The tacoma guy on your team is the only one that I know of that has (had) some. I would love to get a few myself, but they are going to be a b*tch to find some. Good luck.
-
Please remember, just because the DD-1 says you can turn it up that high without distortion doesn't mean that the subs can take that full power (just saying in general, and not particularly your setup).
-
Now the question is, which one do you like more? Granted I know the LFA is more, but could you drive that as a daily?
-
considering that they haven't or will not produce a n1 so that limits your choices. n2 for you is the way to go

Well able to get some more progress done on one of the kick pods today. Yes its taking me forever to do them, but I rather take my time and do them properly (what I think is properly). While working on them the sky was awesome.
well now off to the pictures of the pod
Glassed the pegs in so they wouldn't move while I was stretching the fleece over pods.
yes I know there is wrinkles but not as bad as I was thinking there would be. Found out later from Superjay that if I would have pulled the fleece harder I wouldn't have any wrinkles. But with the few that are there I'm satisfied right now.
Now the speaker is in the pod itself. Cut the baffle to fit the outer dimensions of the speaker perfectly.
Comments appreciated like I said earlier.

I thought new kick panels for your car were cheap...?
They are, but I really can't spend the money for them right now. Got bills coming up here shortly. But i do get paid on friday so I might be able to afford them then. Shall see

Got ourselves a bunch of jokesters in here. lol. Well I tried calling ya, but wont go through for some reason.
i wanna see how you are gonna make the hood release accesible
My thoughts exactly, because my friend has a Jetta too.
I have an idea, should find out how I'm going to do it here with in the week. Taking my time with these (and with money permitting)
-
Well laying down some more resin and mat on the base plates. Want to make them a little bit stronger before I make the speaker rings and wrap them up.
-
Lol, can't believe I missed that word.
-
damn corona getting warm taking all those pics next to it.
good start
If you notice it was still cold taking them pics. Lets just say, it was full for very long after wards. Got to keep my title going.
-
Well the bases are done going to let them cure for a few more days before I put some chop mat down on them. In the mean time, here are some pics of the finished bases and how the mids should be mounting on them.
The mids:
Peerless 8's
here are the bases
And an Idea of how the mids are going to mount on the bases
Drivers side
One of the passenger side
Tell me what you think so far. Plan is to eventually run 1 sundown 125.2 per mid
comments appreiciated

Looks like I need to get loud here quick.

Had a build on here before, but deciding to start fresh on a new log. Going 3 way active with the cda 9887 (trading my double din alpine for it), using a sundown 3000 on the sub stage (either btl's or Q's from Fi). Using also a sundown 125.2 for the mids, and a sundown 100.2 on the planars. For mids I am using some peerless 8's, and using Bohlender neo8 planar tweeters. Enough talking now ontop so pics.
Got the passenger side started yesterday, but have no pics of the process. But do have some of the drivers side
Here is the stock Drivers side kick
Taped it all up in blue painters tape
Next covered it up in aluminum foil
Then reinstalled the piece and put more aluminum foil down on top of the carpet and some brown painters paper on the edge
Dont want to get any resin on the carpet.
Mixed up some resin in small cups. Filled them up half way and put in hardener when I was ready to use that specific cup. Note, make sure you wear gloves on this part of the job, you will thankful that you did.
Yes I know its not the greatest resin in the world, but it will do.
Next I started to lay the fiberglass down. Using a 8sq foot pack of woven mat for the base right now. Cut that up into manageable pieces.
For the first layer I laid down a base of resin then laid the fiberglass on top of that and put more resin on the top so it soaked all the way through.
All three cups used so far, and a few more piece of glass to go. Using a halogen lamp right now to keep the area warm since its night out here now.
that is about 3 layers of glass in the corners and a 2 layers on the outer edges so far. Went out 3 or 4 inches farther than I have to. Easier to cut away then add on later.

Still keeping it all in trunk?
-
You might want to hit up apple jack in the for sale area. He has DAT 2500.1's that do well over 3k at 1 ohm. I know DAT had a bad rep here, but these ones that he has are the proto type ones. The ones that dont catch fire. If I didnt have my amps already I would buy those ones in a heart beat.
-
I broke my windshield when I a BTL 18 in the trunk of my jetta. But that was due to the review mirror though. Started moving and cracked the glass. Dont know if you can even count that though.
-
I haz big brain
Might have a big brain, but has a small Pee Pee. Got to make up for it somehow....
-
I think he was talking about the 10% off if you order 10 or more tweeters.
-
It wasn't sitting there the whole time. Was there for a good portion of it though. At about the 20 second mark you can see that it came from the guy wearing the pants. Funny stuff.
-
uh 2 4 inch ports is like a 6 inch port not a 8 inch one. 2 6inch ports are equivalent to a single 8.
-
Had a great time at the show, except for the chugging the 40 part. I think I could have gotten it if it wasn't such a 'heavy' beer and if it wasnt so freaking cold also. Second it hit my stomach it went into a spasm and wanted to eject all of the liquid that I had just drank. Oh well, maybe I'll try it again.

POWERSTROKE POWER!!!!!
Nothing like cummin or strokin. Om nom nom.
As long as your getting the load right?
lol jk. You left it out there. Girl was hot, but funny as hell
-
Hey same I will be there. I'll have this with me also:
-
Im going to say too much power. The DD1 is nice to see where your distortion is at on the amp gain. Just because you can turn it up that far without distortion doesnt mean you should keep it there when you hook the sub back up.
