Yeah its annoying lol XD I guess I asked for it tho. lol

I was having a lot of problems with the vibration at the headunit. The HU kept shutting off at about mid volume, I could never turn it up. So I have set out to build a console for the HU to set on my tranny hump! Still rough, needs to be glassed and painted, and im probly going to add a couple neat little things to it but heres the general idea lol. It works great so far!
