New to me Roadster

ToplessCherry · 04-01-2018, 08:18 PM

I'm finally a part of the forum after almost 7 months of owning the car hahaha.
I have a 2010 Black Cherry Roadster that I stole from a dealership with only 50k miles on it last fall.

Since Sept. I have installed Stillen G3 intakes, Fast intentions CBE with 12" resonators, ART test pipes, Z1 diff bushings, Z1 subframe collars, Z1 diff cover, Redline diff fluid, and Z1 shift knob.

Future plans include brakes, ported upper and lower plenums, clutch & flywheel, tune, and upgraded stereo.

If anybody has any advice on where to put aftermarket subs and what size etc please hit me up. I really want to install an aftermarket system as the factory bose unit is good but not up to my standards.

Looking forward to being able to join in on the forum finally and glad to finally join the family.

welcome, sounds like the modding is going nicely, but remember they like to run, so drive it hard.....

I do love the color but at the same time I am finding it hard to find wheels that look good with this color.

Also I have started a custom sub box pronject. I have quickly realized that roadsters have no room for subs so trunk was just out of the question quickly. I decided on the rear shelf areas behind the seats. My first mock up box looks to only be big enough for an 8 inch sub so it looks like I will be running an 8 behind each seat. Pics and info to come

I know I have seen this so many times with the Roadster Z they are very limited in room. If you are looking into installing subwoofers into your roadster it is possible but your options are limited though. I know two people with Roadsters that were able to fit Alpine 10” Type R thin subwoofers and Alpine compact powered 8” subwoofer system in their Roadsters. I found that Alpine makes quite a few products that fit our Z’s Coupe or Roadster. Post some pics up of your work if you can it will help the people here.
