I'm about to install my sub/subs into the 34 when I've found a suitable amp and i'm tossing up a few options. I can install 1 or 2 10" subs and i'm looking for the most space saving install as I use the boot for groceries etc. One possibility I was tossing up was installing the two, one on either side of the boot in those "pocket-type' areas. Anyone willing to share pics of their setups so I can get some more ideas. I was also wondering if anyone was able to tell me what an approximate 'fabrication cost' would be for the setup i suggested done professionally?

Cheers

Yvonne

you can get premanufactured sub boxes that are moulded to the left corner of the r34 boot. when ive got the money together to get a decent sub and amp ill be getting one. they're about $300ish for a 12" sub. probly much the same cost for 10" maybe a bit less.

Any idea who makes these? Can you get them fir the right side too? ...*thinking* ... Would be a nice alternative to the big 2 x 12" sub box i have now ..

Ive been quoted them from Maroochy Car Sound and Sound In Motion here on the sunshine coast. They are only moulded for left side. i guess something to do with it being in the way of things on the right side. Ive seen one moulded for a 33 and they take up fark all space.

Plenty of boot room but you cant exactly use it without something possibly poking through the sub! Needs a sub cover/grill to protect it then the boot room would be usable :)

there is a fellow on the GC that makes them for wholesale to shops. I can get hem as well but I'm not sure if he does a 34 though.

Reckon he would do a group buy on them?

Say 10 of each, r32 r33 r34?

Id be VERY keen depending on price

hey guys

here is my sub install. has plenty of room in the boot for other shit. i havent yet finished it. still needs the false floor made up and side closure panels to complete the sub facia.

cmplex design on the box, has a L shaped box with curved in sides. sounds good, specs say 1.25sq ft for the proper sealed box, mine is about 1.10sqft. little under size but not noticeable.

will post more pics once i complete it this weekend or mid net week

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 馃槀 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
