Installed the JL stealthbox, JL 500/1 amp, and the premier 960mp HU, Enjoy:

 

Very nice head unit. What kit did you used?

 

do you have pics of the box from the seats looking back?

i wanna see how well it fits from that angle??

thanks

 

dude, I have been looking for a box just like that. Where'd ya get if from and how much? are those 12's?

 

The box is the JL stealthbox and it comes with the two 10inch W3 subs. I'll see if I have time to take some pictures tommorow of the other side.

visionboy: I'm not sure what you mean by kit, can you clarify? Thanks.

 

sweet picture on the h/u! and by kit, he means what dash kit? what amp do you have powering the subs? a 500/1 or something else?

 

I meant dash kit to hold the stereo...Metra? American International? etc? Looks really nice.

 

I put a picture of my car in the HU background, cool little option that came with the HU As for the dash kit, I threw the bag away, it came in a plastic bag, picked it up at one of my local audio shops for $15. The colors on the label were black and yellow. Sorry I couldn't be of much help, I was too excited installing I didn't bother reading who made it. For my amp, I'm running the JL 500/1 amp, might be selling it soon though.

 

why might you be selling the amp? and pics of where you put it?

 

I'm selling, because I will be going with another set-up. I stuck the amp in the compartment behind the drivers seat, where the stock bose sub fits. Might be able to take pictures later today.

 

thanks for all the info you gave me man. cant thank you enough. how much did the 500/1 amp run you?

-pat.

 

Anytime bro, The amp cost me close to about $450.

 

Nice! Good choice on the headunit. I went with the 940mp about 1.5 years ago. It is awesome. I assume your HU has the microphone to record sound in your Z's interior and adjust accordingly? I suggest you do it if you haven't already. Makes a huge difference in SQ.

I installed mine in the center of a brushed aluminum face plate which matches the door handles. Not a good picture, but....

Most importantly, how does it sound? With 10's i imagine it does get that low, but I'm sure you have some tight accurate bass? What type of music do you listen to?

 

I kept the stock speakers(non-bose), but overall, the sound quality is good. I tuned them a bit with my HU, so it's not all that bad. I listen to a lot of different types of music, mostly R&B, rap/hippop, and christian songs. The bass is nice and low and hits hard if I bump it (lights start to dim) even after I installed my capacitor, but I think I'm going to have to dynamat the rear hatch area. Overall I'm satisfied.

 

I ran a pioneer AVIC-N1 with a 12 disc changer and a 10W3 in a custom enclosure built to fit partly below the back truck floor (and partly above). Too out the Styrofoam spacer that went next to the spare tire and used that as a model for the fiberglass enclosure. Then angled my 10 about 30deg from horizontal and at about 45def toward the front and passenger side. Pushing a JL 500/1 and a 450/4 to 2 Diamond Audio Hex 6 1/2 separates in the doors and in the stock tweeter locations, and 2 DA Hex 5 1/4 separates behind the head rests with passive crossovers. It sounded extremely clean and hit very VERY hard. I listen to anything from NWA- Toby Keith- Madonna- Kenny G. It all sounds amazing. I am complimented by many on the quality of the sound. And I didn't give up anything except a space about 12 in (w) X12in (L) X 3in (h) in the trunk/hatch and the changer when in the glove box while the amps went where the stock sub would go.

I can't post pictures on the account that it's all on my garage floor at the moment. I just got my 05 and will be installing it in a few weeks (still working out some new car bugs with the dealership).
