whats your amp budget? you will more than likely end up building the box yourself. a few of the members here provide great box designs for a little $. as for subs, its really hard to say. but two sundown audio SA-12s is a really nice option. skar audio Ascendant audio try looking here at the subs and see what you like.. all of those subs are very nice and will get you loud in the right box.

firstly, need an exact/estimated budget. secondly, everyone WILL TELL YOU to start small so you can learn from your mistakes.

yay, now theres no way i cant stick with skar now. previously i was thinking for upgrades.. wheres the 2k from skar.. i cant jump to the 4.5k. glad theres mid ground between the 1500 and 4500 now. now with the 1500W sub line, ill stick with skar for a looooong time :] thanks kevin for awesome products, and thanks malib00m for advertising so well what skar audio can do, even on low power (your first build, 3-400w per driver). favorite quote from giving a few demos.. "whos skar.. man idk, but it sounds so good, and low"

great stuff

box position? (subs up, port up, subs up port back, subs back port back, subs forward port forward) etc

im not familiar with a 350z. you could try 1/2" mdf instead of 3/4" though. just trying to give you ways not to destroy your car lol

lift the box up and slide mdf in?

large sheet of mdf under the box, screw box to sheet of mdf. this is called a "false floor" you could also not have enough port. i dont know anything about arc audio. wheres your subsonic set at?

tune it with a dd1 and you wont worry. they can take 1500w clean power

EASILY papaslim. got my VVX 12s on a sk 1500. no coil smell, doesnt get hot, perfect damn amp for them hands down. just make sure your box isnt too big, dont play below tuning, dont clip. the VVX line craves for more power tbh.

hes going to do what hes going to do anyways :]

he's quite new and everyone is suggesting him to get 4000 watts which is no easy feat. one small strand of wire in the wrong spot and POOF there goes thousands of dollars. i can easily see him fucking up an install like that, if you want me to be honest he said he wanted a wall and to be loud though

not really random.. he wanted a price range. then he gave us a budget. hes quite new at this, so narrowing his search down is a nice thing to do.. naming amps, giving price ranges of good equipment helps greatly i can assure you.

sundown audio NS-1 amp? ;x

whatever, im not getting into this.. comparing vehicle vs vehicle. what works in yours, works in his rite?

the biggest HO alt you can fit: $4-700 subs: $4-800 each wire: $2-300 batts: $2-400 ea amps: $5-800 super rough estimates, but all of the figures are for well known, good brands.

where are you pulling your numbers from?? you dont need a 10k watt system a well i had less then 5k rms to 4 15s and was doing a 153 at 29hz and it took your breath away, hell it almost made my buddy shit himself like straight up he had run inside go shit.... and before that i had 2 15s on 2 alpine 1000 watters and was up in the 150s was at 42hz but still did some damage since he said hes not doing comps, i would assume hes not going to drive around shooting tones.... if i remember correctly, getting louder on music is much harder than on tones..

firstly whats your budget.. cause we're talkin $700 for ONE sub right now

to lose breath is like mid 150s or higher imo. ive never experienced 150s or anything near it, but from what i read/gather its usually around a 157 that does it. also your looking at like 2-4 subs, not just 1. something like 2-3 dc level 5 18s or 4 xl m2 15s.. but something around like 10k+ watts. sundowns Z series is quite nice, no idea on the incriminator audio situation though as they arent often used on this site

for 10 grand im sure someone can make you hit mid 50s :]

and then take 4 weeks to get your alt... hope you realize other places take much longer. but many factors come in to making alts Tebo. your 4 weeks may take him 2 days. your alt is not his alt.

this is where my knowledge stops, but i think the next step besides a new alt is something like a batt isolator kit. could be wrong.

okay for 5 thousand watts rms, i think your past the "blasting on occasions" part. sure it will work with a HO alt and a d3100 under the hood.. but enjoy your 20-30 seconds of "blasting" for a little car i would imagine that they would offer somewhere around a 200 amp alt in your price range. since you can fit a D3100 under the hood, i think a D3100 in the back and 2 runs of 1/0 pos and 2 runs of 1/0 neg should keep you around the 13V area.

if 450 is your price range i think you should REALLY try out singer alternators. he will email you a quote within 1-2 days and is very reasonable about the price for a unit.

says i have to be a member of CACO to view the anton miller rendering. on another note, these look like they will be some pretty scary things to watch at full power.
