Shok Industries Competition SQ car build ( rebuild)

[treossi]

those are deff some nice a pillars

[headshok]

why what re the best speakers you've heard?

best SQ spkrs = micro precision Z series 3 way. crazy spkrs, but not practical cos they are too fragile, ie they break easily

best value for money : Scanspeak revelators, i love the tweeters

best tweeters : Dynaudio Esotar tweeters ( the old ones), got them in my ride, best ever!

Scanspeak FTW!

Hi all,

Hope everyone had a good weekend 

Anyway, the car’s almost complete and we are beginning tuning of the system. This system is proving to be quite challenging.

The test car we had this setup on used a Clarion D2 ( 9255 for the US folks). Now we have it on the #F1 and it’s a different beast.

We got the A pillars in.

Here’s some close up shots of the mid range, EB tec LS 130

speakers in

Here’s a shot of the little 8” sub in the front.. heheh.

and here’s a nice little logo done 

Now we actually hit a little snag along the way and are re-doing part of the layout.

Problem was the colour scheme, it is TOO RED! It looked like vegas when we open the trunk at nite.

So well, some things gotta change. Look out for it.

Cheers!

Hi all,

Well, we just got a new jack for the car.. hahaha.. pretty cool colour too!

Anyway, bad thing about the Fiat Bravo is that the dam alternator is under the car and we have to jack up the car to gain access to it.

Engine bay shot

jacked up the car

preparing the cable

and there we go

As you all know, we had some problems with the colours, well, here are some of the things we’ll be changing.

This has to go

though the design is cool, think there’s too much red, we didn’t expect it to be too dam red!

But I do like these pics..

hahahaa..

well. This will be the few red parts that will be staying

the woofer ring red will be GONE! Hahaha..

plus some things changed along the way.. so stay tuned!

Hi all,

After all that red, we added a little something to make things better.

Got a big sheet of aluminium

tadaaa

a little wiring for to power inverter

well, the screen over there is a little monitor with a SD card reader  heheh..

also some changes over on the fuse holder side

from the overly red

to something more simple

we’ve been doing tuning, will post up some videos soon 

Cheers all

Hey all,

Hope everyone has a good weekend.

Car is actually more or less done, now just for some minor changes to certain parts.

Anyway, funny thing though is that, we just found out our tweeter had a problem.

The tweeter was rolling off pretty early and we had them swapped out to a new pair. Now just have to run in the speakers again.

The guys from STP ( for those who don’t know, this is a sound proofing brand that originates from Russia) and had a look at the system. They’ll be coming down again this Thursday, will get some pictures 

Anyway, here’s some pics for you guys.

For the side that is directly opposite the fuse holders,

Anyway, as you all know, we’ve playing around with some sheet aluminum.

First we have the front

a test fit

pretty obvious what’s going in that space above the logo..

some acrylic

and tadaa

the end product

the back

That’s all for today.. stay tuned for more

Cheers!
