mazdaspl Posted November 29, 2010 Author Report Posted November 29, 2010 thats alot of weight for that little truck Im going to redo my rear leafs with some off a full size Dude get this thing going i want to see this turn out so bad I know that the weight is going to suck for it.. Good thing this is not my daily driver, just my play toy.. I would love to be starting it now, but funds are tight like all of us know...I will be buying the wood soon just to have it here.. I'm thinking of birch over mdf.. If funds are short then MDF which is why i use mdf. little funds i've been waiting months to recone my sub so i can start my rebuild and then buy the wood for it too.. also looking at your design I dno if your going to need the tubes in the center. Ive seen in others builds that it actually lost some score for them I know every build if different but just saying what i've seen and read Well where i live there is only about a $10 difference in price between the 2... as for the tubes, im going to be using allthread anyways to help airflow the best i can..

mazdaspl Posted January 23, 2011 Author Report Posted January 23, 2011 Just updating alittle.. Had to go back and do a redesign cause of some mismeasurements.. Been getting great help from Brian (Sanitarium).. Let me know what you guys think of it so far.. still not done, working it all out so its done right..
CJ18 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 This looks like it is gonna do some serious work!!! I like the sound of some cheap subs too! You can always upgrade later if you want to.

You can always upgrade later if you want to. I hope so. .I know its going to take me awhile get done, but it will be worth it.. On the cheap subs, i know i want the Sa 12's but if i have to use the alpines for awhile it will be fine..
