Hey, it's Jim Bob's old car.

[jaywood]

looks like you put bondo over the hole for your front tow hook?

Correct.

Thanks for the compliments guys:)

Got my subwoofer and amp wired in today...I'll post some pics soon.

keep up the great work man. everything little detail is just amazing. sub'd.

I like the attention to detail. I want to try that tail light tint

I like everything you've done so far. but for your saftey and everyone around you, I'd have those coilovers professionaly welded. welding stuff to forged metal isn't exactly the easiest thing. and those welds just don't look to good.

Thought about that..called a couple welders in town and they said they can't weld car parts because their insurance won't let them. So my dad said he'll do it. It's a strong weld. It's not completely welded onto the cast steel...most of the weld is attached to the spindle(we left a little gap between the coilover and the knuckle). Also, the coilover is an extremely tight fit. We had to pound it onto the spindle. Pretty much a press fit....and most of the pressure isn't placed directly on the weld...so I think it'll take my abuse.

Okay, cool. I'll try putting the sub in the trunk and see how it sounds.

I thought about doing that, but I still have the rear seat to deal with. Isnt it hard to get bass in the cabin unless you have ports/armrest?

I went with 10k 12k rates because I wanted it stiff. I read it was a good combo of DD and track...feels pretty good so far! :)

Bass will still enter the car.

Take the cover off from inside the trunk, and where the ski pass should be, there is an panel that was tac welded in, punch that out and mount the sub there.

great choice on coilovers and nice job with subwoofer box ;)
why did you go with 10/12 springs ?

[jaywood]

Finished the subwoofer box today

Cutting carpet to size



Getting wrapped









Done





Turned out pretty good...seams are hidden pretty well. I have a mesh cover that I'll be putting on it as well which looks good. It'll help protect the sub as well.



Went to the local audio shop after school today and used some of their keys to pop out my headunit. It should be getting wired in soon :)

The angle of the box is perfect to fit either in the trunk, or right behind the driver seat on the floor. Any suggestions?

How will a 12" sound in the trunk? My rear seat has no armrest, and the rear deck has no ports in it. I don't want to do any drilling on the deck/seat foam.

[jaywood]

Thanks guys :)

Should be doing some audio stuff today when I get out of school.
