Did some test fitting today!

[Curry]

Well I finally got my electrical system back up and running. Today I got back to working on the sub enclosures for my 19.Ov's. I basically sanded and applied a layer of bondo glass to reinforce the box.
I wanted to see how much space I would have between the sub magnet and the enclosure. It looks like its gonna be around 1 to 2 inches, MAYBE 3.
I'm still a bit worried about the amount of air space I'm going to have, but from the measurements and everything I took I should clear it. The sub will be a little extended from the point where the face sticks out.
But for now everything is fitting and going as planned.

You're nuts dude... I've never seen all of that in a Camry

[Anshu]

looks good. you afraid of the waves cancelling out?

[Curry]

I'm going to tilt them a little to opposite sides. There was a trick someone on an audio forum mentioned on using with a setup like this I have to look into later. But canceling is the least of my worries lol.

The person with a green car that had fiberglassing was of a supra...

That woofer is capable of moving a lot of air! How is the project going? Did you calculate the necessary enclosure volume based on its Thiele-Small parameters? If the enclosure VAS is too small, the low frequency response will be limited and the driver will require more power to counteract the acoustic suspension of a sealed enclosure. Also, the subwoofer will sound boomy with a large bump at about 80Hz. 3-4 cubic feet is more typical for that size driver (more than half your trunk space).

hey yea... I didnt even really realize that until now...

If your fiberglass enclosure is that small you are definatly gonna run into problems with air space...

[Curry]

Yea i'm working on calculating everything out. I may be able to expand even more to make the 2-Cu requirements. So far it looks good. Its been really cold here so I havent been able to do much more. Since I'm not doing the air suspension I have more space to work with.

Damn I wanna see this car finished. How long have you been at it?

[Curry]

Well I only started work on the car last year early 2006. Turbo should be ready very soon. I just need the weather to warm up so i can finish fiberglassing the sub enclosure.

I also need to get a hold of some coilovers.
