I wasn't after anything flashy and wanted to keep some usable boot space so I fibreglassed up a box and mounted the amp next to the fuesbox and battery. Really need to retrim the rest of the boot though now as the subbox puts the rest of the trim to shame :happy:

This probably won't help you much as you have 2 subs and amps but you never know.

Im from Bendigo (in central Vic)

actually ordered my stuff through autobarn. tryed a couple of other local audio places and was disapointed with their service. so i took a list of my quotes in and said beat it. about 30 minutes of going through catalogues and a few diff quote options later my choice was made. The Pioneer dvd player and the DD 4 channel amp had arrived last time i went in. just awaitin the rest. haha so impatient.

moved my batt to the side walls, mounted the hicas ecu to the side of the sub box, moved fuse box to a better fixed point behind amp but next to hicas ecu and done. box made to suit, if u want 1 done i can help y out if u in melb. any questions just ask.

oh forgot to mention, 10" sub pretty much is the only one that will fit this way, 12 is a real squeeze and will require more work.

pm me if u have q's or want a hand

Is there any chance of mounting the subwoofer down into the spare tire hold and inverting the spare tire and using a small raiser to fit a lower profile 12 inch? IMO you cant beat using a sub box that is properly ported for the sub itself, but I do fancy the Idea of having the sub mounted on the floor side of the boot.

Here's what i did in mine, used the tyre well as an enclosure for the subs... its good this way coz u still keep your boot space...

The PDX digital amps are awesome...very compact and pump out some very good power and can be stacked to reduce space used (depending on your install). Had it shown at the F1 and cranked it a bit too much...blew the fuse, so now have no power to the cap and amps >_< gonna replace the fuse over the weekend.

    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
