  1. Sorry for the hold up everyone. I've been waiting to get ahold of a router. I should have one on Friday. And I've been waiting for more money to come in because I need my back window tinted before the box gets put in.
  2. I ment 32-33. I need to round some edges on my port pieces before I can build the box.
  3. That's what I got. I figured out what it is. 40.5 wide 3 inches tall and I have 21.5" long. So it should sound good. Right around 32-34
  4. This will be sweet when its done. You should post a video once your done.
  5. My cubic feet is is 9.2 after displacement. The port will get me down the 8 cubes area I need
  6. Ok, so the biggest problem I face right now is port length, Im getting mixed answers from everything I do, my port is 40.5 Inches wide by 3 inches tall, how long should my port be for say 32-33hz? or should I tune it differently and what would would the port length and frequency be if so? I need an answer pretty quick because the box is going together this week.
  7. Ok I got an update, I got the false floor in today with my friend. I used my brackets and a hell of alot of sticky foam stuff. I took lots of pictures for you guys here on ssa. Messing around with the foam
  8. Dude! It's lowered 2.5 inches! The 6th gem accords have HUGE gaps. Once all the soundsyatem is in it will lower the back 1 inch more so it will be a 3.5" drop. I'll then cut 1 coil out my ebiach springs Wich will do nothing to the handleing. And i dont care as much about handle. My car is slow with all the weight
  9. I got caught up doing stuff. I'll post the pics tonight when I get home. But I'm going to install the false floor tomorrow first thing. Do you guys know where to get expanding foam? Any hardware store?
  10. Haha I just realized I sounded dumb saying people are dumb by saying thinks in that sentence lol. Well anyway I just got all the wood cut, false floor and the baffle. I'll post pics when I get home
  11. Ya true I tell people I have FI and their like wtf is that. So I tell them it's American made is las Vegas and they are like bull crap then they hear it and are like WOOOOW. it's funny. I dont think I'll do the sticker. People are dumb and will thinks it's like F U. Ill be cutting the sub baffle and the false floor in about an hour.
  12. Ok so what I achieved today was getting my 2 front windows tinted. I attempted to tint the back window and it was so frustrating I ripped it all off, wadded it up and through it against the wall, so that tint was a waste of money, so now I need a pro to do it. But I think for being 17 and my first time ever doing tint I did a pretty good job (only a few tiny bubbles). I went to home depot and go some brackets and self tapping screws to screw them to my car, the false floor will be screwed to the brackets and I can bend the brackets to whatever height I need. Tommorow I will be cutting out the false floor and the holes for the sub in the baffle. my headlights Brackets for sub box, this is the shape I was talking about
  13. Ya I'm debating the sticker thing. My car is pretty clean. A sticker could make it look bad. I might do like 1 small one.
  14. 209native. I'm in Olympia
  15. 209native Ive talked to the local audio shops and they never see any comps around here but they all have term labs and they want to use them. I'm going to get metered when my wall is complete. A few of my friends want to make a car audio club sometime. Jay-cee I was thinking that but in my area theft isn't a big deal. I parked my car in my garage and whereever I go it's useually under cameras and im not away from my car for more than 3 hours. If I where in Tacoma I wouldn't but I'm in a pretty decent community.
  16. My plan is to get metal brackets which I'll get today and take pics. And screw those to the "humps" the high parts of the metal because the gas tank doesn't go up into the hump. Then I will screw the wood to those brackets (and the brackets can be bent so i can make the floor level). Then for for more support/bracing and sound deadening I'll spray hardening foam under nieth the flase floor and above the metal and that will stick together and stop some rattles. I will be cutting the false floor tomorrow.
  17. dont go with the Hfi line of hifonics....only Brutus or go with goliath... or maxximus Ya, thats what im going to get
  18. I know man! Every thing dark then boom FI right in the middle, I think im going to get a big FI logo for my back window what do you guys think YES or NO?
  19. Im thinking about another Hifonics, one 2500 watt mono block, because they are cheap and are pretty good amps
  20. Haha ya I know its sorta ricey, the lambo doors complete the ricer effect, but believe me its not even close to bad around here, either everyone has a crappy yota or a primer civic with a bunch of sticks and body ktis. Like I said before I paid 150 for the lambo doors so i saved almost $1800. The only reason why I keep the lambo doors is because old ladys keep asking about my delorean lol.
  21. Heres my sub now in the custom sealed box I made, Its around 2.5-3 cubes, Its a big box but it sound soooo good in it! And other random pics. Super Direct connect, I just drilled holes and ran the wire straight from the sub to the amp, no connectors for the box I have now Amps Head unit First sound system, old school soundstream reference 10s Sub now BIG sealed box
  22. Oh and there is no competitions around where I live, I live in Washington State. I wish there was competitions Id be there every time.
  23. At first I didnt like the color of my car but I spent alllllll day detailing the hell out of it and it looks nice! The lambo doors I got for a steal $150 brand new off craigslist and I installed them myself (thats the only reason I got them) I have the typical ebay intake, lowered on Ebiach sportlines in the front, no lowering in the back because system weight= 2 inch drop. All my mods I do myself because shops want an arm and a leg. Its a daily driver, I already have 1 Q 15 in the trunk sealed, its loudest system in my town, Im ordering another sub once I get $100 more. The box will be tuned to 33 hz, all ive heard is that this sub performs wayyy better in a ported enclosure so I cant wait to have both subs going!! The amps are the 2 older silver Hifonics amps they are bridged and running around 3 ohms, i got dual 2 with is 1.4 a coil. I think im running around 800rms not sure tho, I cant find specs for these amps. The second Hifonics amp isnt hooked up yet. The big old school 4 channel Soundstream amp is running all my doors and tweeters, all JL idk which ones I forgot. Ill post ALOT more pics of my stuff tomorrow after school, I want to do the big 3 sometime soon also. But my biggest obstical is how to secure the false floor to the car? I was thinking using the brackets with sheet metal screws and then in between the false floor and the cars floor I would use sticky foam and spray a bunch of that under it for more secure-ness (I dont think thats a word) and again im 17 so I think im doing pretty good, im not some idiot teen kid.
