again im confused,are you trying to BUY them from me? i am fixing to send this sub off to be rebuilt so if you serious bout wanting to buy them let me know but you should know this box wasnt cheap especially that plexiglass.yes, it goes through the rear deck, the rear deck has been cut out to accommodate it. i had to use a rx rear lap belt to keep three seatbelts in the rear since the area for the inner seat belt got cut out to accomodate for this sub

it's an R33 ,and it's stupidly expensive!!

i've had to replace the coilovers,buy new alloys/tyres,take the turbos & manifolds off to replace one fubar'd gasket,got 2 fines for illegal plates (lettering was not UK legal),damaged the front end,brought a new 25 row oil cooler

i'm lucky to get 185miles to a tank full of 99 octane fuel,costs about £70 which is roughly $145 dollars i think

the starter motor let go last week,so going to take that off tomorrow and re-con it back up to scratch

i've been looking at GS's,really like that maroon red from the 2002 car's onwards i think it is,hopefully getting a new job soon aswell with much better pay,so within 6 month's or so i may be able to get one,and keep the skyline,unless i decide to put the damn thing on fire,just so much hassle
though also done a track event in it and i loved it,limited to 120mph and it gets there pretty quick,got a list of htings to do over the winter,and either keep it or sell it any maybe get an R34 GTR if things go well enough

sorry went on abit there.

regarding your dynamat,i'm guessing it's made a massive difference,do you get any rattles at all? i use to get some from the boot from my sub,i applied dynamat extreme to the boot and all the door's only,made it much quieter inside

spent bout 20 mins on phone with greg @ RE Audio sub is being rebuilt with some of the new technology for the 2011 subs....its kind of a prototype thicker coils, bigger terminals, and a few other things. its being rebuilt to a dual 2 ohm instead of the dual 4 ohm as i was gonna run 2 subs...

im looking at a specific box RE recommends and i have a few new pics to post of some things i have done but its a slow and steady process so this is the latest as of now

KEEP IN MIND THE TRUNK ISNT FINISHED YET, I STILL HAVE TO MAKE A TRIM PANEL,ADJUST THE GAINS AND PUT THE COVERS BACK ON THE AMPS BUT ITS 90% FINISHED NOW....AND ALL IN SUEDE. ALL WIRING IS RUN BELOW THE AMP RACKS AND EVEY HOLE HAS A GROMMET MADE FOR IT.EVEN THE SUBBOX IS COVERED IN IT

def. custom and very nice work..

Seems like the edges could get tucked away or something, like under the box and both panels next to it.

Looking good, Brian. I'm so jealous of the L-Sportline bumper.
