hard decision just worried about how much it will hurt the cars performance

 

.

 

sorry don't like the walls

 

why start a new useless thread? i still say use your existing box in the well for the new 15's.

 

i dont think you should do it if you drive the car a lot . Thats gonn be a big blind spot. I mean thats a pretty serious setup . Remember every 100 lbs of weight it is a .1 os a second. I mean that setup probably weights what 200-300 lbs with amps and subs and all the mdf. I mean if you do it it would be a seriously loud system . I wouldnt do it , but im not you and if you like it do it .

 

im Buying a camera system so i can see behind me... so that takes care of that and im only look at 150lbs hopefully. heres my idea

 

man..I dunno...what will the back side look like? I think it's time for a photoshop...

looks like that might be just a huge headache...literally..

 

what you mean headache? goodness everyones haten on it

 

lol not sure if Two 15 inch subs would actually sound soothing

Go for it if you like it...what will the back side look like?

 

gunna be like a regular box... all enclosed.. im not sure tho 84... im scared to do it.. its a hard decision.. its wicked crazy but its not safe nor race worthy..

looks crazzy
will sound crazy

but

slow me down
block my veiw

i spent 1 whole day cutting it , in and out of the car like 30 times.. i guess that dont mean nothin it either is good or bad..

i will buy that camera but not sure how much it will help out...

i wish someone else with a wall was actually here to talk about it

 

Personally, I've wanted to do something like this, but I dont have the time nor the resources. I say go for it; just dont let it get too bland. It would suck if you had all teh nice space and nothing with which to fill it. From the looks of it it looks good to me.
But, its you car... do whatever floats your boat.

 

I wouldnt...

 

definitely go for it...be different. you'll never have the fastest car anyway. the slower your car is maybe you wont try to go as fast so you'll get less tickets, go through less gas, and break less parts

 

We will not tell you NOT to do the wall if you agree to have a mulle-l- and pork chop side burns and say dang alot

and have every auto trader from 1995 to present and constantly read

 

ugh! yuk!

 

Do what you want, not what others want. If you dont like it after its finished, you can always take it out.

 

If your still able to remove this beast and carpet it and make the interior look nice it could have potential. But if you were gonna do that you prolly would have done it up and fiberglassed it...Let us know how it goes...

you guys dont waste space and post useless crap..

that said, i think that if your gunna do a wall you should at least have some reason to do it. i.e. more than two 15s. i mean come on you could fit like 8 12s in that amount of space

 

agreed. give some reason to build a wall like that...put 5 15's in it not just 2. that is why i have been asking why you are ditching the hatch area enclosure. do 4-5 15's in a wall and then it will be more practical.

 

its not always about that though....ive done a wall with 1 10 and needed the space...it just depends how much airspace you need.

thirdgens arent too convenient for airspace while making a wall so he'll be able to get a decently large box in there with a moderately sized port.

 

I would say if you want it go for it. I think it would look pretty good once it's all done. If you still got the 2.8 L like in your info, then the car isn't a big performance anyways.

Course you could always just put on a 50 hp nitrous kit and gain all that back again :-)

 

i say do it i think it will look cool (if done right) and you will be diff :lala:

 

thanks and im using 2 15's in a wall because there isnt enough in the trunk well for 2 15"s PORTED..... thats all i have to say..

 

does it have to be a wall? could you take out the seats and build a box that replaces the seats and goes at a diagnal from the floor behind the fronts to the top of the gas tank hump? Then you would still have your rear window. You would prolly have to glass it to fit the contours but....i think it would be sweet, and you could pick up some pretty good airspace. Just a thought. I am sure this has been done somewhere along the line.

 

can u draw up a little pic? im confused at ur idea

 

I'm just saying man, if you had 4 15's or 6 10's i'd be like "hm okay" but your just looking for an accident regardless if you have a camera mounted in the back or not

 

this is a very crude pic i have not used paint program since childhood. If you have further questions pm me and i will try to explain.

 

not to dis you or anything but I agree I think this attempt looks kinda quickly thought up. You should put some thought into this and build something that will take some time and effort. You could prolly make a wrap around box that goes from the hatch to the back seats that might actually look decent and give you the airspace you need. Theres a firebird on this site that has like 1 15 2 12s and 2 10s or something. Its from Australia or something. Granted the subs are sony but still...You should check it out if you can find it.

Insted of making a wall why not put some 10's along the left and right side along the armrests and in the middle put 2 15's so then you will have your back window and a trick back seat.

 

mixing sub sizes is baaaaad news

 

thatd be weird.. but any fck this thread im just gunna do this

 

Good thoughts thats what i kinda was thinking post pics when you get started.

 

aight.. barely get the door open on the car its so cold out .. gotta pull this motor out in the car me and a friend race at the strip and.. this cold weather.. might be alittle bit till i start sry lol blame the weather

 

you should get some atomic 24" subwoofers , that be killer. bigger just looks better sometimes

 

yeah its a shame theres no such thing

 

3 kicker squares would look nice in the second box. imo

 

yea shame i alrady saw waht santa brought... 2 15"s ed16kv.2's

 

atomic does make a 24 inch woofer...so does resonant engineering now.

the square kickers (L5s, L7s, soloX) dont work nearly as well in a sealed box

 

I wonder what the legality is of having the back window completely blocked off. here in MN the only vehicles that can have the rear window blocked off is pickups. ohhh personally I wouldn't do it, looks like somthing a &icer would do

 

well.. didnt u see my other pic of what im doin now?? where the back seats were

 

You will love the elemental designs woofers!!!! Good choice! I have the e10kx.2...the flat cone design and it sounds fantastic!

 

yeah too bad, those 24 inchers would just be cool to have for show! I'm shure they'd be enevitably loud , I woudnt expect the loudest but probably super low frequencies too,porbably dont play over 40 or 50 hz or recomended.

 

i think they're more competition use so the fs would actually be quite a high frequency

btw in most places you're allowed to have the back window blocked as long as you have a driver and passenger mirror working.

 

dude listen to this.. i have the gain like 1/8 up... bass boost at a controlled level..haha.. i only have 1 16kv.2 hooked up.. and its louder then both my kicker vr comp 15's... the ed subs have gotten respect from me but the ups people who dropped the other ED sub and bent the basket can go to hell

 

In Texas you can block your rear view as long as you have both side mirrors... and if he gets a rearview lcd screen, and a nice camera that he can integrate somewhere in the rear area of the car... then I say go for it-- but wouldnt' the wall normally come all the way up the rear of the front seats??

ALL HAIL THE WALL OF SOUND!:hail: :hail: :hail: :hail:

Everyone else can just mope around and wish they had one... man I want to build a wall... but I want a back seat so I'm never gonna do it... I should go buy a ford explorer or something..

 

Go for the wall man. I have a wall and I think it is well worth it. I've had the car for over 2 years and haven't backed into anybody yet. I have 3 10" Kicker solobarics pushing 147 dbs with port directly behind my head. What a rush! I'll try to get some pictures this week sometime.

 

how do you plan on using that center channel... and how the heck does that mount/look good?

 

sorry but that wall i made is toast.. its just too big and since im gunna have a motor in it and all.. it just cant be like that..tooo much stuff to worry about and i dont want to block off half the car.. i'll say it once again


IM MAKEN A BOX WHERE THE BACK SEATS ARE AND MAKING IT VERYCLEAN WITH THE CONTOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

where are you making it again?

 

83=foot in the a$$ lol jp
