Do you want to have your hearing impaired ?

Do you like it when it feels like your ears are bleeding ?

Well if you answered "Hell Yer!" then this is right up your ally.

2 x Kicker (F12c) 12" Competition Class Subs in a custom enclosure.

The box is made from 3/4" MDF and is internaly braced and sound deadened. The box has been built to Kickers exact recommended specifications, it is divided in the middle to give each sub its own internal airspace of 1.75 CuFt and are both ported by a 4" tube port.

The box features a gold plated quick connection port for each sub on either side of the box which is connected by Stinger 10 gauge speaker wire & gold terminals. It is carpeted and both have a Kicker removable subwoofer grill.

Each sub is 4ohm svc (single voice coil) and is rated to take 400w RMS peak, or 200w RMS continuous.

The subs can be linked together to run off one channel.

If they are linked in parallel it will drop ohms to a 2ohm load so you amp has to be 1ohm stable.

If they are linked in series it will increase ohms to a 8ohm load.

The enclosure dimensions are:

Width = 31"

Height = 13"

Top Depth = 17.5"

Bottom Depth = 21.5"

The subs have never been run in a car.

When i brought them I ran a 4hr break in procedure which was done on a test bench and involved varying freq tone steps.

A very regretful sale .... $550

It was goin to go into my hx kingswood, but i didnt manage to get that far, im too fussy and i wanted to custom the boot b4 it when in, but i ended up giving up on the car after i found rust in the rear quarter panels.

Haha, Prank you remember aggess ago a guy in Sydney from SDU was selling a sound setup with 2 x 12 " MTX boxed subs, pioneer splits, etc etc .... and you were after the subs ? I was the guy who purchased em, but I still havn't tried fitting them in the boot :) Maybe today is the day !!

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
