Gratz on the win!

couldn't do it without Corksport!

it's time for Audio! i will be keeping things very simple & clean with this car. going for a very tight, crisp bass, with lots of clarity through the components. the PG are one of the best bang for your buck components on the market, and the Alpine PDX amp lineup speaks for themselves.

this will be very different from my last audio build... new goodies on order are

Alpine SWR-823D
Type-R 8" subwoofer with dual 2-ohm voice coils
http://www.crutchfield.com/S-1yWiVDgKLFg/p_500SWR823D/Alpine-SWR-823D.html

Alpine PDX-V9
5-channel car amplifier — 100 watts RMS x 4 + 500 watts RMS x 1
http://www.crutchfield.com/p_500PDXV9/Alpine-PDX-V9.html?tp=35808

2 pairs
Phoenix Gold RSd5cs
5-1/4" Radial Sd Series 2-way Component System RSd5cs
http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_7339_Phoenix-Gold-RSd-5cs.html



so my last audio build was a bit insane and loud for most... but i loved it! going somewhat opposite with the Mz2!

12" JL Audio W7
Focal 165 A1 Front Door Speakers
Hertz ECX 570 Rear Door Speakers
JL Audio Slash 1000/1v2
JL Audio Slash 300/4v2
Pioneer Avic-x920bt

So you will have some trunk space in the 2 then?

 

[UnZipHer15]

the idea is to build a somewhat stealth setup so i still have usable space in the trunk... so yes!

[Its a Demio]

Just finished reading this entire build thread. Amazing unzipher, just amazing. You've definitley opened up the realm of possibilities. I can't wait to see more. MOAR!!!!

 

[UnZipHer15]

I hope so, and Thank you!


Alright... So forum fest was today! Another show and another award!y local forum Mazdasnw.com took home best forum rep for the third year running! We had roughly 40 cars!

I was fortunate to win 2nd place 5dr Mazda!

 

[Protege03ak46]

I want a recount! Nwb had 41! Haha. But seriously, congrats on the win. It was great to see you bro!

 

[UnZipHer15]

You too my friend! Was such a surprise to see you!

 

[joka1]

Wish I could have attended.Congrats on the belt and badass for MazdasNW for the 3 peat!!......... Can't wait for a heads up battle

Rob

 

[UnZipHer15]

i don't want a heads up battle with you... you've got like 10 years of build progress on me

 

[Clod_King]

You are doing really spectacular work here! I really cannot believe how much work you've done on this thing.... It's truly a breath taking example of the 2. Jeez.... I think I hate you, hahaha.

But really, you doing this much work and getting so much acclaim and coverage does us all a good service. You're opening doors and helping the 2 become recognized as a viable platform to be modded by both the general public, and the manufacturers. Really excited to see where this all ends up!

Gratz on the belt! It is a good start for the trophy room.

[UnZipHer15]

Thanks Derrick! hopefully i can keep the collection growing

 

[clement_ghost]

That's the best M2 I've seen buddy! Really nice and clean. And don't worry about people saying useless things about your project, there is different ways to get somewhere...

The only thing missing is a nice little turbo setup and then you're gonna have an official "Mazdaspeed2"

Keep us posted man!

 

[UnZipHer15]

i would love to turbo the car but i will wait until my warranty is up... which gives my plenty of time to do everything else
