The 2 6" JLs are an interesting idea, I picked up the 13.5" spare tire box used on the forum.

I also drove around without my Bose sub plugged in, I agree with Stewie, I didn't even miss it. I'm worried the 13.5 will be too much.

The entire set-up is awesome. The Hertz speakers are great, but I do recommend playing around with the EQ (DO NOT LEAVE EQ ON FLAT). I have the speaker Dynamat for the 6 1/2 in the door. Thnxs.......the 2 6'' are nicely hidden & still produce a very good punch, but depends on how much punch (bass) you want. As stated before both 6'' are b/w one 8'' & one 10''.

WOW....... the 13.5'' is effen heavy & a huge effen woofer. You will need a very good 500 watt amp for it. I hope you do not have your car lowered b/c I will guarantee you that if you put the 13.5'' with box (obviously) that your car will drop. The 13.5" was meant to go into a truck, suv, or a sedan & not really a sports car.

I have not heard the Bose stereo in the Z, so I would not know how it sounds with & w/o the SW. I can say this I bet the Bose speakers sounds a lot better than the base speakers (factory speakers) that come in the base Z & in the Nismo. The 13.5'' might be too much, but I would Dynamat the hell out of the car especially the trunk for sure.

Oh FYI....... You can still put two 8'' where the two 6'' are at.
