      Those katzkin kits are pretty nice and somewhat easy to install.

      They are nice, but a little hard to slide on. I have that now in my buick. I can probably find seats for a couple hundred out of a wrecked SS.

  6. Quick question... when sealing off... do you have to seal the bottom of the box also?

      Shouldn't be when I screw it down to my false floor..

      My beauty panel covers all sides.

      but, if your box is screwed to the bottom, I wouldnt worry.. Put it in, and see.. Only real way to see.

      My false floor meet the rear deck that the box sat on when i did mine. Just for good measure I put some deadened on it though.

  7. I have a lot of tracking #'s to keep up with :D

      i like putting ham and cheese on my waffles as soon as they come out of the toaster, so i get a waffle sandwich that is all warm cause it just came out of a toaster. Also he asked, begging is repeated and whatnot.

      Lol I think I'm good where I'm at.. the rest of the work (applying chop mat & sanding body filler) is cake.. I think its safe to say that I'm good lol The only thing I would have to worry about is careless mistakes, which I prevent by taking my time, so I'm not worried :)

      Overall Design wise, sealing off is the better option, but when I have passengers and have to lift my seats up then My system is useless.. at least with rear fire, sound can go thru the rear deck speaker holes :/

      @Tecomah and thats another thing, I don't want to go thru a whole seal off just to be disappointed! I've heard other members cars sealed off, but honestly the bass doesn't sound as "full" as rear fire. I mean the bass is there don't get me wron...

      Does it look like my car is even CLOSE to being rice? GTFOH lol

      @Karkov it's more for sound but I don't mind reaping the extra benefits from it... But I'll be getting exhaust, intake and my second set of hertz next week, so I'm getting the best of both worlds!

  21. I think my next enclosure build, I'm going to go ahead try the Aero port method... Easier to construct, takes less space then the convientional slot port and more efficient.. Sounds too good to be true, but I'm willing to give it a shot!! Read up on the sticky in the Enclosure section and like what I saw!!

      Takes up way too much fuckin baffle space Eric.

  22. The amount of knowledge on this forum is unreal, BUT what good is it if you going to bash people for not knowing what you know? INSTEAD OF TALKING DOWN, HOW ABOUT YOU GROW TF UP AND ACTUALLY SPREAD THAT KNOWLEDGE!!

  23. How many "secondary" batteries should I run with a 4k setup? I'm being told I need 3 100ah batteries in addition to a starting battery and my Singer 265a. Is this true?? Thats a HELL of A LOT of weight for my car esp being a Daily!!

  24. Just dropped the first vid documenting the current status and the rebuild of Red Ruby!! Tomorrow, I'm going to drop another video for everyone who is following my progress and showing love!!

  25. there's a lot going into my next build. On one hand I'm excited because I've never been over 2k rms, on the other hand, I hope this shit work out as planned! Lol

      Lol I feel you... It's not gonna be TOO hard of a build, the main thing I'm most concerned with is my doors pods because it'll be my first time fiberglassing! I don't have a problem with the build part. the only thing that'll be different from anything I've ever done is add an extra battery and seal off... nothing major. Its not like im building a wall lol

    3. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      take the door panels slow, and be patient. I kinda rushed mine and they didn't turn out the best. they aren't bad especially for my first time fiberglassing but they could be better for sure.

    4. Wood

      Wood

      I'm definitely going to take my time!!! I'm not looking into finishing this build until november, but I will be pulling my door panels by the end of the month and I will have my enclosure Design from Q of DSS done by Next week. I plan on not only putting it in audio shows, but actual car shows so this will be done as close to perfection as I can. I am pretty handy and have good attention to detail so I'm sure I can pull it off!
