Looking for volunteers and their z's
As the title says looking for a few z's to make a stealth box. I already know that others have theres out. But this will be hidden completely under the floor. Looking for people that want to keep and get rid of there spare tire. Please PM for more details.

Been watching your progress on the BMW install, looks great so far!
I'd be willing to volunteer, looking to keep my spare, but would you be willing to make a trip to Canada!? lol :ughdance: |
Omg Big, I would jump on this if i was in your area. You're right. I'm not very pleased with any of the "stealth" boxes out there because they are not stealth and you're limited to shallow subs. If you take a look at the S2000 JL stealth box, that's how a stealth box should be built. I had one and it was the best investment ever. The Wicked CAS magic box protrudes up top and if i wanted to show my sub, I'd have gone with a much flashier setup. If you can create something that is completely hidden, level, and can accommodate normal subs, sign me up! Gluck bro.

The problem CAS has run into is mounting depth, Its a good design but its tought to retain the spare and achieve proper airspace I will be working with Big on the fabrication end of things, Ive been working with fiberglass for 8 years and installing car audio for 10. My intention is to build a box that allows the spare to be retained and a box that loses the spare. There are very few solid options if you keep the spare.
I also have plans to do a prefab box that resembles the zenclosure to an extent but will have a fiberglass front face that can be matched to your cars color or done in carbon fiber. We're only looking for volunteers at this point, not trying to turn a profit |
Look forward to it Mike, another thing that we will be working on is incorporating a dedicated spot on the box itself for the popular alpine pdx5, considering many people are looking towards this option.

I think most that want a stealth box inside the spare (retain spare), realize that we will be most likely limited to a slimline sub. I am ok with that. A member here built a nice fiberglass box a while back that sat inside the spare and was flush with the top of the spare ......... the speaker didn't extend far enough up to protrude past the lip of the foam that sits on top of everything in the trunk....... a nice totally stealth look, and if you want, you could still cut out the carpet some and grill it. The CAS box is nice, but in trying to allow for deeper subs, and the owners desire for the 13", the box got bigger than I would want. Here is a link to the box I mentioned: http://www.the370z.com/parts-sale-pr...tml#post336969 I think this is more like what a lot of members had in mind when we said "keep the spare" ............... not that the CAS box isn't first rate, it is. |
We want to do but also allow people to select other options than just the JL slim line. We also want to have them to have a place made just for an amp as well. The biggest downfall that we have seen is that all the boxes have the subs protrude out of the trunk floor, where as our will not.

did u get my pm?
im in jersey! |
If height is a problem, why not build up the entire floor and create a false floor so that the sub is at level with the entire floor.
