Hey, sorry to necro this again, but a few people went unanswered who wanted one. I saved mine made from lofty before my 33 went to the wreckers. If anyone in WA wants to buy mine they are welcome to make an offer. Doesn't do me any good in the V35 (like I don't have boot space to spear :P).

Just like I said to begin with, and anyone who snapped one up, they are awesome. Save space and fit/look great.

Im just about done making my Carbon Fibre Bandpass box for 2 12" to fit under the rear parcel shelf of a R34 GTT but had some built similar to these before, didnt have enough bass hit for me..lol going for extreme hit with minimal space consumed

the new box is pretty trick, putting it into the Extreme car show next weekend and running 2 SPL contests over the next month

and will post up the results ....and when I get time to run the Spectral Analyzer in the car before hand.

maybe If I can find a donor car to let me mold a box from I can do R32/33 or what ever pro custom box you wanted ?

Approx what size was the box?

What sort of price would this come in at to mold a box/template for a 33? I've been toying with the idea of getting  molds made up to sit in each corner of the boot but not sure if the box volume will be big enough for deep bass hits.

I design boxes for each woofers specs, not generic ones. generic boxes = generic sound

but when the bass enters the boot and cant escape into the cabin properly the bass is muddled and boomy.

now it hits like a hammer in the back.SPL is way up now too. since being ported thru the seat to the inside of the car.

before you ask I have been doing this for more then 15 years pro.

I can see if I can use a car from the wreckers or one of the local guys car for molds. lots of people want them...lol

      Stupid HICAS Question?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      You won't make it out of your driveway. Both your rear wheels will go in whichever direction they feel. Your Hicas rack or a lockout bar is required to keep your wheels straight.

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      Updating results.  Using ATR45SS-0 model VS UHF57-900. Those two are very different turbos, different wheels sets with different wheel hub profiles but yet with almost identical result. I’m intrigued with both turbos performance. ATR45SS-0 was a 61mm turbo first developed in May 2020, UHF57-900 was a 62mm turbo developed in March 2024 as a powered up alternative of a G30-900. On paper ATR45SS-0 maxed at 563rwkws, while UHF57-900 maxed at 568rwkws. ATR45SS was slightly more responsive with slightly better power band through the mid range.  Road driving ability, ATR45SS-0 had better throttle response, felt more robust under throttle, as it wakes up earlier. I think G series wheel hub design made it to have higher inertia under light throttle. Doing bit more prototype work in the next few weeks, will update result when its back on dyno again. ATR45SS0 Blue, UHF57-900 Red Chequered tuner's Dynapack hub dyno, E85 fuel. Mod list is in video below video_20240604_114214.mp4

      Wastegate Boost Reference For Twin Turbo Rb26 Using Dual Port Gates

      Did you run the power cables for the mac valve to the other side of the car near the fusebox? Utilizing the stock boost controller cables? or did you run new ones?

      Stupid HICAS Question?

      By JeffWithaJ · Posted

      Hey I have a potentially stupid HICAS question 🤣 I'm currently doing a full hicas delete, Power steering pump modified to non hicas, all lines removed from the car along with all electronics. My stupid question is - Do I need a lock out bar? is there any reason why I cant just remove everything from the rear end? I already have a lock out bar but thinking to save a few extra grams I could also get rid of the arms and tie rods as well and just run it with nothing in its place? or would it have a negative effect on handling?
