Beemerkid is right LC2i for the stock HU, just not too sure about having to replace all the speakers. I changed to an aftermarket HU in my old 350z and the Bose speakers worked fine. Should be the same with 370z I believe. I did have the shop do it because I was still learning about this stuff before, so maybe they did something special to it to make it work with the stock speakers.

I had a 12" in my new 370z, stock Bose HU, sounded great tbh, even turned up, but I'm not an audiophile. The OEM Bose sub was a bit too subtle for me so I just snipped it and left it in the spare.

As far as the Zenclosures box what sub are you getting? Make sure to pay attention to the air space for the box and the requirements for the sub, because the Z box I had was way too small, so I'm going with the 10" route instead now. Heard a 10" sundown in person and it slapped harder than my 12" in the wrong box.

Im not too tech-head with audio..
I was looking at type-r alpines with an alpine mx55? Not sure if thats the correct amp name..
I would like the best possible clean bass without shattering my rear window or be a nuisance to public.
Had been debating 1 12, 1 10 or 2 10s as i know the box will most likely be small as i purchases one from zenclosure for my g35 coupe running one 12, it slaps too hard i would say.. Too much bass hit as well as not being too clear; if i can remember i was running a hifonics or a MDX 1000w with a alpine type s.

I went through Alpine's site and the requirements and you'll have to do adjustments even for the Z box, but it should have enough air space for that sub in a sealed box.

If you think a single 12 in a G35 slapped too hard, I would recommend going with a 10". Our cars (370z) don't have an actual trunk and you're limited in how you want to set your box up.

I would suggest getting the wiring done because you'll need that regardless, and then go to an audio shop who will generally let you hook up some sample 12's or 10's and you can decide what route to go with, and they can suggest a more proper amp for the sub you choose. You could also test out different brand subs. I'm not too familiar with Alpine as I was aiming more for an SPL build than SQL, but that never happened because the specific subs I wanted just required too much room.
