CH@Dbee Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 hey whats up guys, i didnt see an intro section so this is going to my intro/showoff/build thread haha uh...my name is chad and i am a professional photographer. i mostly shoot nice high HP imports and domestics. i live in the suburbs of Atlanta and i am in the process of doing the audio build in the car i picked up a few months ago....i call it the viberator lol it has taken a few months but i wanted to do it right and i had a hard time deciding what i wanted and sticking with it lol a few months back i picked up my new to me 2003 Pontiac Vibe GT. a little info on these cars for people not in the know....this car is a joint project between Pontiac and Toyota. its a Corolla platform with the 180HP variable valve timing 1.8L motor and 6 speed manual transmission from the Celica GT-S. i bought the closest one to me that was for sale and wasnt junky and had to make a 8 hour round trip to get it. not very common cars(unlike the base models that have the 130HP motor and 5 spd transmission....those are everywhere)....here is the viberator.... now on to the audio build portion....the car came with a Pioneer FH-B8000BT and JL Audio Co-ax's. the plan for the build is something that is decently loud but sounds very good. not worried about what it does on the meter or looking to win any SQ comps. i just want a well rounded audio set-up that sounds great listening to rage against the machine or pastor troy and hits HARD when i want it to. at first i decided i wanted cone area, and i wanted "small" subs so i got 4 T3 Audio T.400 10" subs.... i also got 2 sets of T3 Audio 6.5" component sets for the front and rear doors(not pictured...yet) after having a talk with my friend and box builder kevin aka AV8ter, i decided to go with a different sub set up for two reasons.... 1-making four 10's fit in the back of the vibe wasnt going to be a clean install, it would just look "awkward" because of the way they would have to be staggered in the enclosure. 2-carbon weave cones are sooooo sexy OMG SKEET SKEET SKEET so i put the T400 10's up for sale....sold two of them still got two left....hit me up if ya want them hahhaa and picked up a T3 Audio T2000 15" with the black carbon cone....at this time i also got a couple amps, one of a kind amps...only ones in the world right now. a T3 Audio TX-125.4 for the components and a T3 Audio TX-1100.1D for the sub.... generic photo of the sub: generic photo of the components: the 1100D is not in the picture cause i do not physically have it, it was being worked on. unfortunately the repair is taking longer than was originally thought it would...plus im going to be nice and let JD(the owner of T3) run the TX-125.4 in his company demo vehicle. im losing some very cool amps but its all good cause the TX-1100D was kinda weak for a T2000 woofer. thanks for having me here guys and stay tuned cause lots of goodies are currently in transit and the enclosure is being designed. hoping to have everything installed and done within the next couple weeks 2003 Frosty White Pontiac Vibe GT AKA The Viberator XS Power D5100R | Knukonceptz Kolossus 1/0 Big 3 | Knukonceptz Kolossus 1/0 and 4 Gauge | Knukonceptz Krystal Kable RCA's Pioneer FH-B8000BT | T3 Audio 6.5" Components Front and Rear | T3 Audio T.2000 18" | AMI Creations Birch Enclosure Tuned to 34HZ MB Quart DSC 125.4 Amp | MB Quart DSC 2000.1 Amp | Second Skin Damplifier Pro www.chadbeephotography.com | Automotive Photography Website and Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
