Daniel Brill-Edwards Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 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 Daniel Brill-Edwards - Representing English Bassheads!!Old Build Log - http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/94637-vw-golf-mk3-1996-build-from-england/ New build coming soon with SMD V1 #99YouTube Channel - http://www.youtube.com/brilledwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefourth Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Interesting wire color. I like though Thanks alaskanzx5 I might just do thatI 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.

jk13 Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Great box. Perfect wheels. 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... Static drops are my bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bump4life Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 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 Buyer/Seller Feedback Thread: http://www.stevemead...5015-bump4life/ MB C220 153 Trunk Car Build Log: http://www.stevemead...d/#entry1840136 MB C280 Ipad Dash SQ Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194484-bump4lifes-new-benz-tony-c-relay-kit-pictures-ce-electric-audison-front-stage-installed/ My SPL Log: http://www.stevemead...__fromsearch__1 BMW M340 xDrive Stock, for now.

pioneerforlife Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 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. 2007 Ford Focus SES Hatchback Pioneer HU 4 Digital Designs 9515i's in a B pillar. 2 Soundstream XXX 15K's (running at 16 volts) Soundstream Mids/Highs in custom door panels (getting rebuilt soon) Soundstream TA2.160 and TA2.400 Sky High and KNU wiring 3 Banks of Maxwell caps Winston Lithium (not a fan) Bump4Life 250 Amp Alt. aka USAlternators Soundstream Focus and Avenger Build Log Instagram @p4linnovation YouTube: Team Blowin Loud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
