GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Here is my vibe. Not much to say about it. Few mods... Stereo, clutch, rims etc. Not sure what I want to do yet.

Nice Vibe, I'm a fan of those rims, and that sub looks beast. Any plans for future mods?

Yeah! I've got a bunch of great ideas and since it has been payed off for the past 2 years, I have kept depositing money into an account like I was still paying it. It's a nice chunk of change but I'm still crunching numbers on the things I want to do to it. Turbo, Full Thermal Research exhaust (modified), and lowering springs are a definent. Things I'm looking into consist of lambo doors (front and back), full carbon fiber body wrap, custom front clip, 6 speed, JSP hood and internal engine work. I'm still trying to figure it all out.

I'm typically not a fan over rims other than 5 spokes, but man those are extremely sharp!!!

Thank you. I've loved these rims for years!

I'm definitely a fan Eric !

We really need to get a Chicagoland meet setup some time soon!

I would be down for that!

That sub must sound awful nice, I think the enclosure is bigger than mine!

That sub is almost 10 years old. It's a JL12W6. Building boxes was my specialty when I was working as a MECP certified car audio installed. The box is a 2.135 cubic foot ported enclosure with a 18.745"x 13.5"x2" internal port. The interior of the box has been sound deadened to improve sound and low frequency drop offs. I spent about 2 weeks designing the box for optimal sound and SPL on a computer program. Once everything was done it was time to hook up the amp (Kicker amp because it has a unregulated power supply) and wire it to run at 2ohms. The final product actually hit louder then I thought. Registered 128.7 decibels. Not bad for one sub.

Meeting with Kitt222 in Hampshire, IL on his way to the Erie meet on July 7th!

What my wife and I originally paid for the 2004 Vibe 5-speed "sport".

Very Nice! Liking that Black fade out on the doors! Also very nice system setup, 128 db on one 12 is killer! For a bet I through some cheapo 2 Dual 12's in Banpass box in my Vibe, ended up hitting 140db and won 50 dollars from my buddy! The bet was I couldnt hit over 100db.

Anything is possible with the right box. I've seen 4 12's from Radio Shack in a nice box sound better then a high end set up.

I am digging your rims. Ive been on your thread a few times before, not sure why I am all into them now They look real sweet!
