    I also have an old school MTX thunder 2300 I would be willing to trade off. It has two broken mounting feet, but if need be I could make some out of aluminum. Would make all four to make sure they match of course.

    Also Here is the pictures of the nightshades. One is pictured with 18" 6 spoke basket. Other is built as a 12" with zv3 drop in, and NSv3 spider pack.

    Nice. Can't wait for my Son to get older so I can teach him how to work on cars and build things with his hands.

    Thank you and it is fun teaching kids fun stuff. smile.png

    I designed and was in the process of building him a shelf for all his puzzles, books and hot wheels today. Wishing he was about 10 years older so I could teach him how. He still does what he can with me though. I try to teach him quite a bit.

     

    Don't wish those years away too fast because before you know it they are 18 and moving out.

    Yes, I am finding this out quickly too. He is almost 3 already, with another one due in May. It seems like just yesterday my dad was teaching me everything I know.

    Like the Title says, I am looking for XCON motors...

     

    I have 2 Sundown Nightshade V1 motors for trade. 1 is built as a 12" with Dual 2 ohm ZV3 drop in and Nightshade v3 spiders. I have 12" 15" and 18" basket i can send with the motor only sub.

     

    The built nightshade has some scuff marks on the surround. Does not affect the performance of the speaker at all. Cosmetic only. Both motors have the aluminum pole plug, also both motors are in great shape.

     

    I will post pictures first thing in the morning. ( I know its annoying, but i didn't have time to dig them out today and wanted to get this posted.)

     

    Thanks for looking!!thanx.gif

    I have 5 days off of work next week with nothing to do, so i might start on my door panels. I am going to mount the 8's in the doors and the horns in the center console. That seems to be the most effective way for me to mount them and get the most out of the horns with out tthem being extremely to harsh.

    Can't really tell if it would be easier compared to only wood, but I know one three things for sure. It's going to be lighter, stronger and cheaper this way. Which I am all in for since the plan is have a somewhat lightweight car with a loud system, and later on, when I swap a more powerful engine, the system won't be a draw back.

     

    The cage you guys see is removable, right now it's out of the car and I've started cutting the wood.

    Those are the three things I need in my build. I think I built my wall pretty strong, but I would have been much happier with a weld over some polyurethane adhesive and screws/bolts.

    I do believe 8-15's on 8k in a c-pillar wall should be able to make a lil noise wink.png

    The current plan is to use Shok Industries Tritons & Taramps amplifiers for everything, including front stage. I don't plan to really compete much, if at all. The goal is to be able & demo while maintaining seating in the back. I should be able to start making purchases in Jan & begin actually building late Feb/early March once the tax return hits my bank. A couple more XS Power XP3000's & some more wiring are definitely coming, along with possibly another HO alt smile.png

    Hell Yea!!! I can't wait to see you're build unfold.

    Also wanted to note that I love the Diablo blades. They cut much nicer and last much longer than most other blades I have used.

    They will be mounted on some 1" plexi that will be milled out aswell and maybe attempt to do a logo in it or something.. We will see how it actually turns out, if i don't like it in the end I may just scrap it all and buy some. All though I did this to save some money. (the aluminum used is curtosy of my brother Chop)

    I have been in the process of making my own fuse blocks at work here lately. If I get a chance today i will upload some pics. I started them out of a chunk of aluminum the I got from chop.  Then milled them down the the desired measuments now have to drill and tap them for the fuses and 0 gauge.
