why do u need a lightweight sub??

 

[McNRG 10+ year member]

I have a 300zx twinturbo and i want so bass in the car but don't want alot of weight.

I have an integra gs-r that is going ot have a phoenix gold TI Elite 12" which im going ot make into a comp car. but i just want something to sound good and not make alot of extra weight

I'd go with one ten or a couple of 8's...even w/ the heaviest of those subs you won't notice a difference...unless you're racing le mans or something.

I know a guy who put 3 Diamond Audio CM3 8" subs in the back of an s2000. and he is a very performance oriented person. They sound good too.

i know for us BMW 3 series owners many people use JL Stealth Boxes. The go in to ur rear deck and replace ur rear speakers. They suposedly sound awesome never heard them tho and im not sure if they go in other cars but i think so.

I seriously the weight of a sub is going to make any noticeable difference in the performance of the car.

if ur lookin for lightweight for racing ur car why dont u loose a few pounds then? u will notice the same advantage in performance as using a really lightweight sub.... wich is nothing. (unless of course ur a really fat mofo and loose 100lbs or something)

but if u need a lightweigh sub because of a weak box or something id say go with any of the other suggentions. now seriously it wouldnt make a diference.

for every extra hundred pounds in ur car it takes away .10 of ur time in the 1/4 mile

 

[94yodapickup 10+ year member]

sry i ment adds .10 not takes away....

why dont you just make it so you can take the box out problem solved if your worried about that tenth in the 1/4
