How much of an improvement have you noticed? Worth the effort? Thanks.

 

In all honesty the trunk did nothing for me but the cabin did make things better. I can’t say it’s a huge difference but road noise did come down a bit and doors feel much more solid.

As for the work it wasn’t bad. The trunk is a breeze to take apart and the interior is simple too. The whole job was a few hours. While I was in there I also did a seat cushion swap moving the barely used passenger seat over to the drivers side and vice versa.

 

Potenza RE71Rs!! Solo starts Feb 9th! Anyone know where I can find a good seatbelt lock? I can't find CG locks anywhere on line. Any other suggestions for autocross? Eibach Sway bar just ordered.

 

Did you add any NVH material on top of the sound mat? Did you put some of the mat material inside the doors?

You get real bang for the buck on the doors.

 

I inherited this car from my dad when he passed away two years ago. He was the original owner and drove the car 122K miles. Since getting the car I've been slowly replacing small parts here and there. Overall, he took really good care of the car, having the dealer he bought the car new from do all the scheduled maintenance. Over the weekend I replaced the tired, worn and leaking struts with Koni yellows. I figured I'd try the lower perch on the Kong's with the stock springs. Took it out for a drive and I'm happy with the ride, and using the lower perch gave it about a 3/4" drop at all four corners.

 

Removed the DEPO tails from my Pre-Facelift AP1 !

And retrofitted (cutting and wiring) Facelift Taillights + installed VOLK CE28N with Michelin PS4 !

 

Good to know!

 

Detailed under the hood a bit and changed the engine air filter and in-cabin air filter!

 

Installed remote damper adjusters

 

NVH material? Not too sure what that would be. I just laid it down as directed and placed factory carpeting back down. As for the doors, yes I did that too. Made them feel “more solid”.
