    MKIV R32 Custom Install

    Hiiii..

    Heres my Custom Install in Progress

    Idea: 2x 8 inch Dual Coil Subwoofers concealed behind standard trimming each coil to be ran at 400wrms

    RE RE8 are the Subwoofers
    RE RE6s are the 6 inch components for upfront

    Alpine CDA 9887 is the HU i will be running

    Alpine 5 Channel Amp

    you get the picture?

    Looking good dude, Its good to see you securing your wiring down.

    400WRMS per coil, is that all the 8inch can handle lol

    Depending on how it finishes, it definately look like one of the best stealth idea's I have seen in a long time.
    Bora has gone ;( Custom sub box and beige floor mats to suit for sale.

    Nah man its all my amp can put out

    she cracked 140db with the old setup so.. its more than enough for me..

    its not going to be entered in to comps or anything

    FYI

    The Concept of the install was a very ugly love child by my mate Hennie... hes the resident Audio Guru on eurosport.org.nz he has done some pretty crazy installs and owns enough audio equipment thats unused he could kit out a fleet of cars..

    No, no sarcasm.

    Genuinely interested in your progress.

    I had someone like that planned also. So far I've only managed to get my old Boston Pro 6.5's in the car.

    Link below if you wanna have a look - but from all accounts, you guys have got it all sorted.

    Glidn has started Assembling both halves of the sealed boxes

    Not alot of progress has been made of late as we have both been excessivly busy!





    Running the 4AWG Power Wire tonight and will be making up my Stereo Wiring harnes.. (I never used the vehicles proprietry radio harness.. i tape it up and zip tie it out of the way..

    We source power for the H.U. directly from the battery and source the Accessory Signal else where

    i do this so the car can be returned to stock standar with ease at any stage!!

    will get some more photos tonight.. hopefully i will be able to install the strut brace also!
