Sub And Amp In Boot Question

[Adz2332]

Hi,

on the weekend im installing my car audio stuff into my new R33. Now this is the first skyline ive owned and the boot isnt very big. i have a rear strut brace in the back to. My question is, what is behind the back boot panel? Is it hollow behing there? If i remove the panel will i be able to make the box sit further back so i dont take up so much boot space or is there something behind there? and i jus plan on working around my strut brace.

thanks

just pull the carpet foward and see 4 ya self..

there is battery on left / hicas unit / some fuses and yeh

only thing you could use the space for is mounting / hiding an amplifier to save space

Here is an example of where we install 10" subwoofers:

If you are in sydney, then i suggest you go to marty.. Whos marty.. well the guy who posted above me lol (FHRX) hhehe..

Anyways if got two 10 inch subs, then you might have some trouble mounting them above the fuel pump..

You will be able to squeeze your amp in there tho!!

Or you can always take your space saver out and you gotyour self more room..

I bought a Jaycar 4ch 100wrms amp to replace my bigger amp, because it fits perfectly in there!

Running one 12" sub in a box on the right-hand side of the boot. Well... the entire right-hand side of the boot really! =-/

Hi guys i have made 2 separate boxes measured up perfect to fit one on the left and one on the right for the 2 12" Subs also got some wood too make it my front wall and the Amp which is pretty big too (Rockford P4004) is drilled to it looks pretty good too, really simple doesn't leave room for anything else thou i may have a photo if you don't know what i am talking about.

I got some info from the thread mentioned above and put my amp over the fuel tank and 12" Sub in the right rear corner, fibreglassed up a seald box for it. Didn't come up too bad and haven't lost much space.

hey man whered you get this custom sub box???

is this a good position to recieve bass in the front cabin..?

are you using 1 of these?

what would happen if you used 2 of these boxes 1 either side... would their be any cancellation or what?

i need these sub boxes!

how does that 1 type s 12 sound?

i am contemplating 1 type r 12 or maybe 2

I don't have any pics, but i have a two amps mounted in that space. I have my 12" Sub in a separate box in the boot... lol i stapled Velcro onto the bottom of the box and it just sticks to the carpet in the boot (which is glues + stapled to the board thing that covers the space-saver) and stops it sliding around.

[DaGr81]

got 1 x pioneer 12inch + 1 x pioneer 800w amp... threw the space saver away amp gets mounted on some wood and cut to a circular shape (so it sits perfectly at the bottom of the spare wheel well) and thrown in there then the carpet crap that covers that goes on top then sub in middle
