Mazda3 06' 4500 RMS - Tri-Amped Mids/Highs (New Springs - No More Sag!)

[dereileak]

The Top piece to go over everything and give the back a false floor

I opted for birch cause its lighter, doesnt crumble went it gets wet and its nice and stiff, at least for the amp rack, the box is gonna be mdf most likely still

Eventually I will do dual wire to each battery post, this was just for now

And now with the top piece on, I have more room then how they setup the car stock, I gained about 4 inches of depth, and have all my amps, (besides the sub amp) and a battery in the rear

Recone parts for the sa's, have had them for like 3 months now, I just need to do it, ha ha

Testing the fan idea out, worked great, so cleaned it up here next

[dereileak]

Finished at least mechanically, they stay really cool now, that middle fan does over 150 cubic feet per minute with a high static pressure

Cleaned up a lot of the wiring so its tidy and not going to get caught in the fans, lol

I have some new custom springs on order to hold 450lbs extra then stock so my ride will sit level ha ha

This sa had one of the tinsel leads going to one of the wires burnout, so I put the other 2 ohm VC on my amp, and was sending around 2500 rms freeair to it, it took awhile to burn it out, but it finally went, was a lot of fun and around 30 minutes of messing around with it before it blew

STILL TO DO

All the Cosmetics for the amp rack and rest of the car (wrapping viynl and fur )

finish deadening the inside panels of 3 of the doors, the external deadending is all done

New box for the sa's

figure out where to put the zx2500.1

find a spot for the intellecharger, thinking the same as before in that side panel

Fix the broken hatch lock from all the bass

re weild the roof mounts in the front, broke some of the factory mounts in the roof and its causing a lot of vibration when going full tilt, lol

get the scratch off my hood from a chick keying me and my friends car, lol

Get the new springs installed

Wrapping all the engine bay wiring in some nice stuff, you will see, doing it this weekend

Enjoy, thanks for looking, im still working on this baby, will be done next summer I hope, then to take to some shows

My Front fuse block, mechanically done, not cosmentically

400 Amp fuses, ha ha

[dereileak]

Changed out my master and slave cylinder, lets just say it was a pain in the ass but totally worth it, no more sticking

Did some cable sleeving of all the power wire, looks even better in person

Stock spring on the left, new spring on the right

HID Clean Cut off, doesnt show the nice blue line very well, need to see it in person

So this is my horrible sag before, having all the weight in the back has made the car sink very badly

Removed the tires to get the new springs in

Old Stock on the left, New stock in the middle, and new custom spring on the right

Stock spring on the left, new spring on the right

So I still have more weight to add, part of why it sits so high up, it will drop about 1 more inch when I get the rest of the batteries and the new box done, I could stick a hitch on it now if I wanted but it rides so much better, no more harshness, I can corner better, cause it has distributed the weight much better

Kind of has an suv look to it now, or a sports wagon, I like it, the winter tires on it now are a bit small too, the summer tires are the correct size and fill in the wheel gap better, so it will give it a nice look once summer rolls around, now to get more batteries

Cables in the engine look very nice. Makes a world of difference cosmetically. Love it!

Well my mechman alt failed for the second time, I am looking to have Singer build me an alt, apparently mechman uses aluminum pulleys which if they get too hot they will wear the grooves weird and cause bad belt slip, which I am getting. The voltage regulator failed, I was already having horrible voltage spikes with it, and it melted part of the plastics around the + stud. I am moving to a new company, I can never get mechman to answer my emails and they have not been any help over the phone.

[dereileak]

So I wanted to get my external regulator put in a nice spot away from heat, so a I built a nice battery surround, will keep the battery cooler also

Sanded the edges down

Wrapped it in some nice vinyl

All Done Here, including the Turn on Relay Mounted and sleeved
