It helps. It can help a lot depending on what type of sound deadening mat you use. Dynamat is one of the more expensive choices. The tar based types stink, so you need to pick wisely.

kenchan

you mean pick wisely...

I did from the shock towers back with GTMat and it did a good job of quieting things down.

yah, i used dynamat. it made a noticeable difference, but my muffler is pretty loud so it's not like a lux car by any means.

nvdave04

Lmao give me a break im from New Orleans where the public education system sucks lmao

Yes Dynamat lol

nvdave04

Thank you guys ! Making an appointment next week to get windows tinted and while there I'll have the Dynamat installed as well.. The road noise is just crazy loud and bothering the **** out of me lol.. And is it me or did the change the exhaust from the 350z to 370z? I always wanted a z/g35 bc of the factory exhaust sound and seems my 370z does not have the same tone ?

The rear of the car has almost zero insulation from road noise. Take off the panels and line it there as well.


About the exhaust, do you want it louder? If so, go aftermarket, fi,ark ect


Road noise doesn't bother me..im used to it.. expected it in a tiny 2 seat sports car for mid 20s. Nothing that a aftermarket exhaust and decent audio setup cant fix too.

Until I got headers, HFCs, and a CBE, I thought the 370Z was too quite exhaust-wise. What got me was the road noise and what drove me nuts was sand etc pinging off the rear wheel well. I covered those suckers and it made a world of difference.

You can go nuts and do every square inch, but I think it is a waste of money (diminishing returns). Get the large sections of sheet metal in the doors, trunk, wheel wells, and maybe the floorboard and that will make all the difference in the world.

Or go nuts.

I will be saving this thread for next week to share you guys advice and see what they recommend and make the decision..

As far as exhaust I deff do not want loud.. I personally love the old sound of the 350z/ and g35 lol I dunno maybe I'm just crazy but it just does not seem as loud as the old ones use to sound.. Headers hmmm maybe the cheaper way to go to get better sound and still keep it somewhat quite -

I just did a stereo upgrade, I did the area behind the seats in dynamat extreme, and also did 1/4" dynaliner. Where as before I had to turn my volume up to around 20 for a comfortable sound level that has now dropped to around 14-15 after doing the dynamat.

kenchan

GL with the install.

yah, the 370Z's muffler is too quiet. should swap it out.

one of the many reasons why i still have my G35C with stock exhaust. lots of mods on my car, but the exhaust is one thing nissan got it perfect on the G.
