Afficionado Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Hello all and welcome to my build log. I recently got this car, a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am, 4 cylinder 5 speed. This is my first real build and i am still a student. My main priority in life is health and fitness and lifting, car audio is my hobby. Regardless, i still love car audio, i just have little knowledge on it. so PLEASE feel free to give me tips and tricks and lots of help because i will take all of the advice i can get. Also, i just got engaged four days ago, and i have to save money for the wedding, for school, i still owe my parents some money for my motorcycle, etc. So my build won't be like some people here that have crazy excess money, at the same time, it is a small build and i won't drag it out forever. I live in Maine and the bass community is tiny...we have one competition a year i think, and that is July 28th. My goal is to be able to compete in that, just for fun. The build... from the top... Headunit- Pioner AVH-P2400BT Mids and Highs amp- Rockford T400-4 Mids and highs- (TEMPORARY until i get extra money, this is just for now so it plays) Rockford prime series 4" (they sound awful by the way) Sub amp- Rockford T2500-bdCP Sub- Sundown Z v.3 12" Alternator- Mechman 240 amp Batteries- XS Power D3100 and D1200 Wire- Using the Rockford wire i have right now until i get the money to pick up some more Sky high I do not have quite all of the equipment yet, but i am working on it, i have a BUSY schedule and this is my FIRST build, so i do what i can with what i have. expect more pictures today. If you have any questions relating to nutrition, lifting, or health in general, feel free to give me a PM and I will give you straight forward advice with no BS involved.

COLTON94 Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 If you search google you can find another grand am build. He may be able to help you out a bit. Real nice guy. I had a grand am and the largest box you can fit without building in the trunk is like 4 cubes. But if ur not afraid to trim a bit i think you can fit 6 cubes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afficionado Posted July 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 What part of Maine?!!?!??! Finally a fellow Mainah!! someone else from maine?! no way! I'm central maine. Waterville/skowhegan area, and you? I have the same car. Is yours a 2.2? yes sir. What type of setup are you going to run?? hm, what do you mean? all of my gear is in the OP. If you search google you can find another grand am build. He may be able to help you out a bit. Real nice guy. I had a grand am and the largest box you can fit without building in the trunk is like 4 cubes. But if ur not afraid to trim a bit i think you can fit 6 cubes oh sweet, thanks. I think either of those sizes will be much too big for a 12" z though, right? especially on a T2500 bdCP If you have any questions relating to nutrition, lifting, or health in general, feel free to give me a PM and I will give you straight forward advice with no BS involved.
