very nice. i am very glad to see somebody on the forum with an spl based system that is actually deadening with good material //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
and wow 5 gallons of spectrum sludgei bet that was fun. im looking forward to doing 2 gallons of spectrum underneath my car in about a month

Yea, the 5 gallons was fun, it was pretty darn good stuff too //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Looks good, cant wait to see the finished product
How hard was it to get the door skin off and do most cars pull off? My car door is a tad rusty on the lower rear door and I didnt know they came off like that.

Mine's a saturn, so it'll be easier than yours //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif ....but it just had like 6 bolts with torx heads to get it off, pretty simple

As for you belt issue it looks like you may be using em but look at goodyear gatorbacks

Nice job so far man. Are those Omegas gonna be able to handle that SS?

I know it does like 7k+ @ 14 volts

Yea, I need a 5-rib, 79.8 inch long belt...and ive looked around and it seems nobody carries anything within 2 inches of that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif...I may have to ghetto-rig 6-rib belts by cutting off a rib but thats just so janky //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

My 18" BTL is taking it daily on 1 ohm like a champ...as long as I didnt go full-bore for excessive time periods it was perfectly fine....so I'd hope the pair of these can handle it, lol

Im off for a while though...more progress as it happens //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Any reason u didn't go for a full wall?? You're gonna be taking out your backseats anyways.

anybody know the benefits of the design on the Omegas as far as the surround being like 1.5" tall??

 

[Pioneer~Saturn 5,000+ posts]

I didnt go for the full wall because, honestly, it doesnt appeal to me...this is still my daily driver and a wall is just not in the cards imo (for my car atleast...I'd love a wall in other types of vehicles)...and the subs will stay fairly hidden from passer-by's since they'll be behind my seats and below the window line.

As for the Omega's surround etc...I'd ask Alex (terra) any questions...im sure he'd know //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

[shellfish 10+ year member]

holy **** man, i thought a single 18 was pushing it in a Saturn but you've taken it to another level,

this project gives me hope for my Saturn.

Looking solid so far and like everyone else i can't wait to see this thing finished.

 

[rumblebee2 10+ year member]

almost forgot how much wire you had ran.

 

[98AckCL23 10+ year member]

Can't wait to see this thing done... Hopefully you can finish up by the May 16th show. Looks awesome so far, and I'll definitely be checking back for this one...
