1999 Chevrolet Blazer - Stereo Integrity, Ground Zero, Soundstream


Recommended Posts

looks cool gil, real cool. improvements with the little stereo integrity drivers? they looks sweet...

Yeah, they're starting to loosen up and sound great. To be fair I haven't given them the circumstances for a proper review (I haven't tuned for these drivers at all, not really enough power, not really broke in yet), so I'm going to do real review once that happens.

Running sealed This time?

I'm pretty sure I am. Not totally decided, but I was impressed with the SHD sealed. Granted, that thing was amazing sealed, but I still think I'll be pretty happy with a sealed box.

I think I have all materials now, so that's good. Chopped off the top, cut things a bit more. Fitted the front wall and glued that in.

Here's what it will look like.

Going to just screw down the bottom amp board. All wiring and everything is going to be beneath that so I need access to it.


Also made the shelf for the SS above the GZ's, but I'll wait until that's mounted to show.


Also also, I'm not caring a whole lot about how this looks, because this might all be temporary. Not sure how long this car is going to last. Going to drive it until I can't though.

Going to be drilling holes through the dowels and running the wires up through there. Kinda nervous about that shelf holding the amp to be honest, but a lot of glue, and I have 4 screws each side from the back. Should be ok. I guess I'll find out if it doesn't lol.


Subs will be on their way this week I hope. Shooting for install over the long weekend.

hope to see this and you again here in a month!

Unless something awesome happens, this won't be there; I barely trust it into the city. But I'll be riding the bike up if the weather is going to be good.

Ha, funny you should say that, because I just fucked it all up! Lol. Well, kinda. I guess I was going too fast drilling through the dowels and the holes are all uneven and the wood is all split around the holes. Blecht. But, this is what I'm doing. I'll be making cuts on the board behind the GZ amps to run everything up.

Also glued on the shelf and the two sub baffles. Should be ready for stain after a couple more cuts and a quick edge routing.
