Misc. Sealed off trunk - '01Stratus *Gutted*


Recommended Posts

Looks pretty sick! More power?... They might play lower when they loosen up a bit

I have a bit more power on tap if I tune the amp on the -10dB tone. I just want to get used to it right now and know it's limitations. Sooooo not used to all the flex everywhere lol. I found out they hit the lows just fine :peepwall: I just need the windows down.

Here's a vid. I figured I should get something up lol. Quality is horrific, just a heads up. It's the camera that has survived me smashing it and dropping stuff on it.

I did notice a smell. I hope its not them starting to get stinky. I didn't know if they put off a smell when they are new or not. This is the second time that I have played them this long. After playing it with the windows up, I put them down and played a few songs, HUGE difference. Much louder/more flex.

I will get some vids that should be 1080 or 720 here in a few weeks.

looking good and clean... what ohm load are your subs on?

1 ohm

it almost looks like it could be coming through from that rear light as well. Check that out. I dont see how it would come from the bottom of the car though. It has to be the ant. or light.

also a lil tip. When you are metering put a piece of pvc in the gap when the back seats are folded down in between the seat and trunk. its good for a tenth or two ;)

I also gained when I took the carpet off my box. But i know you want it to look factory.

Ha thanks for that tip! Question, if I did compete, what event would I want to go into? I get so mind boggled when looking at all the different classes.

Nice build. How do you like that knu deadener? I was thinking of getting some myself.

It's pretty good. Of course I don't know how many rattles that there would have been with out it, but still. No rattles can be heard from the inside. There are spots on the outside where I didn't apply it (on the inside) and it rattles there

very nice build and a fine example of how a trunk box is truly sealed off. i love how you did the trim panels angled. so everything fires forward. thats how i do mine. The only thing i dnt like is carpet lol. i usally use paint. carpet kills spl imo. no trim panels in the trunk around the box?

Ha I'm not finished yet. I still have that trim panel that will cover up battery. I also have the factory carpet that goes over the wheel well. Won't see any metal when its fully done. I'm just taking a break since I basically spent every free hour I had towards the end here. I also don't care if the carpet kills spl, I want a factory/nice look to the box. Painting would have been WAYY easier but carpet was more worth it to me.

Oops missed that, I was looking for cone movement and such. You can go up in power IMO just keep it clean.

Yeah I am still a bit weary with the volume as it is now. I know at full tilt everything is clean, but there is some kind a smell when it starts going. I am assuming it is just that new smell and not the coils starting to get smelly. I was playing full tilt for about 10 mins straight and the dust caps weren't even warm. So I don't think it is the coils.
