2008 350z Build

[graham0599]

Equipment:

Headunit- Pioner AVH-X4500BT

Subs- 2 10" DC Level 3's with AR cones, 8 layer level 4 coil, and spider upgrades

Sub Amps- 1 Formula X 5k

Components- 1 set of Crescendo Mezzo components (replaced mids with carbon CNF 6.5's)

Mids Amp- RE Audio CTX-1600.2

Power Wire- Audiotechnix 1/0

Speaker Wire- SHCA 12ga

RCA- T-Spec V12RCA-202

Backup Cam- Crimestopper SV-5130.IR

To-Do List:

1. Rewire 5k with Audiotechnix 1/0

2. Finish RGB's

-already have working in floor boards

-place by amp and in trunk

3. Redo amp rack

-will hold RE Audio CTX-1600.2 and Kicker DX400.4

- DX400.4 will run the removable 6x9's, I play audio outside a lot, tailgating, volleyball and such

4. Take Pictures!!!!!

5. Replace Sub RCA's to match

6. Redo mids spacers or build cheap door pod

Something like this cost $5

Goals:

1. Buy DSP and run active. To do so I'd have the RE1600.2 running the mids, then there's a few options

A) DX400.4 runs the 4 6x9's, Off brand 2-channel runs tweets

B ) DX400.4 runs tweets on two channels and the 4 6x9's on other two channels

C) DX400.4 runs tweets on two channels, 2 6x9's on other two channels, and off brand 2-channel runs other 2 6x9's

The options are ranked in order. Option A provides most power to the system but idk how the 2-channel will make the tweets sound. If it doesn't meet my standards then I'll go to option B. If option B isn't loud enough then I'd throw in the other 2-channel. 6x9's main goal is volume but I still don't want it sounding like shit.

2. Port the subs and have box in rear half of the trunk instead of front

You should try sealing off around the box so there is no leaking under the strut bar. That way back of the car acts like the ported side of a 4th BP with port being the space above the strut bar. I think it makes a difference in sound in my Z and my sub is sealed.

I'll add that to the to-do list!

So I need input on what to do here, I'm probably going to be buying the Kicker Front Row today, looks like a good deal and reliable

[graham0599]

Installed some LEDs in the back, changed a couple bolts, fixed some rattles, and added some deadener.

Ran out of washer so had to redneck engineer in the meantime

Amp back in. Still going to rewire later so all wire matches. This is installed with old scrap pieces. Just need to buy lugs and solder

All lights on white
