they mentioned something about jute. meron bang ganong product dito sa atin?

[cliffjumper]

d ba mitsubishi cars have out of factory sound insulation? tama ba?

am not sure pre.. mazda kasi ang ineexperiment ko eh..

The Goodyears are notorious for being noisy. A friend of mine, when he got his Lynx, had them immediately replaced with Dunlop LM702s, and the noise was significantly reduced. Around P1,400 lang ang nagastos nya after trade-in. Ganda pa kapit.

cliffjumper,

where did you buy the acoustifoam? Sila din ba ang naginstall? How long did it take to install?

[cliffjumper]

dragonheart,

binili ko yung acoustifoam sa true value town center. 1.8 x 1 m, around P600. Sympre ako na rin ang nag-install.. inabot ako limang oras. medyo mabusisi, kasi i had to remove the seats and the carpet. tapos linis muna bago kabit. post sana ako ng pics kaya lang kakahiya, amateur na amateur ang itsura. pero ok na rin. susunod kong lalagyan yung trunk. parang kasing mas dominant na yung ingay na nanggagaling dun eh (feeling ko lang ha).. :roll:

[boybitz]

cliffjumper,
pano mo kinabit? di yun dumidikit like flashband d ba? dinikit mo pa ba or parang nakalatag lang like carpet?

[cliffjumper]

boybitz,

may kasama syang dalawang latang pandikit (rugby lang). di yata sya magiging effective kapag di mo dinikit kasi walang sasalo ng vibration kapag hindi sya nakakapit dba. ang pangit lang ay medyo makapal yung acoustifoam, kaya kapag binalik mo na yung carpet, may tendency sya na mawala sa alignment, (para bang loose skin).. isipin mo tuloy kung babawasan mo pa yung carpet. :roll:

clif, how did the accoustifoam affect your ride's noise?? significant ba yung sound proofing??

[cliffjumper]

Juno,

Yes, i can say quite significant.. ramdam ko talaga mas smooth feeling ng ride.. although im not sure how much ang nacontribute ng acoustifoam. Kasi i also applied a flashband like product sa doors.. parang thin foam sya na dinidikit na lang din na parang flashband (mas magaan pa). gumanda nga yung tunog ng speakers ko eh, mas naging bassy.. experiment lang (mukang okay naman).. halo halo na nga ginamit ko eh..
acoustifoam sa floor, flashband sa likod, then yung thin foam sa doors..
i plan to apply acoustifoam na rin sa trunk para masagad na..

[squatt3r]

san nakakabili ng acoustifoam? yung malapit lang dito sa las pinas / munti area

[juno]

acoustifoam are usually available in stores like HANDYMAN (robinsons) and TrueVAlue Shops. They are distributed by HAN GANG.

[juno]

cliff, hehehehe i knew it would put a smile in your face. i also did put lots of acoustifoam in my trunk flooring and it also made a good insulation as well. i also plan to put some more inside the wheel wells kaya lang la pa ko time. i also put a 5mm layer of acoustifoam in between the roof and the ceiling??? (di naman sidings un di ba) and it significantly lessened the heat i feel especially when driving in the mid afternoons. dati kasi pag nag park ka sa tanghali, kahit bukas na aircon eh ramdam pa din yung heat from the roof. ngayon wala na. heheheh

guys

i using toyo prxes t1s tires....
pag nasa highway ako (macapagal road) tapos bukas bintana rinig na rining ko ung ingay ng tires....

maingay ba tlga ung toyo tires?
bago pa kasi so baka hindi muna ako magpalit....tska ung isang tires e napa vulcanize ko na dahil na tusukan ng pako tapos napadaan sa lubak na natakpan ng tubig...bad trip tlga....sayyang nga eh...

[juno]

meleagant8, yes maingay nga din yung mga toyo tires. yun sakin dati pag dumaan ako sa SSHW at bukas bintana, dinig na dinig ko yung WUNGWUNGWUNGWUNG na tunog sa kalye.

[meleagant8]

yep...nagets nyo!

so malamang, the solution would be changing of tires?

kung un lang...malamang nito....hintay pa ko ng few years....ilan po ba life span ng toyo proxes t1s?

[juno]

depende yan kung gaano ka kadalas magbyahe at pano ka magdrive ng oto mo. pag hataw -brake, hataw-brake ka.... sandali lang yan. 1 year tops kalbo na yan hehehehe.:wink:

[meleagant8]

naku di naman po ako ganun magdrive....hehehe....most probably..ano po ung range ng life span ng tires?

[cliffjumper]

happy new year pipol!!

Just finished installing acoustifoam on my cars trunk.. tama ka sir juno, laki ng nabawas sa road noise coming from the back. meron palang acoustifoam na may adhesive na, yung wala ng kasamang dalawang latang rugby (mas mahal nga lang ng 100). pero less hassle tsaka mas malinis ang trabaho.. again, problem ko na lang ngayon ay mas nagiging noticable na yung little katoks coming from the dashboard dahil tahimik na nga yung ride (siguro mga maluwag na connections lang)..

meleagant8, depende siguro kung how often you use your car and how you drive it, on my experience kasi, mga 3 years ang tinagal ng tires ko dati.

[meleagant8]

bad trip nga....putcha, ang dalas ko madisgrasya sa mga pako, turnilyo etc....

ngayon lang, merong mahabang pako na punasok sa gulong ko...lumabas sa sidewall...sana di tinamaan sa loob....

uy cliffjumper, naka sounds set up ka na ba?dapat ba naka sounds set up bago maglagay ng mga acoustiofoam?

[theveed]

ubod ng ingay ang NCT3... as in sobra... para kang naka tube na gulong na malaki... bad trip...

change your tires... also, while waiting for your current set to wear out... always check the tire pressure... laking ingay kung mali pressure mo.

don't know why local goodyears suck so much...
