Bump4life's New Benz **Updated 5/13/15. lowered and ipad dash installed!**


Recommended Posts

Awesome work Dan :)

That Merc needs some sensible lows though, surely you can roll the arches so the tires don't rub and sort some engine raisers so you don't break anything underneath?

I've got mine at the perfect height where I can still get everywhere but it looks low. I have a big plastic front splitter and mud guards on the back which are cheaply replaceable so it doesn't matter when they scrape on occasion when driving off curbs etc

Interesting wire color. I like though

Thanks alaskanzx5 I might just do that
I can recone a sub myself. About a year ago I took 2 12" power acoustic mofos and made one sub. I took the magnet and the motor off of one and j b welded it to the other motor and magnet. I had to wind my own voice coil so it would work. After I was done hooked up to 2 boss 5000w amps. And shattered my back and all my side windows

came to this thread to recommend soundqubed and ct sounds. OP goes with soundstream.

oh lawd.

Great box.

Perfect wheels. :good:

Nice job on the body moldings.

Not my style on the headlights, but still decent.

If you want the stance you posted (which I totally agree with) look for H&R springs. Best progressive springs I have found for European cars when mounted on a decent strut. Great ride, nearly stock. Softer dead coils than Eibach so not as bouncy on a stock strut too. They are on par with Eibach for quality as they use the same type spring winder, much longer lasting without losing strength than the cheaper springs like Sprint/Intrax or Megan. Or if you can get them cheaper Neuspeed springs are rebadged H&Rs.

As for now I'll leave you with the same tease I give all the stock height guys: Looks like you car is afraid of it's tires... :P

Static drops are my bag.

well it plays. highs are ridiculous. it can play down to 16hz. love the badnwidth and the sound. cant believe its a 10.

now the issues. PORT NOISE FROM THE REAR.

the 3 inch port in back is too small. I was worried about this. I originally planed on a 4 inch back there but i couldnt come up with a clever way to fit it. Now i must find a way.

I may have termlab sweep by tomorrow if Pioneer4life can come through

got to hear and meter it today. for a single ten i have to say its gettin it. especially since its on less than 500 watts. the rear port is a little too small which

is hurting the lows a bit but that problem is already being solved. it was firing forward at first but we decided to try firing it to the rear and it was so much louder

that way. but once it gets sealed off that wont be a problem. but overall for the power it is on it sounds great.
