Kangaroux's 99 Pathfinder

[xmakeafistx 10+ year member]

I was looking at my cheap ebay voltmeter today, it has a small screw adjustment screw on it. I havent installed it yet but if it is off I will adjust it.
Also I found a picture of my TN crimper. It works really good.

Get some work done on your install. I should be done this weekend (I hope) Also I just installed am Autostart system that works great and only cost $30. For you way up there in the frozen North it would be something good to have. Really easy to install actually.

Hell yeah, thats how you crimp.

Got the box built, just need to cut out the hole for the sub and mount the double baffle. If I do manage to get it hooked up today it will be running off like 600w at the most. No bracing on the box just yet, still need to go to lowes and get some threaded rod for it. However I don't think the box will be having any flex issues off just 600w.

Pics up shortly once I get the baffle cut and secured. Even without the double baffle this box is super heavy...

Box is finally done....I was getting a bunch of different results for the cutout on a 6 spoke 18" basket so I just guessed it but I was off by 1/8" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif. The blade on my jig is totally the wrong one to be cutting MDF and it took me a half hour alone just to do the cutout, so what I did was mark where the spokes would be and then I cut out little indents. Kinda ghetto, I know, but I was too tired to bother with recutting the whole **** thing. With that being said, my legs feel like they are going to snap off (building a box for an 18 in less than 6 hours //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif) so I didn't load it in the back of the pathfinder. False floor hasn't been made yet anyways so that's not a big deal.

I'll snap some pictures tomorrow for you guys, but for now, I just want to sleep lol

Got it all hooked up and running temp. on my 2.600, unfortunately it's super quiet. I think I accidentally tugged out one of the speaker wires on my sub while I was moving the box, so I'm going to have to go out tomorrow and inspectigate the issue. Battery is on its last limb so I'm going to be ordering a battery from RAM_Designs hopefully. I'll get some pics tomorrow of it in the back and the finished box. Sorry for the lack of pics lately -- just haven't really done much to constitute pictures haha.

Gluing up the double baffle

5.5 cubes @ 27hz, 14 in^2 of port per cube (I wanted to do 16 but the port would have to have been even longer, and it's already ~49").

Was going to go outside and grab some pics of the box and the sub mounted but I woke up to this. 11" of snow

Early winter and late spring up here blows cause half the time when it's snowing it's like 32-33 degrees so it comes down in snowballs and just freezes up instantly. Luckily its 28 right now so it's very light stuff

This guy...

This is a temp. setup for the amp. When I get my wire in and installed it will look all clean.
