Fiberglass Sub box in 370z roadster

butdamnbrian

im bumping this box/build because i really like the location.

does anyone else have a box in this location? has anyone built a box like this in a coupe?

what are the benefits/drawbacks to this location? OP, how is your box secured? Do you find the plastic rattles too much with the sub in that location? how is the sound quality having the sub firing forward in between the seats? what's the volume of the box?

here's a similar build from diymobileaudio (requires a log-in to see the pictures though):

Nissan 370z NISMO Edition. Simple Focal setup. - DIYMA.com

the sub location is very appealing to me because it doesn't require losing the spare tire or sacrificing trunk space. any more thoughts, guys?

what are the benefits/drawbacks to this location?
Benefits, saving a lot of space in the Z
Drawbacks, cant put a very large speaker in that location.

OP, how is your box secured?
the mold to the back space was such a good fit that it does not move at all when placed in there.

Do you find the plastic rattles too much with the sub in that location?
I have no rattle at all inside the car, or with any plastic pieces, but i still plan on putting dynamat inside of the door panels.

how is the sound quality having the sub firing forward in between the seats?
The sound quality is really good, i was surprised how good it sounded. I was afraid it would be to loud being close to my head, but its perfect its not to loud where its located and hits very hard for 250 watts.

what's the volume of the box?
Im not to sure what the volume is, i would say roughly around .9 cubic ft. It was mainly just to get the box to fit perfect back there.
