carshateme Posted July 9, 2013 Author Report Posted July 9, 2013 Well box is done, just need to cut the sub holes out. I always seem to screw something up...if you can't tell. The bottom half of the port is off by 1/8".... fml lol. If it messes with anything, I'll rebuild the box, but it doesn't, I'm not worried about it. New build coming soon.

carshateme Posted July 10, 2013 Author Report Posted July 10, 2013 Got the subs in the box and tested them; they sound amazingly nice. Soldered the wires: Running them at 2 ohms, gotta parallel them: Soldering two wires together After a bit of clamping the solder down, got them to fit perfectly into the terminals: One thing I love about sundown is that their terminals move sideways. Very convenient when your sub hole is a bit on the tight side: Back side view, I will be sealing those holes with silicone, inside and out, unless someone has a better idea (please let me know) Looks perfect to me, just got to carpet the front and put it in my car: New build coming soon.

carshateme Posted July 22, 2013 Author Report Posted July 22, 2013 Okay, got a few things done today. I got the back trim made, All I have to do is mount it down and seal it off. I ran into some problems sealing off the subs from the trunk, so I did a lazy route and put deadener all around it. Going to fiberglass, bondo and paint it white later, after I make sure everything sounds good and all. I also wired the batteries. Yes, I know I will be getting rid of some of that extra wire later...way to much wiring lol; had some bad experiences with not having enough wiring. Need to buy 2 fuses for the battery to amp. But so far it's looking good, the batteries are running at 13.8v on a stock alternator. Down the road, I will be getting a singer alternator. Yesterday, I made the false floor. Turned out pretty good, just has to be bolted down. New build coming soon.

KillaCam Posted July 22, 2013 Report Posted July 22, 2013 Is it really your car or are you building for someone else? Btw your licence plate got the "baseball, hot dogs, applegate, and cheverolet" song stuck in my head. And the fact more than one person agrees does not make it a circle jerk, it makes it a bukkake scene and you're in the middle Chick took 3 shots of Jager, and then, pissed in my mouth..

carshateme Posted July 29, 2013 Author Report Posted July 29, 2013 Okay, I got lazy, I didn't feel like doing the back trim, plus I ran out of room so I did a little changing in my plan. I just need two more things. A longer RCA cable and waiting for my add-a-circuit (for remote wire) to come in the mail. New build coming soon.

carshateme Posted August 6, 2013 Author Report Posted August 6, 2013 Everything is hooked up now. I have an in-line hooked up to the 2 front speakers to the sub RCA that goes into the 3Sixty. I wanted to prevent the fade effect that comes off my radio...this was the only way to go. From what my friend said, My car looks like it has a giant bomb in the trunk. Once everything is running smoothly and operating nicely, I will clean the wiring up a bit. For now, it's going to look like crap. My dumbass didn't know about programming the 3Sixty so for now I'm without any sound in my car except for the 3 stock tweeters on my front dash. So lovely lol. I got a mini Add-a-circuit and put the fuse on my ignition. So my amps and 3Sixty will shut off when my car is off and turn on only when I have the car on. (the add-a-circuit is being used as a remote wire) I don't want a kill switch, however; I do need to buy the remote for the 3sixty as mine didn't come with one...seller neglected to tell me it didn't have one...go figures. But here's some pictures (that look like crap) I unplugged the remote wire and taped it up for I'm not powering my amps nor 3Sixty til I have the 3Sixty programmed correctly and the amps as well. New build coming soon. [center][url="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/3/sigtoo.jpg/"][img]http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/9541/sigtoo.jpg[/img][/url][/center]
carshateme Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Posted August 11, 2013 Well here's an update. I ordered a 3Sixty3 Rockford signal processor brand new. I ain't buying anything used anymore. Not after that guy just screwed me over and laughed at me in the face. Only cost me $374 off of ebay...so I'm not complaining. I'll just buy the bluetooth chip that the 3Sixty2 processor needs and fix it myself and resell it. But I'll be getting the new procoessor on the 14th, so I should have my system up and running and some videos posted soon here. New build coming soon.
