[Mit L200 Triton] Shok Industries Demo Car ( SQ Ground Pounder)

[headshok 0]

Hi guys,

 

Its finally time to get my personal truck done up as a demo truck

 

Down here in Singapore, cars cost a bomb ( literally) and well, my daily ride has to also be my work ride and my demo ride

 

I drive a Mitsubishi L200 Triton. Its not sold over in the US, but its available over in Europe, South America and Australia

 

As much i would love to own a Tundra crewmax V8, our laws on vehicles suxs balls down here

 

The engine is 2.5L Turbo Diesel.

 

Trucks a Dual Cab.

 

Here's some pics of the truck bone stock.

 

The dam dealers here basically rip you off and sell you the most basic version of the truck ( trucks arnt so popular down here)

 

 

 

Truck looked horrible when i first got it. But thanks to eBay, i brought in a bunch of goodies for the truck

 

My plan for this truck is simple. It will be a SQ Ground Pounder.

 

Why SQ? Down here, competition SQ is big. But i'm a bass head.

 

There have always been people saying " you cant have a SQ car that gets loud", So basically i'm here to prove them wrong.

 

This is what's going into the truck

 

Deck: Alpine #F1 DVI 9990 + H9990 Processor

 

Speakers: Ground Zero GZPC 165 kit + GZPM 100 mid range ( 3 way active)

 

Front stage amps: Ground Zero Reference 4xs ( tweets + mid range) + Ground Zero 2xs ( mid bass)

 

Woofers: SHok 2.5k 18" x 2

 

Woofer amps : Shok Big Daddy ( Aka 8.5k)

 

Batteries: ABX AGM batteries, 75 aH, x 10 pieces

 

Power Cable: Shok Reference Pro 5285 CCA cable through out

 

RCA and Signal cable : SHok FLO series

 

Alternator : Mechman 270A charging at 15.2v daily

 

For SQ comps there will be a smaller 10" woofer fabricated somewhere up front just for the competition ( 18" will be off).

 

keep a look out for more info!

Well, first thing that had to go were the shitty ass tyres and rims.

 

The main thing was, i got a set of rims for like $300 !

 

So it was off to get some new rubber.

 

I opted for the Yokohama Geolander, 265/70/16 ( rims were 16")

 

 

 

After i installed the tyres, i figured out why the owner sold them to me for cheap

 

 

 

rims had a -50 offset, making them SUPER ILLEGAL on the local roads!

 

looked nice though

 

 

 

after driving around with them for a day, i got super paranoid ( got many thumbs up from fellow SUV drivers on the road), they had to go until i found out how to get them covered up!

hi guys,

 

sorry for going missing for awhile, been busy with work

 

Anyway, here's some more pics of the install.

 

I had a new set of fenders shipped in together with some bush rangers rubber fenders to cover up the wheels so that the truck will be more " road legal".

 

So here's some pics of the truck's exterior done up

 

 

 

I came across this stock evo 9 intercooler on one of the local forums for like $80, so went ahead and had it installed:)

 

Truck's chipped up to around 200hp and 500nm torque. gonna need to power to haul around daily what i have planned inside

 

stock intercooler

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

next up was my alternator upgrade.

 

I had mechman make me a 270A alternator. Since my truck is not available in the US, i had to send him an alternator for matt to customs build the whole alternator for me.

 

Bad thing about this truck is that its a BITCH to remove the alternator

 

 

 

 

 

this is what the alternator's gonna charge

 

 

 

here's a video of the alternator in action!

 

15v charging ftw!

 

I would have loved to run some XS Power, but shipping them to my location would just be insane.

 

I worked with a local distributor on these batteries. they are ABX AGM batteries, 75aH a piece so 10 pieces in the back, 1 95AH one up front

 

Done with all the boring stuff, next up, all the audio goodies!

 

stay tuned!

hi guys,

 

so here's an update of whats going inside the shok demo truck and also some pics of them

 

Head unit.

 

Alpine #F1 DVI 9990 + H9990.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For speakers front stage:

 

I'll be running Ground Zero GZPC + GZPM 3" high mid, 3 way active setup

 

 

 

 

 

 

For sub stage,

 

I'm using 2 Big Shok V1 18" woofers

 

 

 

 

 

To power the subs will be the Shok Big Daddy!

 

 

Battery Bank will be 10 pieces of ABX AGM 75aH batteries in the back

 

 

Power cable used in this truck will be my Reference Pro CCA 5285 strands 1/0 awg cable

 

You may wonder why I choose to use this cable when i have access to the Competition and Elite in my store? I have great confidence in my entry level 1/0 awg product. I stand behind my entry level 1/0 awg cable

 

 

Now for my front stage amps

 

I'm using 2 pieces of Ground Zero Reference XS amps, 1 4 x 120 watt amp and another 2x 200 watt amp

 

here's some pics of the amps and some gut pics

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We did some prior testing with these amps, some interesting AB results .

 

these are the little brothers of the big reference series amps .

 

anyway, stay tuned for more !

 

cheers all!

hi guys!

 

Sorry for going missing for some time, but anyway, here's some more install pics of the system.

 

The front stage will be a 3 way active one. Tweets and mid range will be in the A pillars.

 

So here we go:

 

guys decided to try a new way to get the base of the pillar to mould to the dash

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Driver side

 

 

 

 

 

 

wrapping it up

 

 

 

 

 

some putty

 

 

 

 

and its ready

 

 

 

 

keep a look out for more!

Now its time for the doors

 

I got a hook up with STP down here. Used their bomb on the doors .

 

Down here, we have tested STP against dynamat extreme and STP is the really hardcore stuff! Your door will never feel the same when you have the bomb installed! hahaha..

 

what's unique abt STP is that they offer various sound dampening/ sound insulation products that go hand in hand. Thus unlike the old convention sound dampening methods whereby u only have 1 kind of mat on the door, with STP, you can have 3-4 different kinds of mats in the door that when combined together, produce the best sound insulation results

 

also, had the door pods made for the 6" drivers.

 

some pics for you guys

Another layer of STP sound insulation goodness to absorb road noise

 

 

 

outer layer

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and the final layer to damp out any stray vibrations anywhere

 

 

the door speaker mounts

 

 

 

 

 

Next up, some wiring fun. heheh,, stay tuned!

They are hungry for power also. With 10 batteries in the trunk, I guess it´s not gonna be a problem, lol.
