Awesome man! I've also got an 01 zx3. did you meter to figure out whether it was louder facing up or facing rear? or are you going that way because thats what fits? either way, looks great!

I heard that for that car, sub up port facing front driver side was one of the better test so far; even facing the port back may gain alittle more but I wanted to keep the back seats in for any extra passengers or groceries, plus I like the look, so I've decided on sub up port up, hoping to get at least a 145.0db

sweet sweet! Let me know how it turns out. I'm gonna be doing some testing on mine to see which is loudest.

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.

I've done both port back and port up. To the east port up was louder and played the lows a bit better imo. Never got the port up setup metered though.

I've read and been told port towards driver wheel well is best for spl in these cars.

I believe you can break a 145. I was just above 143 with 2 12s on 1500 and just under 143 with 1 15 on 1500. Both numbers were without my ho alt as it was being checked over by singer because I was having some issues. Only had a stock battery and 10 fared RF cap (helped keep voltage up a bit at the amp).

When you do the alt a second hand can help but isn't needed.

singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

Nice build! I have done sub and port both up in the same car before and the best score I got before I changed boxes was a 145.7, with 2 Nightshade 12's and a Crunch GP3000D. Once I changed boxes and went from a slot port to aeroport and did woofers up and port back the score jumped to a 147.8 with no other changes. I still think it will be loud the way you are doing it and for the space that you have it is probably the best configuration to go with and still be able to fit everything.
