My friend in his GTR changed the speakers to Hertz mille 3 way componets, sound deadening, JL amps, and its a very simple clean install.

This is his build
AMGfan 2012 Godzirra Build - Tampa - NAGTROC - The Nissan GT-R Owners Club - Page 2

and I know you have a stereo /electronic shop and i figured this would all be a easy option for you.

I already changed my factory speakers out for Infiniti Kappas. I have an Infiniti Kappa5 5-Channal Amp on standby for the install. Right now its all still running off the factory BOSE amp. The only reason I havent added anything else yet is for weight. I was setting up the car for something else at first, but then changed my mind. Now that I have 2 nitrous bottles in the back, It also changed what my end goal was gonna be, as I didnt want to add too much weight to the back of the car and throw off the balance. So I am still up in the air as far as subwoofer(s) go & box. Any ideas?

OP: Let me know if you end up tinkering wit the MS-8. I am very interested in some hands on, independent reviews of this gizmo. It seems like a logical place to start to optimize the stock system and serve as a foundation for future audio upgrades.

BTW/RE: Subwoofer enclosures -- check out Boxology:

Another one "on my list."

Will do.

As far as the box, my nitrous bottles sit on both sides of the trunk, and also we can build our own in house.

Any ideas on the carputer stuff? I have no clue on who makes what, and I always want top notch stuff in my ride.

invest in a thorough detail and paint correction. one of the last pictures of your rear bumper looks like you have some swirlage going on. get a good polish and you will be drooling over your car like its new again

I think an IPL interior would be amazing, but it would probably be such a hassle to do nicely. You'd literally have to rip your interior apart and then fit everything back in--probably losing some factory install quality along the way. Probably something nice and aftermarket with a custom taste, that'll be cool! Just don't get rid of the comfy seats, lol. If I had money, I would have countless ideas for pimping my interior! We have guys here that can switch everything out to carbon fiber and custom everything.

I'm gonna go cry in the corner of my room now.
