Posted February 10, 20178 yr Wow!!! Today I received my two 18in Zcons,and I just want to thank SSA !!!!You guys hooked me up with both of my subs with the carbon fiber dust caps and I didn't expect that!!!!!That made my day !!!!!! I was so surprised to see that since I did not order them with that upgrade.I figured maybe that's why I did not get the free To shirt but hey that's way better than a T shirt.You guys make The best subs hands down!!!!I'm going to be proud to be reppin SSA!!!!I will be powering them with the Soundqubed 4.5k which also purchased through SSA!!!Thanks Mark for also getting back to me on you tube with my port questions.He recommended 15.25 cu in per cubic foot.So that's what I 'm among for.As soon as it warms up here in Michigan I will start my build in my Grand Marquis.I will also Post some pics on the forum when I get started.Thanks to Aaron for answering my phone calls and questions on amps as well.You guys are a stand up company!!!!I'm a customer for life!!!

February 10, 20178 yr Author Also the vehicle I will be installing these in my Grand Marquis!!! So far I have also got A 220 amp alternator,I have bought a new pioneer head unit,I have an XS power D 6500, (gonna get 1 more battery),I have Knu konceptz kollesus flex ofc,Og ,and Big 3 and all my fuse block s and battery terminals,and amp inputs are from Toolmaker.I can't wait for this rebuild,I'm taking out my 3 15 in kicker CVR,for the swap of the 2-18 in Zcons.If anyone has any other suggestions for my build please feel free to share.Thanks .
February 10, 20178 yr Admin Hey Brian, I am glad they made it safely. We did run out of the freebie shirts and need to get new ones made asap. Looking forward to your build log.
February 10, 20178 yr Nice choice on woofers. You'll love them. Someone is going too be loud... Waiting for the build pics.
February 11, 20178 yr Author Hey thanks guys for all of your response's,and the welcome to the forum.Well I can't do a wall just yet and I know I will be cutting it close on my trunk but Im pretty sure I will just barely squeeze by on the air space needed ..I have been crunching numbers and I should have roughly 14cu .The trunk of my car is huge but I'm definitely going to use every nook and cranny to make it as big as possible.As soon as it warms up a bit I will strip my whole trunk and start putting in my Second Skin Damplifier Pro down,and run all my wire.I will definitely start a build log so stay tuned guys and appreciate all of you.
February 11, 20178 yr Welcome brian. The zcon 18 was how i got introduced to ssa and years later i still haven't left. Mark and Aaron go above and beyond for their customers and i am proud to be on there forum and talk closely with these guys. Any questions or concerns we are here to help!
February 12, 20178 yr Author Thanks Infinite I will definitely seek advice when needed,and no problem Aaron you guys earned it.
February 12, 20178 yr I've done many designs for people with kicker cvr.....You're gonna crap yourself when you hear what real subs sound like. You are in for a HUGE surprise! Good luck on your install, and post pics! We love pics!
February 13, 20178 yr Author Thanks Jay C 76 , I will definitely post my pics and man I can't wait!!!!!!!That just raised my excitement level to border line heart attack!!!!I'm so unbelievably happy!!!!
February 14, 20178 yr My last couple builds has been with 2 zcon 18s . There some bad ass subs forsure
February 15, 20178 yr Author My trunk is huge I'm going to make sure it is 14 cube tho I think the lowest I'll have will be 10.5-11 cube which I think will work but.I have an 03 Grand Marquis so if you could brake alook at Google of my trunk and tell me for sure what you think.Id appreciate it.Thanks.
February 15, 20178 yr Author I will be taking out my 3 15 s and I'll post a pic to see what everyone on thinks of it empty .And see if they think it will hold the Zcons.Im picturing it like a wall just laying down if that makes sense.
February 15, 20178 yr Author For sure I got 56-58 in wide by 22 in deep,and 20 in tall but how ever there is 2 big pockets on each side of trunk,and the trunk dips down a couple extra inches where the spare tire goes.so I'm hoping those 3 spots will give me the added space I need to get a couple more cubic ft.
February 15, 20178 yr Just did an install in an 03 crown vic and there trunks seem huge but only was able to get around 8 cubes after all dissplacements . But this was able to remove from the trunk though so maybe could have been a little bigger if built in the trunk

February 15, 20178 yr Going to be close with the appropriate amount of port and woofer displacement. Please post some pictures with the trunk panels removed so we can get a better idea of total space. Either way this shall be interesting, good luck.
February 16, 20178 yr Author Will do S.Deyong and thanks for the willingness to help I surely appreciate it.
February 21, 20178 yr Author As soon as the warm weather is here to stay I will take out all my old equipment and take some photos and begin to run wire and ,the I'll be taking like 10 days off work to get the build done so please bare with me and as soon as the warm weather is here to stay in Michigan it's on and I will be looking for suggestions and guidance from you all thanks again everyone.
