Phoenix Gold Phorum

the two xmax 12 sealed in my lex was, well hmmmmmmmmm

ok, but i want more output...

now im starting all over. some ass munch on a lex forum said cant get
6 cubic ft out of the trunk...

well heres stage one of new box..i may not need all 6 cubes but i can get it if i need it..

im leaning toward two 12inch titaniums, (my friend still has the two brand new in the box) but he hard to part with them.

or im gonna put one elite 12d

Looks good man.

Oh btw I was on the big island this christmas. I really liked it. I looked for the lex the whole time haha

Are your 2125's finally going to see some action?

wow...such a nice square trunk to work with...this should go very good.

what about a pair of rsd's

actually i havent decided on what sub but money is not avaialbe now
so ill use what i have.

you were on the big isle ahsmo?

where were you?

one more pic, not bad i got 3.7 cubic ft

thats not including the second part of box.

update>

i have been messing around figuring out how to get my damn elite
inmy lexus, guys this a very heavy sub to be lugging back in forth
trying to hold and center a ring for placement.

the speaker is to tall for the opening i have to work with, the speaker is too damn deep to angle the ring enough to fit the sub but yet the magnet
hits the bottom of box. finally got the ring where i want it only to realize that i cant put the sub in from the front because my seats dont fold down and i cant put the box in the car with the sub init cause ill have my balls shoot out of my nose....
my body is sore from messing with this sub all day, i was about to
call it quit and just put the two xmax 12s in it and call it a day.
it would have been so much easier but im not one for easy so i
finally figured it out.

the ring will be glassed into the box and ill have to mount the sub form the back. since my box is two parts it wont be a problem.

now im putting this in 4 cubic ft before displacement of port and sub.

tuning at about 25hz and firing the ports through the rear deck where the stock 6x9s used to be.
the sub will fire into the stock ski pass and will be completly sealed from the backof seat..no rear waves to worry about.

fuck im really sore....

ill have some more pics but since my wife took the camera earlier i cant post what i have...

aloha

Damn dude... lots of effort but it sounds like it will be awesome.

damn better be. this thing is pissing me off.

i didnt want this to be a 2 week project.

but all in the quest for low bass.

pics soon.

nice work!

I had also my problems, some things wouldn't work, but hey, it's a hobby and it take some time

Holy shit Brenz, your car looks nuts! I can't wait to see that kit painted.

Nice forest in your backyard... lucky bastard

Agreed!! Every damn time I see an IS I break down into tears, I want one sooooooooo bad!!!!

thanks, well here is some more progress







oh and yeah i live next to two empty lots. one is pushed down and the other is the one that borders my house,
the back of my yard is bordered with "hapu" fern trees.

put my daughter to work, she even helped lay the glass down on the cloth.

and yes she wears a resperator and gloves.

damn i hate you....that looks sick as hell.

Nice work!

The front of the box reminds me of an eye

yeah it does, i really didnt intead that but i was gonna just curve the top part and then com straight down but i figured what the hell.


my daughter likes it so i wont bother with changing it ,

the thing is when its in the car and you look through the ski pass you can see all of it so it kinda looks cool cause you can see the tapering of the ring to box but not the edges

pics coming soon,,had to postpone car alittle

helping impact do a VIP q45.

kinda nice install, ill post pics when where done with that one.

bump for those who asked for build
