I've got a n00bie question. I've currently got a JLw04 sub with a Fusion 1000w amp. I want to get rid of my sub to free up the boot.

Can I get decent bass from rear speakers instead. I am not after loudness anywhere near what the sub can do. I'm just after abit of crisp bass to complement my front speakers.

If I can do this will I still need an amp? Any suggestions on speaker models and amps?

Thanks

i guess a good set of rears speakers will provide some bass, no where near the bass from a sub/amp combo of course. dont get 6x9's. speak to your local car audio shop, if your in melb check out gayrs car radio in preston, good advice they give. maybe ask fhrx (he's on here) he works at an audio shop in nsw (maybe sydney??). ive got 6" alpine coax speakers in my parcel shelf and they sound great, i also have subs however (2 x 12") but if i turn off the subs i still get some good sounding bass

Hey guys, while you cannot achieve bass equal to a full powered sub you can get a fair amount of bass in the car using a few tricks. You can use a high powered set of quality splits at the front and using HEAPS of sound deadening, you can cross the speakers quite low (around 30-50hz). But you'll need serious power to run them this low.

Another option is to run free air subs in the rear shelf. Using specially made spacer plates you can put two infinate baffle 8" where the factory rears usually reside. :cheers:

P.S: I do own Fhrx Studio's which is an Audio shop in Sydney. :D

or you can make a small sub-enclosure and fit it next to the battery.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
