Oh Lordy, that thing is huge. Where are you going to move your gas tank so it will sit in your rear deck? Lol

Mark,

Ha Ha, good one. I don't think this one would work well IB. Going to build a 4th order enclosure that vents to the factory sub opening. I'm trying to isolate the trunk as much as I can from the cabin.

Very nice. I have the 10w6d4 in another car. It is my favorite sub to date. I will be getting a 12w6d4 for the sc300, when the engine is done.

Well, finally scored a RX300 (wood grain) steering wheel and airbag that are supposed to be in excellent shape. Four spoke fixing to be gone.

Jwin,

It's fine. I've been working on my 40mph golf cart the last few months. I'm going to start playing with the car again. I drove it a couple of nights ago and realized I missed driving it. It doesn't like our Texas heat that much right now.

Well I've been working on the trunk a little. My two batteries weren't playing nice together so I had to put a isolator in to make them both happy. Only place I had to put it was the left side of the tank. Got a lot going on in the trunk.

Redid some things. My car sits for sometimes a week without starting it. I do have dual batteries with an isolator but didn't have a way to monitor them efficiently. Added another battery meter and redid my isolator wiring so I could add a battery tender next to isolator. I'll have a plug which hardwires down by my spare. Should turn out great.

Just got my 2000 SC steering wheel back from Craft Customs. Had them add 1/16" pad to it to make it thicker. Wheel turned out perfect and is a perfect match to airbag. Price was $319.00.

To anyone with an older car that wants to update wheel and have it redone I'd highly recommend them.
