Carbon 34

here is a cat converted ..lol dont punch your CAT, its highly illegal !!! and SAU doesn't condone illegal activities??? do it right and buy a EPA/ADR approved one

side trims remove the seats first of course a gentle even tug will reveal , they pop off in your hands, go slow and work around the edges, snaps back in with a light tap with your palm . can't remember if you have to take out the seat belt bolt or not but you will see it if you do?

I think if you have the money and want some serious bass, take a look at this test you can see all the favorites fail ...lol doesnt mean there bad but if you want incredible take a look..lol http://www.orioncaraudio.com/Promos/HCCA_C...ge_Results.aspx Orion has made some of the best woofers around for the price for a long long time? even the lower cost ones are great and take smaller boxes then most others ???

Digital designs sound off car , using 8" woofers in tubes

damn double post,, grrrr

can I offer some visual tips Cara, dont shoot me for this...lol but the mounting tabs/screw heads on the amps are ugly, and should be mounted under the amp or a floating look to enhance the lighting for shows, a persplex mount under the amps to grab the light from the LED's above ? sorry I know you just had it done... it still looks better by a 1000% Cara is that a port with the mesh on it? that would be the problem or part of it. for the sub flutter. can I ask why they didnt use a sealed box sub ? and sealed up the spare tire well?

FYI, two 12" will fit hidden behind the panels in a R34 GTT. in fiberglass boxes. I have 1 there now but room on both sides two 15" will fit if you dont want a boot anymore same for 18, plus the car will self destruct from vibrations,, along with the all the birds in the trees and kids on bikes .lol a well designed system is better then just generic parts tossed in and hope it sounds good. a single 10 can rip your head off if done right? ??? Im not a huge fan of 12's but for some reason oz had that as a standard rather then 10 or 15 ? along with the dreaded 6x9's. yes I know jack88 my car has a 12 but only because its a left over from my old car....so dont start..lol in the next incarnation its going to be a 10 or 2 digital design 8 inchers in a single reflex carbon fiber box. ported thru the rear deck the higher the sensitivity in DB to start with the less power it will take to get loud, every 3 db is around 2 to 3 times the power level to increase the sound output so a 89db woofer will need more power then a 91db woofer to reach 120db. but there is a lot of other things to consider. the box design, a sealed box isnt as the best but will control a woofer up to its tuned freq before distoration. and sounds smoother most of the time. at a lower cost to construct then a bandpass box. so many varables to deal with for a pro system rather then writing all this out for you, have a read here? http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/boxes.asp if you need help just pm me. figure out your budget and if your a brand loyalist we can go from there ? cheers Troy

looks better now Cara, with two amps..lol, and great choice of equipment!!!. hope you sorted the free air sub out, it was too loose in the sound off a few weeks ago. the baffle isnt right and needs to be sealed up better to control of the cone? a few simple and cheap tricks to make the woofer think it has a bigger box(tire well) and make it sound smoother hit harder?? Chris Rodgers and I are old installers ..lol, not just opening my mouth to waffle on.. so if you need help , you have my phone number. otherwise it looks nice much better then the old box hey!!!

Depends on your end goal, I have a 1200 Odessy, the CCA is worthless here in OZ, its a value based upon cold cranking amps, only good to know when it s below freezing. but more is better. I'm not sure why but oz has outdated batteries floating around in cars, the kind that still take water? until moving here I havent seen one for at least 10 years. crap!!!, the odessey batteries are dry and can be mounted upside down it you wanted too? http://www.odysseybatteries.com/battery/pc1200series.htm PC 1200 Specs: 1200 cranking amps for 5 seconds 1090 cranking amps for 10 seconds 900 cranking amps for 20 seconds 825 cranking amps for 30 seconds Short circuit current over 2600A 44 amp hours 78 minute reserve capacity with 25amp load CCA - 550 (Is this important?) But I have had better luck with these batteries, http://www.optimabatteries.com.au/Products/OptimaRedTop.aspx had the same battery for 11 years in my RX7 and VR4 with massive sound systems in them,, never failed the odessey I have has failed once , had a dead cell when it was in my crappo commo with a big system. think it might have been a alternator failure that caused it. these are best as long as you dont sit in the park for hours pounding bass, if so then you need to look at a deepcycle maybe, but then you need to drive a lot to charge it back up????? but these batteries can be expensive, 200 or more but well worth it ,, and dont mix gold connections to lead posts if you can help it, corrosion is faster then normal once scratched. I chopped off the old nissan connections and put in some decent ones. and run another ground wire to the bracket of the alternator or engine and one thick one to the fender, not a painted part, this will improve power and helps misfires too. hope this helps
