Ok Im planning on making my car a little nicer and I was wondering what some of you have done to make the ride smoother, im thinking about dynamatting the floorpan to get rid of road noise and suspension noise and a few things to stiffen up the car so it feels even more solid than with the subframes on, but what about the driveshaft, anyone noticed the car to vibrate a little less when they put in a lighter driveshaft like an aluminum ls1? Anything else I can do to make it a nicer ride?

 

"Sell it and buy an LS1"

... would be the typical reply to a post like this.

Driveshaft won't really make a difference. You'd be amazed at what a difference dynamat will make. However, just a word of advice... DON'T use dynamat. It's like 3 times the amount that you'd pay for a similar, yet better product; such as breadboard.

 

I second that, just one layer of brown bread in my 94 has cut down road noise drastically.

 

Here's an idea.
I've never done it, nor heard of it done, but a layer on the inside part of the firewall seems like it would reduce engine noise tons!

 

check out this guy's install...he's on the board as 97FormulaWS-6

Thats just BA man pure decadence

 

Replacing the shocks can make the car feel more solid and surefooted (not necessarily harsher). If you are getting a lot of engine vibration try checking your motor mounts.

 

Shocks have been replaced and I may upgrade in the future, maybe an adjustable type, at idle the car shakes some, that normal or should it not shake at all. what about a tubular front k member would that make it feel more solid or would it feel more harsh not sure but it seems appealing.
