Hey all,

Im planning to make a sub box for my 12" Sub. What would be the best size 2 make one up that would fit nice onto the r32 boot?

lookin at the boot of the r32, there isnt that much height in it at all

What dimension are your box on the R32 & where did you mount it.

Thanks alot

I've got a 1litre sub box which I bought specifically to go into the boot of my r32, but since buying it I changed my mind and got a custom install made. So now I've got a 12" 1 Litre sub box sittin under my bed...

make an offer for it if you think you can use it.

My 12 goes in on a very slight angle, i could have it straight but it won't fire at the back of the boot properly. If you put a 15" though you'll have to tilt it so much that it hits the bootlid and that's no good for your accoustics... so no go, unless you put it in the tyre well. I'll take sum pics of my custom boot install when i get the time.

    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
    • I should video mine, will prob do it tomorrow    Between 1st and 3rd, you could fit another two gears. That is how loose and wobbly it is   horrible:(
    • Throws on the FS5R30A in most Nissans of this era are actually quite short and direct compared to any remotely modern BMW with the S6-53 transmission. Those things have throws a mile long with rubbery vague everything. Synchro issues combined with a short shifter is just going to break everything even faster.
    • Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears
