It's an old car, with a woofer that makes up nearly 10% of it's weight.... if it moves enough air to get even one piece of the car shaking, that rattle can go anywhere it wants. Shocks and springs weren't designed to handle vibration coming from inside the car. (it's like how shaking your knee in the car and cause the whole car to sway).

But that kind of bass is silly. I think the point of SPL has been explored beyond what's sensible. I mean it was cool when people had a hard time maintaining 140db, but now, at over 160, what's the point? 177.1DB was the record set by pioneer in 2005... that is 100 000 000 000 000 times more sound pressure than what it takes to instantly rupture your eardrums.

you can rice out your car all you want, and you'd still be able to enjoy it everyday. The good thing about rice is that no matter how grotesque it is, it won't make you lose one of your 5 primary senses (you can't lose a sense of style if you never had one). I wouldn't enjoy the sub everyday, that's for sure.. give me crystal clear sound and lack of rattle anytime.
