I will say it can be annoying to put on. Use the rounded end of a screwdriver to help push the matting into corners/curves

I think it is time for bed. :yawn:

reps out :tup: how's everyone doing today?

I've got some leftover GT Mat Onyx I do not plan on using. It comes in 12"x12" squares. They sell the stuff for $12/square online, but I got the hookup via Ms. Pint a few years back when she was working for them. I think I've got at least 15 sheets you can have for cheap if you want. Just PM me :tiphat:

Damn. I just ordered from Amazon and it shipped. I appreciate the offer JAR> If this stuff doesn't work out well, I'll let you know.

Although it sounds like you already ordered some.

And to be clear... Dynamat and similar butyl (or asphalt :ugh:) products are designed to reduce vibrations more than decibels. They are heavy and are not intended for full coverage as I have learned - sporadic application in key areas is all that should be needed. If you're looking to noticeably reduce decibel levels, you will need closed cell foam. It also weighs a lot less than dynamat, so you aren't adding 75 lbs of the stuff to your car's weight :twocents:

sssup itches.

Mainly vibrations. Have some weird stuff happening in the hatch at speed. Really becoming annoying. The rest I will just experiment with in different areas.

You mentioned rattles, so it makes sense that you would be looking at some butyl to lay down. I just wanted to point out there is no need to go overboard with it. I did my entire hatch with the stuff, which was just totally unnecessary and did not help as much as I had hoped. You should never need to use 50+ lbs of the stuff like Clam mentions - you'll get much lower decibel readings with strategically placed butyl and full coverage in CCF. I learned the hard way.

I eventually decided not to go forward with anything else cause racecar. I'll be removing the stuff in the hatch at some point in the future - not looking forward to that.

I just used that much because the rep for Ballistic sound deadening gave me a shitload so I decided what the hell lmao I still have more somewhere

Happy hump day all!

I basically did the same thing - Ms. Pint was a rep for GT Mat and hooked me up with a lot for very little. After the install, my friend's audiophile/car enthusiast brother scolded me for weighing down my sports car unnecessarily :icon17:

Reserved our ride on the disney magical express from when we arrive at the airport. I have the luggage tags and brochures being shipped to my gf's house to surprise her some more and get her more excited.

Good thing you're sound deadening your car - anything to minimize a visually rocking exterior?

sounds like your friend's brother doesn't know too much about car audio :icon17:

This was a pretty interesting read.

Lifted 4x4 brotruck with a stiff suspension. (I just cringed typing that)

Ever since Kernchan left, we have had a lot of new members popping up in here. It's no longer EW painus, Madwi gaming, leingod insanity, and OnZ flyovers.

Anyone talk to or heard from Njobe? He also has been gone for quite a while.

Pho for lunch. Not the best choice on a hot day, but damn good! Now I want to nap

Pho is never a bad option. We have an authentic vietnamese place that does homemade pho noodles. Out of this works. And real spring rolls with mint and vermicilli.

Although the generic pho place we also have does make amazing chicken lettuce wraps. Idk what seasoning or spices they use, but the chicken is downright mind blowing.

:yum:

Oh COME ON! If you're going to freaking get caught watching porn when the freaking IT GUY walks by... at least make it midget donkey fetish!! Not some take missionary stuff.

:icon17:

Please tell me it was up on a large monitor as well :rofl2:

24 inch flat panel IPS display! 99% adobe RGB color accuracy!!

Let's just say he is no longer here. woof.

You know you have a good tech guy when he is lip syncing taylor swift songs whole soldering a new charge port on a laptop.

There is a 1978 280z for sale on the S30 FB group. It's in El Mirage, AZ and looks in great shape. Anyone here near there and would be willing to help a brotha out?

Not good enough. Actually sing the songs

I would but I don't feel like murdering a cat.

Dang, this artist I like a lot is doing his first US tour and is playing in Dallas on the 24th this August... But I'll be in Longview at my university :( :( :(

I remember one time I was at work doing a remote start and "everytime we touch" started playing I said **** it and started singing along. My supervisor at the time basically did this :wtf2:

10 days until Cali!

I'm so happy I don't have to deal with that stuff anymore! Loved being a part of the community but not the actual work lol.

:excited::excited:

Weekend officially here for me :D I think I am heading to Toronto tomorrow with my brother for a tour and to pick up some tires for his Vette.

Some homemade smash burgers for dinner followed by some pepto bismol for dessert.

Im hungry and dont know what I want to eat. :mad:

jimmy johns #5 w/ hots and sprouts?

Tacos!!!

Those nachos you had a few weeks ago?

meh, had JJ last night, tacos the night before. I probably will get a boring ol turkey wrap, if they have avacado. Maybe just some sweet potato fries and call it good.
