Thank you.

Exactly the kind of time I have been talking about. People talking 1 or 2 hours are just giving mis-information to the others here thinking about this. This is not a quick easy job. It's not hard per say, but it is tedious and long. It's also hard on your bum and your back and your fingers.

I used 43 Yards for the whole trunk so purchase the 50 Yard roll.

Thanks again, exactly what I've been saying. It took me 9 sheets @ 18 x36 to cover the entire hatch area. I had 1 sheet left (bought 10 sheets from FatMat), so I used the last sheet to double up on material over the front of the fender wells where most of the plinking noise is coming from.

Today for the first time I hit an area with lots of small pebbles..WHOA! What a racket even with all that dynamatt..but it was only for a few seconds so no big deal...

You should heard it without the dynamat!!!!

I've heard less noise when riding a Polaris Razor. It was like having a large piece of tin 6 inches from your ear getting plinked by a rapid fire high velocity BB gun. I truly don't understand the tire noise debate, because that sh*t is mild compared to the pebbles. Way mild.

Trouble is the tire noise is constant..but the pebbles are just an occasional thing..

Engine sound, transmission scream, exhaust note, tire/road noise = Mechanical Music

Plinking rocks, tinking pebbles, spraying water = Obtrusive Noise

Although if you ask RUSH, it's all good....

Red Barchetta
Songwriters: Lee, Geddy; Lifeson, Alex; Peart, Neil;

My uncle has a country place that no one knows about
He says it used to be a farm before the Motor Law
And on Sundays, I elude the eyes, hop the turbine freight
To far outside the wire, where my white-haired uncle waits

Jump to the ground as the turbo slows to cross the borderline
Then run like the wind as excitement shivers up and down my spine
But down in his barn, my uncle preserved for me an old machine
For fifty odd years, to keep it as new has been his dearest dream

I strip away the old debris that hides a shining car
A brilliant red Barchetta from a better vanished time
Ooh, fired up the willing engine, responding with a roar
Tires spitting gravel, I commit my weekly crime

Wind in my hair
Shifting and drifting
Mechanical music
Adrenaline surge

Well-weathered leather, hot metal and oil
The scented country air
Sunlight on chrome, the blur of the landscape
Every nerve aware

Suddenly ahead of me across the mountainside
A gleaming alloy air car shoots towards me, two lanes wide
I spin around with shrieking tires to run the deadly race
It goes screaming through the valley as another joins the chase

Drive like the wind, straining the limits of machine and man
Laughing out loud with fear and hope, I've got a desperate plan
At the one lane bridge, I leave the giants stranded at the riverside
Race back to the farm to dream with my uncle at the fireside

Between the exhaust and the tire.. it's extremely loud in my car. I drove 12 hours on a road trip and the sound actually made me sick. :-(

Pirelli Pzero tires are the noisiest rubbers I've ever had.

I know about noise with my AAM short tails

RiCharlie · 06-02-2012, 09:29 AM

Here is one for you Bonzo..lets hear you play this..

Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Looking for adventure
In whatever comes our way

Yeah, darlin'
Gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

I like smoke and lightnin'
Heavy metal thunder
Racing in the wind
And the feeling that I'm under

Yeah, darlin'
Gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

Like a true nature child
[ From: BORN TO BE WILD Lyrics - STEPPENWOLF ]
We were born
Born to be wild
We can climbed so high
I never wanna die
Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Looking for adventure
In whatever comes our way

Yeah, darlin'
Gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

Like a true nature child
We were born
Born to be wild
We can climbed so high
I never wanna die
Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Oh crap, don't get THIS started.

This could be 5 threads in itself all ending closed for sure. I mean all it would take is for me to say something like, "Country music? Are you kidding me? Modern country music is nothing but pure cheesy pop crap." And away it would go. So no, you aren't going to bait me here.

No, I would say it's an airplane, but that's just a guess. I have bolded other words that might hint to that also. You never know, Peart's lyrics can be very.....very.... what's the word I'm looking for??? Not literal, but impressionistic. Ya know.

Currently own a 2004 base auto G35 Coupe and I have a 2013 Z 6mt Sport Package on order. For those of you who have owned a G35 Coupe around my year, how much louder is the road noise on the Z?

Let's say on a scale of 1 to 10 and the G35 is a 5, what would the Z be? And is this noise just on concrete highways?

I did take a 20 minute test drive with the Z on the highway and some bumpy/beat up back roads and it seemed quieter and smoother than my G35, however this was all on asphalt.
