Questions and Comments welcome....

What are your guesses on a DB level this would hit?

-John

nice install not a fan of the tv/monitor in the back but I would say you will hit around the 140.7db as I have a friend that is close to that and almost as loud
great work
did you do it all yourself?

Very nice

Excellent job! I like the vents for the subs located near the floor. It took me a while to see that they were even there.

Very nice....great work! I love the glass ported enclosures...not to many attempt it! Hater vision!!!!! I like the monitor....considering it is a show and display install it works great. Guys I know in town do it and have their own dvds to show other installs and the over quality of what you can expect from em. A few years ago I was tossing around the idea of an ms1k built into the rear window frame of my 87 coupe de ville. smaller port style window and impossible to get the amp out....now I see one of Jasons plexi's on it....shit....I wrecked the car....

Anyway....cool stuff....keep the photo's coming!!!!

Very nice install you got, i guess 145dB?

Nice work...............
I'd like to see the rest of the car.

Sure, I can toss up more of the car

You guys are close, it hit 142.7 last weekend. Untuned, and my first time ever trying SPL... so I think its respectable

You'll see from the other pics... lots of Carbon Fiber.

LMAO...

I was going to say she was working behind it...

It looks really good, though I do not understand the seats.

also the side skirts look a bit too big, the front bumper when it wraps the fender is on an angle that doesn't jive with the side skirts, seems that it was just for wow factor. also the rims are multi hole for other vehicles instead of that vehicle.

I know I am a dick when it comes to this... but I am working for the damn Germans and I mean everything has a purpose. especially AMG

so after messing with the black series vehicles, the 63 series line, the SLR, and recently some Audi's... forget it I am ruined, I can't even look at another make in the domestic and Asian market without even thinking it is all disposable.

You dont understand the seats? They are somewhere to site while you drive. LOL.

Bodykits arent for everyone, agreed. The Mazda3 is a disposable car when compared to an SLR, high end Audis etc. Let me know when you find one of those new for 20K though.. LOL

I am looking myself...

im a big fan of that motor though... (im a speed 6 driver ) and the direct injection is masterful.

sick install. as mentioned above. i owuld guess right above the 140db mark. what are your boxes tuned for? looks like a pretty small port.

do anything with the doors/kicks for the front stage?

^^^ What they all said!

Bfowler - No direct injection on this... I have a 2004. Direct Injection was on the Mazdaspeed3 engine. Mine's all aftermarket/custom

Strong motors for sure though!

Nice car, nice install and nice eye candy lol!

I'm with jbondox. I haven't worked on high-end cars, though, but I do appreciate work. There's a lot of work there...but why the trashy calipers? Clean them up for a photoshoot, especially if you're going to be that close. I don't see much in the engine bay short of a strut bar; lower the hood with a fancy, short, prop-stick thingy. The wheels are atrocious, imo. Wtf is Bride? Never heard of it. TINT, especially with that system and that much work.

Good work on the car, but those are just my opinions and sometimes you need a little salt to go with it.

???prop-stick thingy??? To each his own, the ride and system is NICE

opinions are like assholes. Everybody has one.

The thing that holds the hood open...I dunno what it's called. A lot of show cars, whether they have the hydraulics piston things or not, will open the hood like a foot and hold it open with something like an anodized aluminum rod; especially when there aren't many cosmetic mods to the engine.

any video of it ? would like to here it ! looks killer though !
