Large box, tiny trunk (HDC3 18 in Corolla)


Recommended Posts

Posted

This is a an ugly car but has a nice ass, hence but-her-face

Box for Soundqubed HDC3.118 being built in the trunk of my 02 Corolla

I forgot about the bracing when I was designing the box (oops) so the volume will end up being 5.75 cubic feet

Since I forgot about the bracing the tuning will end up being between 34 and 35hz

Tongue and groove fitting into the bottom

Now we are getting to building the box, due to the small size of my car the box will have to be built inside the car

Took out the back seat

Thinking about make a beauty panel sort of like this, will most likely change tremendously by the time I get to this point

Very rugged assembly of the box in the car

Getting the sides in, we had to angle off the back so the trunk would actually close

We are farther then this actually so hopefully I will get those pics up tonight maybe, other then that we can really only work on the weekends so it will be another couple days before I get anything up. We are hoping to get the box finished at least this weekend and maybe getting the sub in. It will be a while until all the aesthetics are finished though.

Its pretty scary haha, but so far its extremely sturdy, with no major problems... only problem was the trunk not closing but we fixed that by angling the back as I'm sure you saw. Overall its a fun experience though!

This is where we are currently at with the build, as I said before we will get to work again this weekend!

These are just basically pictures of the added interior bracketing, also this will show the little problem that we had with the port.

You will notice that there is a cut in the port, since we dado grooved the port we couldn't fit it into the box. So what we had to do is cut the port in half and then bracket it, this actually turned out very well, the port is very sturdy!

messy amp set up in the corner of the pic, the amp used to be in the spare wheel well, which is now covered by the box, but this is my 4 channel so I couldn't go without music for a week, but there will eventually be an attractive and clean amp rack built for the amp so don't worry everyone!!
