R34 Sub Box

[Addicted2BoostR34]

ok guys so i been thinking about this 4 a while ..

first i wanted a sub box on the side pannel like you get the fiberglass ones, but wanted it to be wooden didnt like the idea of a flimzy box ...so here are my pics

the hole to fill ,

started with some dynamat ( didnt car about extra weight) just hate rattles and tiny sound

the disign lay out to get a pattern of how far i wanted it to sit back in there ..

after playing around cutting and shutting little bits i took it out to get the outside measurements and transferd it to my mdf sheet and cut it out and tacked it together to see if it fitted back up again

note the tapper in on the left to fit past the brackets

the reason for the angel

fitted up nicely i think had to add it strips under the base to keep it square and sitting flat i tidyd the strips up and screwed em down

( i have finished this box and coved it ill add pics 2mora) its air tight screwd and liquid nailed shut

the amp's will be on a flip down back peace under the rear window so wen its pinned up you will not see the amps or wireing unless its unpined and droped down to keep the boot simple and tidy i havent started that yet but ill update wen its done

also if you dont like well meh

FYI .you could have done it and had it behind the panel, there is plenty of airspace and you wouldnt loose any boot. 12" subs fit no cutting of steel

bet that dash is a bugger on sunny days reflecting off the windscreen

but overall a better attempt then some of others in the audio section. IMO

its not a gloss paint so it doesnt reflect at all as for box i wanted a sealed wooden box if not i would have just made a pannel like you said and flush mounted it in im not fussed on boot space as its a weekend driver just wanted to get the spare out with out the sub getting in the way

Is there a back on the box? or is it glued/screwed to the body and cavity?

Is the box volume big enough for the subs requirments??

looks nice mate

Dash around the passenger side looks a little 2nd hand which is a shame I blame girls with bags.
