Hey! thats my car on the Zenclosures site! Mike from Zenclosures is awesome, and all of his boxes are top quality. the upfire box is really cool because it saves a bit of space. i took the other box (2 10's) just on personal preference. I am really no expert on SQ and all that stuff, but my system bumps!

The other chambers add support to the enclosure and probably account for 1/2 the air space. I obtained permission to give these out: Dimensions: 32-5/8" Wide X 23" (Note this is the top measurement, the bottom is slightly different as it contours the rear of the car. I would have to pull the box out and that would be an act of God to remove it. The Box is 8" deep The Vent is 21" X 5" That is all I can measure. There are no plans, Kelly cut and fit each piece. It took him 3 days to build that box! I hope your carpentry skills are up to the challenge. |
Did you bolt it to the floor to keep it from rattling on the floor pan? Did you have to EQ the box a lot? What did you set your Xover to?
Very, very nice box. I'm truly impressed... |

Am I the only one confused? Please elaborate? |

I have to agree with the statement. But remember, ignorance doesn't mean stupid. It's a lack of information.

sorry about that. Mike from Zenclosures lives about 30 minutes from me and had asked to use my car for the mock ups for the boxes he has available for the 370z. basically, he used my car to make the boxes.
i was just excited because his website showing his different box configurations show my car. Quote:

He made the enclosure himself I can not speak directly about him but I am not sure that he will be mass producing them.

I like the upfire box cause it's smaller, lighter and looks like a better visual fit to me since it doesn't extend higher than the side panels. Overall goals for the car are much more performance oriented so I'm more concerned with having something that sounds better than stock, but it doesn't need to win any awards for SPL or SQ. Hence the desire for a pre-made box vs a custom built system. Ideally I'd find one that was half this size and held only one 8" sub and an amp :p If I go with just one sub I'll use a JL Audio 8W7, if two I'll go with something comparable but not quite so pricey so feel pretty comfortable with 8s over bigger subs. Thanks for the tips guys |
Yes sort of a night and day thing. The rear firing box will fire the sound back and than towards you. As where the up firing box will fire up than back down going rely no where.

NIGHT and freakin DAY as BigAudioFant already posted. Enclosure and location are a HUGE factor.

Sub Location

I am comtemplating adding a sub between the space tire well and the area in front of the strut bar (see pic). The dimensions are approx. 8" wide, 20" long, 7" deep. Any thoughts on the angle of the sub would be appreciated. :tup:
|
You could put like (3) 6" subs in there. That would rock! Then mount the amp behind the seat.
|
Not getting the right box for your sub is kind of like putting a 4 stroke in a Z. It's pointless to buy nice materials and not use them to what they were designed for.
And I must disagree about SQ stopping at 12"! It all depends upon the sub. I bet my 15" has as much if not more potential for SQ, linear travel, and motor force as most 12's. Try this for linear!! http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/h...v2/HAVOC15.jpg |
