I just bought a new head unit and have a 5 channel amp from a previous car. I also have a 10" sub but I'll have to come back and post the model to see if the air space is compatible.
We have sold many and have not heard anything about not fitting nismo models. Box should fit in the spare. Base model spare is a smaller diameter, nismo spare would be a bigger size but either way the box will fit inside.

We now have the Trunk carpet available with Z logo.

Any pics of the trunk carpet?

I purchased this enclosure for my Nismo 370Z, as soon as it arrives I will comment on fitment.

I have a 2010 Nismo. With the WickedCAS Box.
I must say I am a 100% satisfied with it. Shipping was quick, and the quality of the unit is far greater then expected....

Pro's: First off, it sounds frigging awesome. The sound is tight and the bass is exactly what I was looking for with the 13.5" JL sub.
It takes up nearly no space, and is very well made. It sits in the spare tire, and the way I mounted it it's not ubtrusive at all.
Con's:
There should be a way to lock it down or strap it down from WickedCAS. I ended up fabing something using straps wrapped around the spare tire base. The reason I did this was that if I hit a hard enough bump like rail road tracks or un-even pavement it would bounce and make a knocking noise.
Plus, in the event of an accident I did not want a 40lb box flying around the interior of the vehicle.

Lastly, I used poly fill after trying it without. It made a difference in the sound. It takes a lot less volume to get that JL Sub rocking.

I would strongly recommend a grill on the sub. I've dropped a few things on it already. Thank god it was there.



Anyway: here's a link to my install. Very, very satisfied with this setup.
Just yanked the z120BT Pioneer and replaced with Alpine W900BT

I got one of the first boxes that they produced. It fits in the NISMO just like it should. I kept the large styrofoam piece with the round hole in place and helps "secure" the box, but raises it by about an inch or so. I took pix, but haven't posted them up yet. I will get them in later on today (been slacking lately).

How much for the carpet? I need it bad.

Edit: A couple quick ones.......

Received mine on Thursday and installed Friday... remains wobbly and sits high despite several adjustments to spare and some trimming to surrounding Styrofoam pieces… any thoughts?
