Here are some pics of my install ive been working on this weekend. good way to kill a bit of time. I just need to carpet it all. the gaps where the gas struts and hinges are wont be visible when the carpet is done

Do 34's have a strut brace, or is it just 33's?

[DECIM8]

33s only in the rear .. some 34s came with them, but we have one in the engine bay.

Looks really good man, pitty I could never even dream of doing that. what you get for buying a huge F.O sub.. Just a tip remove the back seat then remove the metal sheet bolted to the back of the boot, it lets sound travel better in the car and will remove the vibration of it.

what metal sheet is this mate???, im thinking of doing this in my r33?how big is this metal sheet?

[Muges180]

yeah the metal sheet Decim8's talking about is in all 32s, 33s and 34s, it's held in by about 8x 10mm threaded bolts, makes a huge difference once you pull it out

I don't think it really serves a purpose other than being the rear firewall, which i guess helps stop flames if your fuel tank explodes for long enough for you to get out. not that it really matters though...once your cars on fire you are F**ked anyway

[Muges180]

aah well mines coming out then. weight reductuion stage 1 lol

[Trent04]

good progress man, dont forget to post pics when shes finished

[Jimmyr33]

nice work. that should look mint... ill give some advice, if you want carpet, bunnings has heaps of different shades and really cheap like $10 a meter and its like 1.2 m wide!!!!!

hahahahaha, good call. I love it when dude sacrifice a spare wheel for tunes. Commitment all the way!

[nsta]

funny you say that, i sacrifised a spare for my sounds, but i could have had both in thier, but i didnt due to my sub/amp combo being as heavy as my spare(pretty much the same weight), so i thought one wouldve had to go ha ha.Besides, i tried using my spare once, and trust me, it didnt seem safe at all.!
