6 15" subs in a civic?
What the hell for ? Why not and because I can. I know most, well ok, almost all of you could care less but ---- it, I'll post em up anyways. I turned my quick civic into a ------ tank! She is still faster than most ricers just a little louder hehe. We needed another "shop" car (ok not really) and I decided to kick back to the lets go deaf ages. It was a personal challenge and I wanted to do a straight old school beat down wall behind the "b" pillar. This just means its time for another car and turbo project! A few pics for you.
Here she is so far. 6 15" subs stuffed in my tiny Civic. The carpc setup will be purdy you guys will like it! Give me a few more weeks of building and I should have some newer pics for you but for now, enjoy!
First we must gut!
Then after 3 days of measuring, calculating and drawing we get to cut some wood woohoo! This is just the front board and yes it is fitted to the car lol super tight fit.
The enclosure pre-assembled after a test fit in the car. Next is break it down and final assembly in the car all glued and screwed. No it does not just slide right in it has to be assembled inside the car piece by piece. Look at that port!
Update: got her in there. Now the fun ---- begins heh. Trim panels, final wiring and the entire backhalf. Sigh...
The front half is ALMOST done, cleaner pics to come these are a few from the weekend. Theres a few panels that need to be matched etc. and the doors yet. But for the most part the "wall" is basicaly finished up.
Sidewall flex? Nah!
Roof is in. Roof console is done, wired and in just no pics yet.
One of the many trim pieces. These look simple but let me tell you they are a bitch! 1/16" clearence between these and the outer upper subs. I used double sided tape to compensate for vinyl clearence
One of those bitch pices installed and keeping seatbelts! Now to match those a pillars...
Use your imagination.
