Alright.. So basically, EVERYTHING is coming out. Literally the only equipment that'll be reused are the Singer alt, batts, HU, subs, and tweeters. Thats it.. like even the voltage meter is coming out. :rofl: I wont have any progress for about a month when I go back home for summer break.. But I figured Id get this thread started.. The weather is warming up, so that can only mean one thing.. Heavier oil. Next, I got these in the mail.. Instead of sleeping at 1am what am I doing?

Nope, no progress yet. My amp sold, so Im about to order some fiberglass stuff and have it ship to my house. Ill be home in ~2 weeks, so thats when Ill REALLY start the rebuild.
The plan is to start with the a pillars, doors, and dash. From there, Ill do the amp and battery racks. The enclosure and beauty panels will come last... As of right now.

Just some SMALL updates.. I got the VM1 a few weeks ago, and tested it out for a first time today. Not only is it pure sex, theres seemingly NO lag. It makes my Stinger look like it pauses lol Lvl 4s are out too for now.. along with the box. For those of you who don't know, my Ampere sold for around what I wanted.. so Im about to shoot some money to Populus for amps, and buy some fiberglassing shit. Im insanely busy for finals.. But I hope to find some time tomorrow to start measuring for a new box and look at new potential amp layouts.

While the subs were out, i figured Id overlook everything on them.. voice coil resistance, actual coil, spider joints, surround for cracks, cone for tears.. etc. First, resistance of the leads themselves.. So, the coils all read between 1 and 1.1 ohms.. lookin good :good: Everything else looked to be on point too. The weather was BEAUTIFUL today, so I did a TON of measuring. I have some friendly advice for you, don't try to make sense of it.. because you'll get a migraine hahah.. So basically what it says is that I can get 3.9 cubes after wood displacement (all double baffled), but before sub and port. I could fit a pair of 12s.. or hmm.. get another 10 and wire them to have a final load of .66 ohm :peepwall: We'll see... This really makes me think of how not glassing held me back. Ill take a pic of my "trunk"/tire well, as that'll show what I mean best.. but it insanely hindered how much space I could obtain.

Ok.. more little updates.. Last night, I hit up Kevin.. and I picked up 20ft of SHCA 1/0, along with 5 set screw fuse holders and a few 300A fuses. He sent me a few ninja pics of what CNF coming out with.. and I can't lie.. they look sick I did some measuring this morning for speaker clearance. My goal is to NOT cut any metal in the door, as the part Id have to cut is close to the part that holds my window motor and regulator. Id rather not weaken that part of my door.
