Sackcheese Posted May 9, 2015 Report Posted May 9, 2015 does anyone know the hole centers on the fi q 18 ... The cutout is 16-3/4 and the od is 18-1/2 ...17-5/8" is the center of the two but surely that can't b where the bolt holes are! I'm awaiting 2 q 18"s and am at the final step on the enclosure "doubble baffel" and would like to get the t nuts ready for the subs. If anyone has the dimensions of the bolt hole pattern is surely like them... Or I'll just have to wait till they get here I've been waiting on em for 4 weeks now lmao I'm very impatient
Jessica Posted May 9, 2015 Report Posted May 9, 2015 i would wait. You never know if one hole may be drilled a bit off center or something.

bcbrassard Posted May 9, 2015 Report Posted May 9, 2015 Yes simplest thing to do install subs into box and mark holes or drill through and enlarge after removing subs. Dont get a head of your self or you might make a mistake. Not worth doing IMO.
Sackcheese Posted May 9, 2015 Author Report Posted May 9, 2015 ?yea I suppose I've waited for them this long,I may as well wait to finish the box also. It's not a major step... But if one is a bit off then I'll b pissed at myself for not waiting?
bcbrassard Posted May 9, 2015 Report Posted May 9, 2015 Ya its way worth it to wait. Glued my T nuts in as and tightened the screws down 2 weeks ago to hold T-nuts in and have touch enclosure since. But i have a slow rebuild going and been working to many hours lately to put in much time.
Jessica Posted May 9, 2015 Report Posted May 9, 2015 good luck with the t-nuts. Hope they work well for you. have heard many horror stories about them. Got any pics of the enclosure?

Sackcheese Posted May 10, 2015 Author Report Posted May 10, 2015 maby I'll post a few when it's finished and in my Murano. I may not even need tnuts I'm using birch not mdf cuz it's lighter, maby it's overkill but I'm coming from a single re xxx 12 to 2 fi q 18"s, and I just feel better about having bolts vs wood screws ? ...and glueing the t nuts is a really good idea lol maby ill locktite the bolts too! Because Lordy if one of those came loose it may b a disaster it it were to fall into the wrong place
bcbrassard Posted May 10, 2015 Report Posted May 10, 2015 nice, like what you did with the port. Thanks, box was built last spring, wish i would have put the T-nuts in there. I thought i would never remove subs but have a couple times now so T-nuts just seem like the next best step. And gluing then in made sense to me. Building a enclosure for the wifes Malibu and plan to use them there too. Be a 2013 T1D412 on a RF power 1000a1 in a Joe X design. Should slam hard.
