well yeah,

ive been putting some money away every week just bit by bit to get a set of courner sub box's molded to fit a R33.

The time had come to go on ebay and purchase them, but unfortunatly Seductive sounds has no items for sale anymore, it seems they have taken down everything. Then my search started to see if there was a guide to make my own or anywhere else that i could get them from, and well it was a useless search full of useless results.

Any help would be awesome guys :)

If you want some seductive sounds just install a plumb-back BOV, 3" exhaust with a muffler and remove your sound deadening and stereo.

RB engines have such a good sound to them :)

Edit: but to answer your question; I'm searching for a guide I saw once upon a time which had a really good DIY for a sub box..

If you're willing to pay, I have a friend who might be interested in doing it.

RB's have a good sound to them when theres a turbo bolted on to the side of them, but problem is i dont have one :(

I thought you didn't.. but your avatar suggests otherwise. haha that looks like the standard metal intake pipe running across the head. Guess I'm wrong though. ><

Haha you haven't heard my baby :) She sounds great (other than that N/A rattle ><)

Still searching.... * not too long later * okay I'm about to pass out from heat exhaustion.

I can't find the tucked-in solution (the fibre glass one, for instance). But I know my 10" sub box fits neatly into the side of my boot, and if I were to hack up some wooden thing in the rear it could look flush.

But that's heavy.. you don't want heavy in an N/A.. remind me tomorrow and I'll find out how to do it.

hahaha dp is my old r32 that i had a rb25 turbo in , just for track not complied and all that other bullcrap, got rid of it a while ago but still worth keeping as my avatar :)

um yeah i put a non-turbo 25 in this r33 for the girlfriend but after driving it, handled better and was abit more fun then my ute, so shes stuck with the ute hahaha. straight swap ;) no cash on top.

plus im on my p's so yeah . no point converting for a track car

I have one of their sub boxes in my R34. The sound is decent if you are not an audiophile. The box itself is very weak, we had to reinforce it with more fibreglass, but the biggest positive is it comes moulded for either left or right side of the skyines. For me it means more usable space in my boot. I havent had to remove it so far to fit other stuff into the boot. Let me know if you want to see it in person. I dug up their contact details from their auctiva site: http://www.auctiva.com/stores/viewstore2.aspx?id=910452&page=contact

a custom molded box can fit behind your panels ,leaving you all of your boot space ???? 12" subs fit both sides unless your running some monster subs with deep magnets,

and the new shallow mount stuff can fit under rear decks on some cars or behind the factory panels in the boot. and can be well hidden

I'd show you mine but its more elaborate then a sealed box and made out of carbon fiber/lexan

I guess in the end it comes down to what type of sound you are happy with and how much you want to spend (I think the latter is the primary decision point for many). Wow, I had no idea you could fit 12" sub behind the panel, damn should have asked on here before installing mine. Troy, can you suggest anyone in Sydney I can talk to about that? Might sell my 'box' and mount behind the panel.

hmm not positive but chis rogers might know ?more

queen street ? maybe

In car intalllations

anyone who can do a mold for the area, you need to move your jack to inside your spare tyre well , which has more then enough room.

and don't cut metal, it can be a structual defect per ADR rules

the space is about a litre depending on how tight the fit it. . remember you might need to service your light globes and remove your rear bar sometime so don't hinder that access perm(R34)

doran pro audio in bankstown

the area is the boot on the sides is close to 1.5 cubic feet, not 1.5 liters. oops.lol my USA side got sidetracked. and that takes into account the fiberglass and most med. price subs magnet structure and poly fill.

