Woofer Box Question

Recommended Posts

i got 2x 12' subs in a bandpassbox hooked up in the boot of my line last week :) the box is pretty heavy and it moves around when the car moves, also i had to put the amp sideways behind the subs because theres not enough space.

Any pros out there can tell me will there be any negative effects for putting the amp sideways with carboard around it? and any quick ways of locking the sub box in the place i wanted

your help will be appreciated :D

try cutting a piece of timber to fit between the box and the side of the boot, wedge it in, but make sure its not too big, or u might break things that worked for me till i removed the sub box completely LOL.

I made a fake floor for my TX3 and that worked a treat in holding it down, it was carpetted in the sub box material nad my 12" in a box was perfectly stable even with hard cornering

I am considering this for my GTR now because the spare wheel creates an annoying buldge in the boot and my sub would slide everywhere

Velco to solve your problem, yes :P

If you're willing to part with all of about $3, head to bunnings or a hardware store, grab 2 (or 4 if you centre the box) small L brackets and screw them to the floor plate. _l l_ (like so) drop the box between then and its going nowhere, while still easy to get out. leave the velcro on, can't hurt.

    • You don't need an AC mechanic to fit it. You do need one to vac the system down and fill it. That's how you get refrigerant.
    • Well, it's actually probably worse than you think. I think you have to (minimally) install GKTech's spherical bush replacements to the lower arm's inner ends, because you absolutely cannot subject the original (or poly) bushes to that much misalignment. The better option being to replace the whole lower arm with GKTech's unit. This brings sphericals to the lower inners either way you do it. And are you aware that the kit is weld in and you have to take the subframe out of the car to get it fitted? It's a fair bit of work. These issues both drive my ongoing dithering about doing this to my car, for the last couple of years.
    • The website said you need a AC technican to swap it in. Is that true? How did you fill the refridgerant? Was it easy to install?  If i just got the bracket and the new smaller AC compressor, would the other components be compatible with R134?
    • Hi All Finally getting back to work on the R32 this weekend and had a quick question about the GKTech anti squat kit (https://au.gktech.com/products/s13-180sx-r32-subframe-anti-squat-reduction-weld-in-kit?_pos=39&_fid=eb6b5077e&_ss=c) So, this straightens out the rear LCA and increases the roll centre by 20MM which is great BUT I also have MFR roll centre adjusters (https://www.rhdjapan.com/moonface-super-lap-rc-joint-roll-center-adjuster-bnr32-ps13-rps13.html) which gives a +15MM lift. My question is whether they can/should be used together or if its going to massively effect the geometry? In my mind, I can't see that they work together but was hoping for some feedback on someone who has done this before deciding which to use or if both?   Thanks
    • Agreed. Thing has to be running absolutely pig rich as well. I would worry a lot less about your idle and start going through all your electrical before the car burns down.
