Congratulations to Brian (MiloX) for 2nd place at the IASCA world finals with his G!

I would like to congratulate Brian, aka, Milo X, for his second place finish at the IASCA world finals in his G sedan. He took second place both in the rookie class AND the SQC class whcih includes ANYONE who wishes to compete...this is an awesome feat and should be an inspiration for anyone who is looking to get a great sound quality out of their G35s

here are a few slected pics of brian's car, he ran dynaudio 8" 3 way set, two zapco amps, Ed sub, and alpine HU/processor combo

way to go bud!

Are those installed in the stock kicks?
I had a similar morel/vifa install with 8" 3-ways and was happy with it except for the fact that we had to make kickpanels for them that took up a little foot room.

Looks excellent, I bet it sounds great too. Congrats.

Thanks Bing. I appreciate the props fellas. I am glad someone posted this here. Link to the build page is here:

https://g35driver.com/forums/audio-video-electronics/161748-honey-i-blew-up-g.html

It's quite a long thread, but I really did my best to try to show each step in the process, and why I did what I did.

Here's a pic of the completed trunk:


Yes. The domes are mounted to fortified stock kick-panels, "bing-style". It's amazing what can be done with good domes. (DLS, DYN, ETC). Off-axis response is amazing. I just had to create some under-dash panels with acoustical foam and grill cloth to tame some of the early-reflection issues I encountered.

I also wound up making some acoustical panels for the sides of the console.

Bing, I really want to thank you publicly for the work that you have done. There is no way I would have gone the direction with the speaker location that I did if you had not forged the way with G and Z cars. Showing your posts to my audio advisor, good friend and team captain, Jeff Smith, gave him a sense of comfort that what I was doing was not in vain.

I have looked at this season all along as my "pre-season". It started on July 7th, and will be over after MECA finals. My "Real" season starts at SBN 22 in March.

Doing well at finals is very encouraging. I can't wait to hear how the car sounds this time next year.

Also, Noel (digitalhifi) took first place in Semi-Pro Street at the IASCA TKE event that was held in conjunction with World Finals. His G is gorgeous. Congrats bro!!!!!

Wow, not to be a thread-hogger but I'd buy a set of OEM coupe kicks with drivers if the opportunity presented itself.
I like the amp rack... does it fold down with the seat and all..?

The seats don't fold down. There will be changes for next year. Nothing too dramatic with the front stage...but the trunk will be different. The plan is to reclaim as much trunk space as possible. Not that I have an invasive install right now. But I want to push the limits of what a competition street car is all about.

I'm hoping to remod my car for IASCA once it becomes a full time project car.

Hey thanks man. What class are you moving up to next year? Are we going to be competing head to head next year in semi pro?
