I'm sick of my heavy sub boxes in the boot along with the ply base for mounting the amp.

Can't access spare plus too much weight.

I have Fusion splits on the front doors, and 6 x 9's in the back.

I'm thinking of relocating the 6 x 9's and mounting the subs there, under the windows.

Maybe then put the 6 x 9s on the parcel shelf.

If my subs are off, the 6 x 9's sound out of phase and put out bugger all base.

No sound proofing done right now, but I'll probably fill the cavity with polyester roof insulation

Any thoughts ?

cheers

I think you will find that you cant mount your subs on the doors as they need to be in a box of a certain volume to work effectively. Hence why they are in a bulky box.

ideally if you have cash, sell your current subs and buy the pioneer slimline subs (from memory the box is about 30cm wide) or some active subs (some have a built in amp, often used in utes) and mount them under your front seats.

subs can fit in the sidewalls but they need a box to sound decent, which needs to be molded to fit, and cutting the metal can be a structual defect so be warned ?

a 8 would fit easy a 10 if you modded up the side panel plastic. to do it right will take some money and time but its possible

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
