1997 Nissan Hardbody build (Subs are in!)


Recommended Posts

I figured since I kinda started my build yesterday I would start a thread and just post up as I go. Still waiting on some stuff to get here but I have enough that I can get it started.
The truck is a bagged and bodydropped 97 Nissan Kingcab pickup that will be getting a Chevy small block dropped into it probably this winter. The interior from the windows down is all Herculined, most of the wiring is already ran, and the headunit is already installed from the last system.

The components I will be using are:

-Pioneer AVH-P4000DVD
-Audio Control Matrix (Subs, 6.5's, & 5.25's)
-Clarion MCD360 X-over
-Soundstream XTA360.4 for highs (Temporary)
-4 PPI PT.2 Super Tweeters (>3000 hz)
-RF Punch 360a2 for Mids (Temporary)
-Focal 6M115 Mid-bass drivers (x8 - 4 per door) (63hz-1500hz)
-2 Scosche EFX 5.25's (1500hz-3000hz)
-Xtant X1001 (Modded) Ordered the first of 2 Soundstream Rubicon 1.2500D's (2/25/13)
-2 DD3512d's
-4.99^3 @ 35hz SOLD. New one in the works soon. No more downfiring
-Memphis 6 ch and 2 ch RCAs
-Memphis 1/0 Wiring
-Deka 9A78DT Battery
-Kinetik HC600
-Dual 140a alternators

I have all the amps for sale locally and once they sell I plan on picking up a Soundstream Rubicon 1.2500D for the subs, a Rubicon 2.600 for the mids, and a Rubicon 4.500 for the tweets. Also, if necessary I may add another Deka 9A78DT battery.

Will start posting pics tonight after I get some work done. Hopefully I can get it gutted and the box built/put in today.

He was taunting me. He's all like "come at me bro!" So I'm like "I'm coming at you bro!" And he's like "hey, fuck you" *chomp*. Then I killed it. I win.

^^^ you have truly taken being a lazy fuck to a new level tonight, an MRE. WOW

Well thanks to some shitty weather and a fussy, teething 9mo old I didn't get as much done as I wanted but figured I would post some pics of what I did get done to keep the thread moving along.

Here's my messy garage/work area

Forgot to put pics of my newest arrival in the last post. Came home to these on my porch!

Wonder what could be inside???

14 Focal 6M115 6.5" Mids. Only 8 of them are going in this build though.

Working on the box. I kept test fitting everything along the way to make sure it was going to fit how I planned.

It was a bitch putting the sides on this by myself. I started putting it together and then realized that the sides had to mount on the outside of the back wall not on top of it.

Top in place and test fitting where the port will go. Ended up slipping with my router while rounding off the ends of the port so I'm gonna make a new one when I get back to it.

One last test fit before calling it a day.

Thanks for the compliments. I have a lot of plans for this truck. I'm currently building a Chevy small block to drop in it as well as pulling all the airride and putting hydraulics on it as soon as I get the stereo out of the way and can make some more room in the garage to work on it.

This is the only decent pic I have of the whole truck. This is from not quite 2 years ago just before I left Phoenix, AZ to move back to Wisconsin.

If you go on my garage on here you can check out some of the other rides I've built. This one is the only one I currently have but there will be others.

Just have to make new motor mounts and tranny x-member but other than that it will fit fine. Mating it up to a 700r4 which fits in the tranny tunnel without any mods.
