R34 Boot Layout Suggestions

[Shnid]

Hey all, i recently updated my 1998 Nissan Skyline R34 coupe's boot, i made a mount to fit the R34 boot's sides (left and right). And for the amps, i just got a piece of wood, marked where the holes would sit for the amps, drilled it in, covered it with the black shit (as seen in the images) and screwed it into the back of the bottom section. I've also mounted LED lights along the top of the boot, and connected them to the OUTPUT of the sub's amp, so they beat to the music. It looks pretty sweet.

So yeah let me know what you think, or any other way i could improve the boot.

Any questions or such, let me know.

cheers guys.

[dori34]

how'd you mount the subs to the corner like that?

[dysonest]

has anyone compared these fiberglass ones to a solid sealed wooden box ? ? but looks good just needs the amps hidden like dysonest said

I think its just your cable management, I have the same setup but when u see the cables it looks a bit messy...

I screwed the sub boxes down from the inside then screwed the sub in, they have not moved for over a year now..

Did you take out the parcel shelf and make a custom box to fit the sub and place it there? I want a way to install my sub so it doesn't consume boot space lol.

Hey mate,

I made that bit of MDF flat panel to fit snug in between the strut towers. The passenger side is tight, but there is a gap on the right hand side. I'm sure it would affect sound somehow, as it isn't sealed per say, but I got it all turned on yesterday, and it sounded good. It was way more punchy in the box I had it in, but it sounds pretty good the way it is. So yeah, no box. Just a flat panel of MDF, carpeted, and foam sealed around the edges. Amp is mounted in the boot, right below the boot release mechanism on the very back panel of the car. The sub is just 1 kicker 10" solobaric, and the amp is a fusion job.

That sub will blow without a sealed box !! Mark my words

they like tiny boxes that will fit under the deck with ease !! So you can do it right ??

Hit me up if you want one designed for free

Hahaha. You were spot on man. I blew all 3 fuses in my amp the other day. I have a heap of leftover MDF, so I think I might actually enclose it now!

[Carbon 34]

Good call lol

[sonnyQ]

have been thinking about making up a box that fits snugly into the recess there. let us know how you go as I would be interested to see dimensions, how you fix it in place etc.