    • Welcome to my 2004 Toyota Mark ii IR-V Fortuna (series 2) With a 1JZ-GTE powerplant under the bonnet (hood) it'll give me plenty of scope for power upgrades. For those who aren't familiar with imports, the 1JZ-GTE is a 2.5L 6 cylinder VVTi engine with a single turbocharger. This has the factory R154 5 speed gearbox, along with a aftermarket 2 way LSD differential (brand unknown). Under the arches are a set of CST Zero 1 alloys, 18x9 +30 225/40 up front and 18x9.5 +15 265/35 on the rear. The car was quite low in Japan and there's evidence of the wheels catching the rolled arches/fenders. The tyre's aren't great so I'm in two minds whether to replace both or just the tyres and put up with the wider wheels on the rear. The car still uses stock brakes with the addition of some braided hoses. The exterior is stock with the exception of a BN Sports front bumper and a replacement Fortuna grill  Moving to the interior, the steering wheel has been replaced with a dished MOMO steering wheel (which will get swapped for my Momo Tuner for the time being) Defi Link Gauges are mounted above the climate controls and on the A pillar, the Oil Temp,Oil Pressure,Water Temp and Boost gauges should help with spirited and track driving  The stock seats have been replaced with some retrimmed Recaro bucket seats. Being a larger build these are a little snug, unfortunately the orange isn't for me so I'll look into replacing these down the line. Other modifications include a twin plate clutch, Blitz intercooler, Evolve alloy radiator, a stainless exhaust with decat, HKS EVC-S boost controller and coil overs
    • Apologies for the long read My R34 GTT was up for sale at the beginning of spring due to a few repairs creeping up. The strut tops needed replacing, roof and bonnet (hood) painting (yay for 3 stage pearl) and the underside stripped and treated. I sold the car which allowed me to be in a much better place financially. Leading up to the sale I was already thinking about the replacement. In an ideal world it needed to be a good all-rounder. Something I can mess around with, modify, do track days, do the school run, go on long drives etc.  Options included but not limited to... Laurel C35, Evo 8/9, Civic FD2, Impreza Hawkeye, Aristo and even an Audi S4 Avant (I've already got the Mazda 6 wagon). But there was always one car at the top of the list The Toyota Mark ii JZX110 I found an advert on a Facebook group for an example in Japan, from a seller called Jon at Rising Sun Exports. A few messages back and forth and Jon calls me from Yokohama one morning (or afternoon in his case). He briefly explained the import process, the costs involved and a repeat of the advert. After much deliberation, the price was agreed and the sale was locked in. I've never imported a vehicle so I jumped into the unknown head first. The money transfer was completed through wise.com (fees apply), very easy to use and the money was with him within a day or two.  The car suspension was raised for the vessel and the car dropped off at the port. It was 7 weeks later when the bill of lading was received and the freight invoice sent to me, followed by the export certificate a couple of days after (both digital copies) In the mean time the port had been in contact. I needed an agent to deal with the NOVA (notification of vehicle arrival) along with the tax/duty invoice, this was £75.00. The port also had a fee of £100, I'm guessing to cover the cost of the 10 day 'free storage' and for moving the car off the boat etc. They need a copy of the vehicle invoice, freight invoice and export certificate to allow the vehicle to pass through customs. The vessel arrived on Tuesday 5th August, the tax/duty invoice was generated and sent over. This is generally tax 20% and duty 10% of the vehicle value. Although the invoice came in at a higher amount than I had calculated. Once HMRC had received the payment the vehicle could be released from customs. I thought once the tax/duty was paid you could collect at any point, that's not the case. Your agent will need to book a collection slot, I requested Thursday 7th which was accepted, with a 9:00am slot allocated. It was a 5:00am start from Norfolk heading to Southampton. We eventually found the compound, upon presenting the bill of lading and some ID they released the car (they drove it out of the compound to the front ready for us to load up). The email from the port stated each slot had a 10 minute window, which seemed abit farfetched but the staff said it's not a strict rule. We were there for approx. 30-40 mins in total. A week prior to collecting I contacted my garage and explained the situation, I was able to get an inspection slot that afternoon. For the registration, DVLA require the car to be insured, for this I used a company called Adrian Flux who can insure the vehicle using the VIN number. 
    • Hey guys, looking for these side skirts if anyone can help me out. 
    • Wife and I are still looking for a new home. One condition was a large enough garage for a full-size lift in one bay. Now if only we could find something... We've been looking for almost a year now.
    • Thanks everyone for the ideas! Sadly, ramps are a no go for me. With young kids at home, I do most of my work late at night while they're sleeping. Starting the car multiple times wouldn't be a great idea.  I'll go see one of those new long reach low profile jacks and take a couple measurements to see if they will fit.
