im looking to get someone to make a custom sub-box for 10" solo baric, couple shops i spoke to just wanted to box it in a generic 10" box with the round opening modified to square

i rather a custom box so it fits in the boot better

any recommendations? im in western sydney

The solobaric subs use much less space then generic boxes give you , the generic box will be too big and sound crap and could kill the woofer

two subs in a shared space ( tyre well ) will actually make it worse the tyre well is too big and shared space halves the volume required for 2 subs

I would do custom to save space and sound better

Which car model is it , most have enough room for a 12 in behind the side panel on passenger side ? So it wouldnt take any extra space at all !!!

The solobaric sounds better with a tiny bit of polyfill on the back wall of the box , smoothes out the sound and tighter sounding

im trying to minimise the amount of boot space the box will occupy so no dual subs.. as troy mentioned they do quite well in small boxes (1 cu.ft max as per kicker specs)

car: r32 so no space in the back, want to tuck it between the shock towers in the boot

You can do a half tube under the rear deck for a solobaric 10 easy

Tight bass , light weight enclosure and leaves. Room for amp to mount on it too

To look nice?

Mate those DD subs use a lot bigger box and with that much power

A good /proper box is a must of kiss them good bye I've seen more then a few torched

From a noobie , are those sealed or ? The split in the floor mount almost looks like you have them

Running free air ? Mind you its viewed on iphone lol

They would fit with ease on each side panel and minimal loss of space and not super heavy like that brick , which looks to big for the specs on solobaric 12's

the side panels are prime spots for custom boxes for up to 12" subs , 15" fit inverted but use a fair bit of space

Slim mount subs fit in a bunch of spots including inside the gtt rear cabin walls but custom box only

2 12" will fit under the rear deck if your clever and specs are right , ported thru factory speaker holes or in the sedan the ski tunnel pass thru

    • That's awesome. Fully serviced/full log book history for one of those cars is super rare from what I know. With JDM's like Skyline's, Supras, are quite hard to find one with full log book history. S15's seem to be somewhat of an exception, at least the spec s australian delivered models.
    • Hey all, It's been a bit since I have been able to update.  I pulled the fuel pump, first off it was a "universal" pump and the strainer was very clogged, and it was folded over on itself.  I replaced the fuel pump and all is well....  No more stalling.

    • Hey guys so turns out this project is going to be much bigger than I thought haha but I've done some my homework and have done a few panels on my car, but one part I can just not visualise is this. If I do a spot repair and I put filler in a dent for example and sand outside of the repair with 320 grit lets say so the primer can stick as I will only put primer on that repair and the surrounding area and then repaint the whole panel. Don't I need to make sure that I don't put primer on the old clear coat? I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down, it's still shiny. I thought putting paint on clearcoat or primer on clearcoat is a bad idea because it won't stick. So in this scenario it's a bit different to mine but imagine someone doing a spot repair and only painting that small section of repair but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat. What am I missing?
