01ExSport Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 (edited) Alright guys, decided to wait until the build was finished to start a log. Gear list is H/u - Alpine CDE-123 Subs- 2 AQ HDC3 15's Aluminum coil Sub Amp - AQ3500d.1 4ch Amp - Alpine mrp-f300 Door speakers - Polk DXI 570 x4 2 Pos and Neg runs of Knu OFC All Knu RCAs Electrical consists of a Mechman 270A alt, D3400 up front, and a D3100 in the back. All connected with ProjectDB battery terminals. Anywho, on to the pictures....i'm sure i'm forgetting something or leaving pictures out. Alt compared to stock D3400 in with stock wiring Double-up of big 3 added, because I know an upgrade is bound to happen It was hard drilling into the Ex All grommets put in place Runs finished to the back Not the prettiest thing, but made brackets to keep my fuse holders in place. (old Droid Eris with no flash FTL) Coming up from under the car, wires were ran of the drivers side. Woo! Alot more time than I thought it was going to take. Shot of the runs covered in conduit from the front Under the car look at the wires coming in the cabin What the runs looked like before the conduit clamps. Free conduit from work FTW! Ya know, looks just a little tidier with the clamps on.... Used the spots that the running boards bolted into since they weren't being used And now a few random shots of the equipment... Amp size comparison to the Zune Yum XS goodness Can't have a badass crimp without these Edited May 27, 2012 by 01ExSport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01ExSport Posted May 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Little Mockup of the idea for the amp rack And......DONE! Came out decent for a first timer, haha. Final fit of the rack Wires ran and battery dropped in. Dont worry, I cleaned up every bit of slack Just sao sexy Placing fuses in the back, later added two more to the left from battery to amp. And it was put on hold for a bit, Took a trip to the Chicago area to meet up with the box guru Team DOA Mike (aka mlstrass) Had a good time watching him do all the work and then go a demo of Barney. Going from never hearing a 150 before to being in that van was just rediculous! Spurred ideas of a rebuild before I even got this one playing, lol. But! almost cried when it looked like it wasn't going to the clear the back window But it did, and it's just plain sexy. 8.5 cubes tuned to 36hz. 41Wx21Dx~27H The woofers finally have a nice home Belive it or not I'm still about 3.5 inches off the hatch Few pictures of the dash. the slot under the H/u was the perfect size for the bass knob and fabbed up a piece of wood with velcro that the stinger screwed into. Crappy phone pics don't do it justice. And it's all stuffed into this. Has a little sagging, but swapping in 4 door leaf springs and getting some cheap black cragar rims until i go to 33s with Dick Cepek DC-2's. I'll Upload Vids in the next couple days. Can already do a decent hairtrick with the gain pretty liberal. DD-1 and CC-1 on the way! Should be nuts after everything tuned! Leave some feedback, guys! Hope ya like it, and feel free to ask any questions abut how I did certain things, or need pictures of something. Like I said, I know i'm probably leaving alot out right now, though.
