Soundproofing?

[daught]

I am looking for something to soundproof my supra. My main focus is something to put behind the plastic panels as they seem to rattle.

Dynamat. About the best stuff you can buy.

Dynamat or Rynoliner. Thats pretty much it.

rynoliner + supra = TANK!

all you need now is a turret...hehe...

I am looking for something I can stuff rather than glue or paint on. SOmething like the pink stuff they use in walls, but it whould not act like a sponge.

Try this site; <www.aircraftspruce.com> Look under soundproofing and insulation.

Insulation? Are you sure you're not lamborosa? :nono:

Get some thin foam from a foam shop. I've solved a few rattling panels this way.

To fix squeaks and rattles, use adhesive foam tape (weatherstripping). If you are looking to soundproof the car (from outside noises) go for a good butyl sound deadening product (I used elemental designs edead - dynamat is overpriced and overrated)

That doesn't look very thick. How's the sound inside?

 

[adampecush]

It is 3 layers thick on the floor (it conforms extremely well)...Judging by the knock test, it is significantly better than the old sound deadening. As for when driving, the car is still disassembled, so no dice on that yet.

 

[whudafux]

Wow. How thick are the layers before you apply them? Would you happen to know how well it repels heat? I'm glad this topic came about. I was about to go shopping for some shortly. I don't recall the brand I was going to go with a while ago but ill do some googling and see what I can come up with.

EDIT - I found it. www.b-quiet.com

45 mils is the specified thickness. From what I've been told by people that have used similar products, there is a significant improvement in heat insulation as well.

tighten the peices up, they shuoldn't rattle. My 92 is very quiet inside. i dont hear it running at all.
