Minimum trunk dimensions needed for 3.75 cubes


Recommended Posts

As you all know, i am looking into getting these cars, acura tl, acura integra hatch, buick regal, infiniti q45, infiniti i30, lexus GS300, lexus ES300, Mitsubishi Eclipse Hatch, Nissan Maxima, Oldsmobile Intrigue 3800 Series II, Toyota Camry. But the one I would want the most is a honda civic, except i am not sure if i can fit a 15" btl in there. Maybe if I did a sub up/port back. Below are pics and dimensions. If someone can help me out with a design for 3.75 cubes at 34 hz, thatll be great. If anyone knows what can fit in a honda civic, let me know. I want my back seats, so i dont want to wall it. But just to give an idea of size, my friend's 2 sony xplod 12's sealed took up almost the entire width of trunk, maybe leaving 2 inches on each side to spare. If this doesnt work, im just going to get any of the other cars above because it will fit.

With the dimensions you gave, you can only get 2.5 cubes of space and you would have to build the box inside the trunk.

Edit: I noticed you said the OPENING depth is 8". Can you get the overall depth of the trunk?

Depending on your port design, location, etc., you need a minimum depth of 15.5 inches.

Did you subtract the wood thickness. I got 2.5 cubes before wood displacement and 1.75 after .75" MDF Wood displacement

Crap, forgot about the wood thickness. Let me fix my post.

sub up port back is the easiest way to fit a 15 or 18 in a civic.

if you really are trying to squeeze every cubic foot possible out of your trunk, you will probably need to build the box INTO the trunk.

but since you're curious, heres the deminsions on my old 15" box for my civic:

h-13.5

w-31.5

d-25

the port on mine was 22.5 inches long by 6 inches wide.

i believe that the box was 3.5CU after displacement and was tuned to 37hrz (was for a dc level 4)

Read my first post above. I used 36 inches wide by 15 inches high to obtain the third dimension (depth).

Doing so won't allow you to use the port up.

Do a Fiberglass/MDF Box FTW!

I did it for my first time. It's not as hard as people say it is. Just need patience and work in small amounts quickly. Then wrap it in carpet so you wouldn't need to do too much on the box cosmetically.
