Thats right! Build your own ride from the ground up, then it's a one off!

Nice video! Man I wanna be able to do that! One day...

Lol! That will make someones sig!

Man, hopefully I am the exception! I've had a lot of shitty jobs, so this I believe I will like! Thanks man!

Thank you, that was a very nice compliment! I may have forgot to mention, but the plan all along was to start back to school this fall. So this job will be perfect for me - work thru the day, classes in the evening! And that sounds like a really good idea for you too! And I don't mind, they are starting me at $9/hr, 40+ hrs a week, to do mostly tint and vinyl stuff. The pay would increase if/when I were to move up into fab. I am just pumped to get to work with some people I can learn so much from! Their top fab guy has 30+ years experience, and does some really nice work! This is the first job I have ever truly looked forward to starting!

Thanks man! Yeah I wanted to do both jobs, but DQ needed someone for days and evenings, and I couldn't do days. But they may still call for me to work evenings, I'm down for as many hours as I can get! I had applied for some construction work. You can make decent money at it. But in my area most people in construction get laid off thru the winter, which I am trying to avoid.

Hello SMD! I just wanted to take a min to thank Steve and everyone here who puts this site together. As we all know, the economy SUCKS, many people have lost their jobs, and the cost of living gets higher daily. I, like many others, got laid off several months back, and let me tell you, un-employment is just not enough! So for the past few months, I have been job hunting like a mofo! And finally my efforts have paid off. I start my new job tomorrow at Car Stuff Unlimited, the best shop in my area! And I have to be honest, had I not stumbled across this site, I probably never would have had the knowledge or confidence to even try to get a job there. The same day they called me, Dairy Queen called too, and I would have had to take the job. But instead of flipping burgers in a fast food joint, I get to work in an area I love and respect. So again, thanks to everyone! Tomorrow will be the beginning of something really good! I feel extremely blessed! Also, much more pics will be coming to the site now as well! Some really sweet rides come out of this shop, and you know I will share my experiences! So keep a look out, new pics coming soon! And again, THANK YOU SMD!

Now THAT is what I call a hairtrick!

I have been thinking, is there any way you can do the test again, only this time reverse the order of the batteries? See, I am wondering if the tester was pulling a different load the first time used, as opposed to the last. If you could do it again, this time reversing the order of the batteries, then that would remove any questions about the testing procedures. Thanks for your time.

Hey man I just now found this post, you still have this by chance?

Yeah, after looking at a few other walls w/ L5's, it's kinda disappointing. I think I'm almost doin better w/ what I got rt now! I may just need to re-think everything in general. Thanks for the input!

fecupe2001 brought up a good point. I am on tiny power(1244rms), maybe I am chasing something the wrong way? Trying to do too much w/not enough? My son is totally against a 4th order, he wants me to double up and do a wall. And I think I need to learn more b4 I waste wood and time, so maybe a wall would be better for what I want. So what do you guys think, should I just hold off 4 a min, get 2 more 12's and another amp, and do a wall? Thanks for you time guys!

Man, think about XS Power instead of Kinetik.

Oh man that is awesome!

DAMN!! isn´t that too big dwright? he has small power tho, but wouldn´t that thing play too low even with a high tuning on the ported chamber? Yeah, I want the lows of course, but nothing my subs can't handle. And what ratio would you think sounds better?

Okay, so you're saying do separate sealed chambers for each sub, w/ the single ported up front? 2 sealed and 1 ported? That's what I was originally thinkin

Okay, so I want to build a 4th order bandpass for my 2 12" L5's in a 2002 PT Cruiser. I have done several sealed boxes, a couple of ported, but this is my first bandpass build. I owned a bandpass years ago, and have wanted to do one ever since. So now the time has come. Here is what I have to work with: 2 - 12" Kicker Solo L5 D2 1 - 2010 Kicker ZX1000.1 = "1244 birth sheet" Big Three 1/0 = DONE 2 - Kinetik HC1400 = DONE 190a LoadBoss = DONE Hushmat Pro 60+ sq ft Plus components, DVD, etc. Plan is to take out the backseats, so I have a lot of room. I wanted something where I can see the subs doin work, but still get optimal performance. Measurements are roughly 35" width, up to 35" length, and probably no taller than 20" in height. Preferably around 18", but can do more. So, if anyone is interested in helping me design a good setup, I'd really, really appreciate it! Edit My son and a few friends all think I should double up on subs and amps, and do a wall. What do u think?

How about "Team Infinite Excursion"

LOL!

Oh yeah, of coarse I just bought 2 new Kinetiks a few months ago. FML!!! Next time will be XS for sure!

I think he meant to say something like this, maybe? Ha, I still don't really know what the question is!

Hey I LOVE your car! But I'm not understanding a few things you said, sorry <me what exactly is a "windscreen"? And the box specs, you said,"around 70 liters sealed box (1 sub)" - Does that mean the the entire first chamber (2 subs) is 140 liters, just two seperat 70 liter chambers? And the second chamber, is that doubled also, or just 450 total? Again, I really, really love this car. Thanks for sharing!

Or if u have a facebook account, u can use it instead of photobucket. But the pics have to be on another site. Then you copy their URL, and paste it here into the "insert photo" tab. Then you got it! Hope I helped. Did someone say Tahoe and Kicker? Need pics!!!!

Hey man, fyi you have to use the "insert photo" button on the top. Here are the pics u were showing. And btw, the car looks really nice!
