Yep, there is plenty of room, I have run mine under there aswell.


Even under the sedan seats? I wouldn't think there was much difference though.
No over-heating problems or anything?
If not, I might do some re-wiring at some point :)

I like to think of it as borrowing someone's car and driving it better than them.

Hi,

Under the seat is usually the coolest spot in the car!

Cheers,
Nik

Real nice... You are quite good with your hands.

That's what she said.

Seriously though, do you do all that brake work at home or at work?

Wanting to buy/looking for: single genuine STi rim, genuine STi front lip, Corazon or Zero/Sports grille and another OEM grille

Can you hook a brother up? Please contact me now. I have cash ready.

You irritate me with your awesomeness Mark!

:D

Looks great as always, love the JL sub, looks like a W0v2 :)

As soon as she hands it to you, slowly take of your pants, then, while staring her straight in the eyes rub it against the tip of you penis, while continuing your painfully intense gaze whisper to her;
 
"My eye is watering, this might be a bit hot"

I should just convert to single, right?

I concur. You should make and sell custom boxes.
I wouldn't mind f'ing off the JL Audio box I have, that takes up half the boot.

Sweet. I assume you're some sort of mechanic?

How easy was it to make up the box? I've got a 15" MTX sub but my box is rooted... I've been meaning to make a new box but have never really sat down to plan and create it.

Really nice install!
So CLEAN!
I have my amp mounted under the seat also.
Though, I have about 2 meters of RCA cables coiled up around the amp.
Where is your excess cable?

Knowing Mark, he probably measured out exactly how much he needed before buying it hahaha.
 


I put up with people from amnesty, red cross and now the cancer council almost daily hounding me!! Throw in the greens, green peace, unhcr, save the forking children and I've well and truly hit my limit for the number of fuckstains wanting me to sign something or give money. Seriously cubts,  :fork: right off.

In the old days my trade was electrical "mechanic", but Im just an industrial sparkie, work in the beverage industry / high speed packaging.

There's plenty of sub box calculators on the net nowadays which makes getting the correct internal air volume calculations very easy.

Thanks. I wanted 2m cables for near on no excess, but could only get 3m at the time. Excess is coiled up behind the HU. Plenty of free space there.

I'll look into it. What materials did you use? MDF? What type of fabric did you use to finish it? Felt?

Mark, how much is this actually eating away at the sidewall thickness of these brake calipers?

They wouldn't technically be legal any more I guess.

Is all the metal you shaved off actually just excess metal to mount the nissan logo, or is it eating away the caliper sidewall thickness?

It's probably a negligible amount, but it looks like you've taken a fair bit off with that mill.
