Future build

[LosIsATool 5,000+ posts]

Since its never enough, I am starting to plan and put away for the fall/winter upgrades.

Before I change anything else that isnt already set up ei. HO and new box, the Viper 5702 remote start/alarm will be installed and a 2 inch drop will be done. I was thinking about rims but I like the ones it has stock, and the tCs look good lower a few inches.

Anyway, next amp will be the Kicker ZX2500.1 or if funds are good to go the RF T2500bd-cp ( I love this **** amp ). Subs will be Icons or Qs. I'm going for more of a SQL build since I'm getting a bit old for the head ringing bass.

The electrical will already be good to handle this power and I cant go any bigger on the box that Rabbit is doing for the Lvl 3s. It might not be the ideal box size but it will have to work. I think he said he could get a bit over 5 cubes with areos.

Unless I change my mind and ditch the back seat and do a wall in the hatch and amp rack where the seat goes.

Its going to be the hardest choice picking between the FIs or SSAs, it will depend on who is on top at that time.

Go with 1 sa12 on a 1000 watt memphis D amp. great power and sub combo. for right around 350-400 range. then you got 100 left over for wiring kit. my brother has the memphis D 1000 watt on an alpine type r and hes went through 2 windows and 3 window seals and many many strips of 3m tape for his rv mirror. lol

I really like that one but I mght end up getting a factory referb, but if its warrentied its all good.

yeah I've never had a problem with anything I've gotten referbished. I prob spelled that wrong. How much was it for the Viper alarm, I'm looking at getting an alarm/remote start.

I found it for $220, but you might need a chip override like I do. For me its $100 and I'm not going to install it so thats another $250. Overall about $575 so its not that bad for a nice 2 way unit. Add about $100 for the color LCD one.

yeah everything is more expensive when you have someone else do it....it makes me debate every time about it. I just recently made the decision to do all my own fiberglass work for my mids, I was gonna have a shop do it, but they quoted me for 800 which aint bad, but then I was like I need tools anyways I'm always borrowing so I was like I'll see what I need to do it myself. spent 200$ with no coupons on Everything, tons of resin;fiberglass mat,mdf,screws,jigsaw,circular saw,power sander,sandpaper,bondo,paint,wood dowels and fleece. So I'll end up saving 600 and have 3 new power toolz. Glad I made that decision.
