Looks good. Kinda matches. The suede is a little off-color.

its pretty close the camera flash kinda makes it look bad. besides trying to find suede was hard enough.

Did you do the red stitching yourself? Where did you find the materials?

I had an idea the other day to reupholster my Del Sol seats with suede, tweed, and red stitching.

He stated there 6inch.

I'm wondering how it sounds ?

A lot of time has gone into making this from the looks of it, its definantly unique and honestly looks amazing.

The geek in me likes the way the added weight is down low and in the center of the vehicle. That's probably the best place (weight distribution wise) in the car. I may have to keep your idea in mind when I build my box. The only thing to keep in mind... as if a type-r wasn't already a thief magnet...

Not bad, but I wouldn't exactly call it "stealth" with the big JL logo on top.

Acoustically speaking, wouldn't the subs have sounded better in the trunk area? They certainly would have been more stealth and not taken up passenger space.

I do like how you covered them up though in the ITR-like fabric.

That's really cool. I dig it Unfortunately my buddies would have those subs kicked in within the first night out . Not only did I take my back seats out for the roll bar and weight saving but to also keep the goofnuts outta there

Specs for those woofers:

Sealed Enclosure Range: 0.15-0.20 cu.ft. (4.3-5.8 liters)

Ported Enclosure Range: 0.20-0.33 cu.ft. (5.8-9.3 liters)

I'm an audio idiot, but are those boxes that large? Seems like you could create a much better box in the trunk. That's what I was referring to.

That truely is very unique. Without the JBL insignia on top, it would look alomost factory to someone unfamiliar with Integra's. Love it. Great work and effort.

Oh yeah - File a patent before this is sold worldwide tomorrow by some large audio company.

the subs are 6" theres two of them. one like mine probably....well if i did it at work legit price like a grand. it took a long time. also i dont have to worry about people kicking them really because of the angle on them and, well i dont carry people alot in the back. the box is like. 36 ft3 a little less i think but any bigger it wouldnt work they way i wanted it to. it sounds great especially it being behind my seat. i could get a little more output on it but im using a small amp and a type r deck. i plan on throwing some nav in there but im attached to my stock radio. oh ya im posting so many things on one because im a damn noob i guess and this is the only posting i can do today.
