Heyyyyyy congrats on the Altima, lovely and fun car. Pimp it out and come show it off in MD :tup:

do you also happen to make custom sub boxes? I already have the amp, sub and wiring kit (trying to sell here but no luck, so i might as well throw it in my car lol) and I'm looking to have someone help me make a sub box to fit in my spare tire compartment. non-370Z though.

thanks.

Thanks man I am loving it however not loving the team nissan dealership. Oh well




As for the question about the sub box I can make one we would have to discuss what you want it made out of and what size and depth the sub is also how much air space it needs.

Bump!!! :tup:

Question....I'm planning on getting a base model and upgrading the sound. What do you think about this setup?

Alpine w910
Jl hd 900/5
Stereo Integrity 12" sub
Alpine H800 processor
Still deciding on what components to get and whether to go 2 way active or 3 way (passive or active)

I see you are very knowledable with audio equip, so your help is appreciated.

I'd be interested in a basic sealed box since those are smaller and easier to build. After looking into it, not really wanting the ported box.

Material - I'm not sure, 1/2" birch with fiberglass resin inside is what I hear people recommend for best quality, but I am open to what you suggest as well since you're for sure more knowledgeable about this than me.

What would the typical turnaround time be for building a simple sealed box...say 12"x12"x9"?
Thanks.

I would go with everything except the stereo integrity sub. Look at a alpine type r or a Hertz instead.
