What's up ya'll, I'm Joe from Austin.

Been lurking around here for a while, I think it's time for me to go ahead and make an account. I'm starting a build on my '00 silverado. I'm going for the "factory as possible" setup. No speakers in the dash, screens, etc. Just some good sounds. I'm a college student, so I say that now. I may go all out some day in a tahoe, the truck just isn't that vehicle for me.

Getting 2 SQhds310's on a 1500.1 amp.

Building a custom enclosure for under the seat with MDF and aero ports.

Lots more to come, just figured I'd start a build thread for ya'll to see what I'm doing!

Lifted the seat 2.5" with some 11 gauge square tube to give myself more room. Extended rear seat bracket 3" to accommodate height. Should get ~1.25 cubes net per sub. Ran some 1/0 from battery to rear and made up my sub grounds. I'll be doing the big 3 next. 200A+ alternator in my future I think, I'm on the factory one right now.

Thanks for checking it out! I'll be updating as I go forwards!

I should mention everything but the head unit I have came with the truck. That box doesn't fit properly, the speakers are horrible, and the amp is decent but weak (Pioneer gm-5300T.) I think the door speakers have been upgraded, I hooked them up to a 50x4 amp and they played MUCH LOUDER than the headunit, crispy clear. I'll get some pictures of them, maybe you guys know what they are. I can't imagine they're factory.

welcome to the forum

I know when I had my 240sx there was a big nissan scene I was into. Are there any meetups in the Austin area for similar people with our bass addiction?

oh yes. Ohhhhh yes. Big show, Heatwave, in late July. HUGE.

and most of Team Sound Pressure Audio is down there. a 150db trunk, a wild ass 6th order expedition, a walled Mercury, several others.

you have a facebook? DFW Quality Car Audio is a good place to start, most of the Austin guys are in there. and I Just Wanna Bang! is good to, full of fucking idiots but will point you in some good directions.

Oh yeah I know about Heatwave. I judged for them for a couple years along with the mean streets meets in Austin. It's a sick car show, no doubt the biggest one in Austin. Yeah I have a facebook, I'll check them out. 99% of forums are filled with idiots, the other 1% is me talking to myself. (SMD is a wealth of knowledge and I'm a novice, I'm referring to other forums)
