Lets See Those Custom SUB Boxes!!!

[rfalker1]

I am just curious about people's sub setups and trunk work

[Yelcamino]

Here's the box I made for my El Camino...

[rfalker1]

No, I don't think so. They're just MTX 10" speakers with aluminum cones.

I dont really think that subs fit into this community. 100+ extra lbs doesnt add much performance.

You would think, but check out the project pages of the DSE website. Most of the builds they do have a subwoofer and amps. They have just a more impressive way to mount them.

Mz84, I love your trunk space!!!! looks awesome and simple. I will post my box soon too

[Yelcamino]

I guess I like having the option - a cruiser with tunes and a/c (that can still hold its own) or a more hard core ride with absolutely no creature comforts.

I love mechanical sounds anyday, but my car is less track-car; and more road-car, so I like to cruise with some tunes.
My setup is not much to look at, but you will feel it, a single 12" Infinity Kappa Perfect 12.1 and a 6 ch amp,
The cheap 1/2" mdf box has been reinforced, added dynamat Xtreme and poly fill inside.
This is about all you can see of the audio, most of it is stealth. I'm reinstalling this from the daily driver into the Monte.

Agree somewhat, but doesn't additional weight in the back add acceleration grip, (joking). But alot of people love to listen to music while they drive especially me!!!. But I can understand why some people wouldn"t run subs. Heck if I'd pay thousands of dollars for weight saving pieces I would be damn if I put that extra weight in my car

For some reason I can't paste a pic from fquick from my iPhone.
But here is the camaro trunk.

And adding extra weight, yes you are correct Rogue, but what is the definition of "Pro Touring"? LOL!! To each their own I suppose!

[rfalker1]

Awesome, have u upgrade the sub, Question what kind of steering wheel do you have in there Jimmy?

LoL, like the wheel eh?! That is an OLD pic, I think 99 or 00! Now I have a Flaming River wood grain wheel kind of similar to a stocker wood one.

The sub is the same tho. The kicker stuff I got in 99 or 00. Heck, in all honesty I hardly ever even turn it on! Lol Now I have an optima back there too.

Here are a couple of past projects I have built

My 1969 Camaro from a few years ago, Full fiberglass enclosure and custom trim panels



1971 Firebird, simple enclosure and trim panels

[rfalker1]

Here is my current one, I will be getting a new one in the future, and I love how clean your boxes are Chad.

To some, sound performance is just as important as track performance. Comes down to YOUR definition of "Pro-Touring". I don't think Pro-"Touring" (emphasize the touring) is about race cars that you can take to the grocery store. To me, it's the other way around, grocery getter that can haul it on the track. Not to debate the almighty PT def... I'm doing a great sounding system.

[rfalker1]

Yes Jimmy I like the wheel, I bought a blue grant steering wheel recently, just was wondering if mine would look like yours. . Plus I agree with you fully Will, performance can be judged so many different ways!!! Sound, handling, acceleration, braking, top speed, mpg, life expectancy, etc

[Nessumsar]

Had to, sorry. No stereo in my car.
