And yeah the line has come a long way, even in the 6 years i've been there, although i would like the amps smaller in size, fitting them in was a bitch! But the shallow subs are awesome! i was able to keep the box under about 6" high and still have full access to the spare. I may swich to 2 of the TT6510's though, just for a little more output.

It's been done for a couple months, just did post up all the pics, besides the only thing you can really see is the deck and sub box, everything else is hidden.

I used 2 boxes of the DS3030 (floor/hatch) and about 1/2 of a box of the DS3015 doors, roof, ect...

On the z I would only worry about matting the doors and the trunk that is all you really need to do.

As I have said before the z is even more quite than my civic is.

Your civic must be a real beauty? The Z has a horrible drone sound especially on less than perfect pavement. Hands down the loudest car I have ever driven, well before I did the Dynamat treatment anyway.

Damping material is not only to reduse road noise, it also helps keep the sound in the car...and once you have a 370 and have drivin it for any real time on the hwy you'll know why just doing the hatch and floor isn't enough. when i was building IASCA cars in the mid 90's you get to learn why you cover all you can.
