Can you get the temp meters in celcius too?

i have a suzuki hatch too... you should put your sub in a wooden box, will go so much harder...

www.mobileelectronics.com.au is the biggest australian car audio forum, head over there for some cool builds! the team lolz laser thats linked above is one of the bigger builds out here at the moment, but there plenty of other stuff goin on too my van with 4 15"s and 16x 6.5"s, my mates wagon with 4x 18"s in the back, Lunchbox.inc (on here) with the charade with 6x 15s bassraces mid 150s, plenty of people gettin loud in aus! also lots of crazy SQ build goin on too

mmm shiny...

id do it, but thats coz i already have 2 other xboxes lol...

i remember a while ago sitting in my mates car that did a 146, i had to block my ears and it still hurt like crazy... now my car does 148 and it doesnt even bother me, everytime i have someone else in the car though it reminds me how loud it actually is the problem is im the loudest one in my area so i cant just sit in someone elses car to get my fix another problem is when i go clubbing these days i get heaps dissapointed coz the club doesnt sound as good as my car lol... it sucks

haha yeah i saw that too... hell keen for cookies right now

looks good what size/tuning is the box? im trying to figure out what box to make for my new RE MT 18

whoa dude holy shit how have i not seen this before?! did you ever get it metered? was it 8 fusion 12"s? any pics of the front of the box once it was in the car? nice work!

pics of what you have so far?

no "Q" is how wide the peak is on either side of the bass boost frequency, if you set it to say boost 40hz with a high Q it will boost the frequencys arouns 40 aswell (maybe down to 35 and up to 45) with a lower Q it only boosts closer to the frequency (maybe 39 to 41) also at DWZ if you set the HPF on you amp and headunit to the same frequency they will add together so if you have say a 12db slope on each the speaker will see a 24db slope (not sure on the exact numbers but something like this), most times if you set the HPF on your head unit either turn it off or turn it right down on the amp so the frequency you set on the head unit is actually what the speaker sees to the OP, a bigger box could sound better/louder, but also a stronger box... how strong are your boxes? do any of the panels of the box flex even slightly? when i braced my old dual 12" box to stop it flexing a little it got wayyyy louder and sounded way cleaner

good to see another aussie on here one of my mates has one of these so im keen to see what you do with this...

awesome work as usuall steve, just one thing i noticed: why did you cut all the rings so far apart on the mdf? theres a hell of a lot of wasteage between those rings... im currently doing my doors so im keen to see how you finish these off

damn that is awesome of RF to do that for you new pods look and sound great!

they seem to be workin too... 8 User(s) are reading this topic (6 Guests and 0 Anonymous Users) ^^^meade 5 User(s) are reading this topic (3 Guests and 0 Anonymous Users) ^^^98hoe keep them turbos crankin steve not long to go now!

"...just because your gonna cover it all up doesnt mean nobodys gonna see it ever, might as well do it right the first time..." haha i loled... keep up the awesome work man you got some crazy wire management skillz right there

and so the rebuild begins, looks like my internet quota is gonna be running a lil low for a while... how many batts con you fit in the hole if you do cut it? i spose more room is better, doesnt matter how small it is lol! get cutting boy

have you upgraded the battery and "big 3" (earths)? doing this usually get rid of most headlight dimming, also upgrading the amps earths to a bigger guage and making sure they have good contact with the body helps a bit, as for the caps, since youve already got them you may as well put them in but im not quite sure how to do that. doing all the other stuff first is a good idea though

push it in better and see if that fixes it, also if you use spade connectors to connect the speaker wires to your subs one of the voice coils may have come undone, i kept having this problem with mine till i soldered them... i dunno what gear you have so thats all i got for now...

sketchup designs look good i also just finished the planning on one of these for my car so il be interested to see how it turns out, well at least if i dont get mine done first lol

ha ha well the build aint done yet so nope ha ha also jk... bugger about chicken dropping the ball, but heres hoping he sorts out whatever it is and get back into the hoopty soon!

just watched the vids and i cant stop grinning like a madman lol, its been a long time coming but its all worth it! as for hairtricks in the second vid, it might be just me but i swear all those chicks hair was movin when they were sittin in the seats... AMAZING STUFF~!!

i cant think of any words to describe the work you do great work on the kicks and sills but im keen to find out what your doing to replace that ugly steering wheel... keep on being an inspiration for all of us

ive been watching this build for over 6 months now and yes ive read every one of those 287 pages, i know steves a busy man and the hoopty is a massive project that definatly shouldnt be rushed and i wasnt "making demands" just wondering what had been done lately as there hadnt been any updates for over 2 weeks, im sure your all just as keen to see the latest amazing piece on the biggest baddest car stereo ever... anyways steve amazing work as usuall keep it up
