bsneon98 Posted July 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 Friend of mine sold me 2 mtx thunder 12's for 15 bucks so I made a box for the Pt cruiser lol. Box actually sounded amazing for only being 500 watts! Since i had everything wired up for bass i figured ehh what the hell. lol Also dipped the wheels because those chromes were a pain in the ass to keep clean, and working 2 jobs i cant keep my daily driver detailed as much as i used too Also new deck Gave myself a fat sun visor also. lol Decided to make a big ass box for the mtx's just for shits and giggles and it sounds so much better ported! 1 Quote Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/152954-1998-plymouth-neon-updates/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsneon98 Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 Heys guys, been a while since I updated this but i have been super busy. Much more stuff coming shortly but for right now ill catch you all up.Starting building this box for my cousin. 4 12's, 4 cubes sealed, Ford Ranger (no more escort zx2) Resin was in the sun and started to cook, eh still works My fat ass finger in the way but got the top 2 baffles cut and flush trimmed Then it occurred to me, oh fuck. Made a 50 mile trip just to make sure this wasnt an issue. Close but it fits! 3rd and final baffle, mainly for cosmetics. One of the first coats of stain, just to get an idea... Had to tease him with this pic. After several stains and lots of poly. Not too shabby if i say so myself 1 Quote Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/152954-1998-plymouth-neon-updates/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsneon98 Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 (edited) Now its time to test out those door panels ive been working on.(This amp already has been replaced by a OA800.4 This was just for a quick idea) Dont mind the spaghetti, just for quick gain and impedance testing lol Door panels are not finished, will be re finished the same way Im doing my center console. This one with the crushed dustcap is on its last legs but still works! his new brother is sitting in a box until im ready for final installation. All i have to say is even on very conservative tuning, these bitches scream and sound great doing it. Definately want more bass now Also our classic cars garage is getting a new roof so we had to bring them home for one night, figured id take some pics for you guys.

bsneon98 Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 Also, this is my kind of luck. For once i lucked out but this is the shit i deal with lol Couple random pictures from a huge storm that came through the next night. The calm before: Awesome aftermath, powers out for blocks shits sparking in the sky.

bsneon98 Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 Between this post and the last post was almost a year of saving, collecting and planning and waiting for this moment.Got the old one out! Time for a complete overhaul so i can drive my own car again after sitting for 2 years lol Time to de-gunk everything and prep it for paint! What a mess All clean! Old pistons out! Considering this car has 167,000 miles on it these were in amazing condition. The journals were HARDLY worn. Obviously they were getting noisy from some piston slap, so time to replace! Had to get the rest of my exhaust off to fix it properly were it broke a while back, and quick fixed it with a clamp or 2 lol. Figured id take some underneath shots to show how solid this thing is still. Why i justified spending more than it was worth to get it on the road again. Basic ohio surface rust but shes SOLID! Time for some paint! Quote Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/152954-1998-plymouth-neon-updates/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
