Recommended Posts

Dude that sub flex in the first video is freaking sexy!!!!

Thanks man, It's been a long and hard climb to get a decenlty respectable system in the zx2 :)

I'm still working on that climb in the xterra....

hardest an most important is getting proper electrical. Idk where you are now but I would get extra batteries before alt if you are on a tight budget. Good luck though. I need to get my alt repaired :(

Funny you say that man because I have a new alt coming soon instead of batteries haha.

Haven't got anything posted yet. It all was on hold cause my saw went down but got a table saw for bday last month woot. Now I can get my cuts done. I was wondering if yours did that. I guess it must be the type of foam that is used for seat backs. Going to figure out a way around this lol.

It'll still be a big improvement. heads up though, do yourself a favor and ground the alt to the frame too. It improved my voltage because of the old corroted stock grounds :D

you know... my bday is on sunday if you want to regift that table saw to me :P I asked for a nice circular saw and jigsaw for christmas, now all I need is a router and circle jig

yea it sounds like shit with the seats up, try putting a hole in the rear deck if you want rear seat use to let give the sound pressure somewhere to go. I don't think it's the material unless the material is actually rattleing and soudns like shit

why are you downgrading? I want to turn mine into a comp care after I get my BA in MET this spring :) I was thinking of a wall or 4th order trunk with 2 15's or 12's :shrug:

Lol I'll let ya use it if you come down here :). It's only a 30 min drive trallalalala. I might have a extra router circle jig. The foam in the seats of my car is very dense and thick foam. I took a 130db air horn to see the differance. Useing my iPad it showed it going from 128db at 8" away open to 59-61db at 8" with the seat in between the horn and iPad. That was a big difference to me.

I think your sub is broken bro.
