i have been thinking about this for a while. Whats it called when the back seats are removed and replaced with a fibreglass moulding which is thin fitted out with speakers decks screens and etc.

Has anybody done this themselves? As i am going to look at doing it myself just want some information.

Also sometimes you see subs with the magnet side pointing out. Whats that for.

Cheers

You mean "inverting" subwoofers (showing the magnet). Doing that is mostly for looks. You may be able to make a slightly smaller box since the woofer doesn't take up any space inside the box.

Post up some more details of what your planning. I would advise caution when undertaking such a project. Unless you know what you are doing you may end up out of your depth. Also keep in mind it sounds like your car will be defect after the mod. That would really only matter if you actually cared :laugh:

im not saying im going to just want to see what everyone else thinks before i decide if i will go through with it or not.

What i was thinking is sort of make a ply wood shell for the back get a few subs speakers a screen and some amps all cut into it and mounted then pull it out and make a fibreglass shell with the specifications which the ply wood will have then put the fibreglass shell in and leave out the fibreglass.

Would i need duel batteries for this also

Hey Mate,

Post #53, half way down page 3. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Au....html&st=40

This is my setup, mdf, fibreglass, months of hard work, wouldn't change it for a second, i love it!

Also I have heaps of pics of stages as well, let me know what you want to know.

As for your battery question, i started to have lots of problems so if you keep reading down the thread you'll see information from me and doof about our larger and more suitable battery. Also, i even put in a kill switch to my equipment cause the car's a weekender and sometimes i dont drive it for a week or two, so to avoid the battery dying i did this:http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Op...35#entry4019235

Hope some of this helps, lemme know if you have any questions or want to see more pics of progress work.

cheers,

shanus

      Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?

      Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.

      Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you?

      I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.

      Infiniti Q60 Navigation Update

      Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
