XTR3 hohoho~ boom~!

Life was boring.... with out mango at my side. So i went to any petrol-head's favorite hanging place, 'chop-shop' and saw this lying around.
Actually it had been lying there for ages. probably since march. And no one would take it home. Why? one of the woofer is 'faulty' aka broken~ * but a closer examination, i found out the cause was the woofer's spider bracket came off - possibly due to excessive 'booming' nothing not fixable here ^.^~~

So i offer my fello seng, a price he would go mad for the subwoofer(2X-orion XTR3)+amp (boyds300)+box (^^,) but he'd let it go at the end :P lol~ who would buy a piece of broken sub woofer??!!
After some patience patch job, the xtr3 was up and running again ^.^ and it work fine~ clean and solid bass start pumping out of the box.

you all must be asking if i was to put the subwoofer in mango? The answer is YES. i need the extra weight to put mango's rear speed down on the pavement. and it was perfectly heavy~ hohoho~

p.s. - 37KG in exec. It's a darn 1.2inche thick HDF board afterall lol~

37 kilos is massive for a pair of subs!

But heck, I love how this project is shaping up. Streetable, and trackable with matching tunes to boot!

I hope Silver will grow up to be like Mango some day.

the sub is not that heavy scav. the box is ^.^ ~ gaga~

your silver is a in lot better shape and build than mango bro~ diff time frame and design~ ;) silver already had a very good chassis and suspension design coming out of the box already~

But the effort and work that went into Mango, Silver will never see.

However much I wish to.

I wanna touge with Mango soon. Everyone's progressed so far these past few months, in terms of skill and build.

Scav~ It's a different story. Mango is an old school legacy (for me) it's worth the effort and time to restore him to his glory pass.

You also had putting down a lot of time and tyres on silver to perfect him for the touge of TB~ just it wasn't shown on everyone's eye (^^,) ~

let's keep up the work on our rides to make it better for us ^^~ cheers~

p.s. i think i'm rusting... after 5 months of mangoless.... T_T...
