December 25, 201510 yr Carpet padding from your local home improvement store. Its cheap, light, and easy to install with plain spray glue. Granted dynamat works better, but its fairly weighty stuff. Justys arent known for power, and id think liberal use of it would hurt performance, and mpg's significantly.
December 25, 201510 yr Yea, Dynomat is very heavy. I used it one time and at the time, I knew I installed a weight penalty. A 73 c.i. 73 horsepower ecvt Justy is fun to drive. It will do donuts until you want to quit. lol Awesome on snow.
December 25, 201510 yr Author Are you saying its too much for the anger or the Justy's 73 HP. I would love to do donuts with the Justy, but road salt and Justys dont mix.
December 26, 201510 yr You made me thinik about it. I'd put some in the doors and some in the rear quarters. What I've done is remove the acoustical covering from the hood. Usually fiber something. You would still hear the angry growl from the Justy. And the whine from the ECVT.
December 26, 201510 yr Author Its a quiet car except fr accelerating. i was thinking floor in front at firewall, doors, and trunk area. I only here the whine when stopped, and thats more brushes i think then belt.
December 26, 201510 yr Go to Lowe's and get a product called "Peel and Seal". You can do the whole car for less than $20. The Muscle Car community uses this product, and it usually takes 2 or so rolls to finish a pretty good sized car. However, a Justy is a tiny car. Put the Peel and Seal down in strips on flat panels, and on the floor you can top it off with foam backed "Frost King Duct Insulation". I did this in my old American car, and it works really nice. It's WAY cheaper and just as effective as Dynamat. Since your car is newer and the factory material is probably in good shape, using it in conjunction with Peel and Seal should work nice.

December 26, 201510 yr The 4wd ECVT Justy makes some peculial soujds. Dsport mode changes everything. S[ray rubber works pretty good for acoustics.
December 26, 201510 yr Here's the dog that rides in it. Might have been him whining... Edited December 26, 201510 yr by Quidam

I find that Dsport makes it much more driveable in the snow. Drive I just sit and spin tires. Not that spinning tires is bad... Edited December 26, 201510 yr by nipper

I shall do that.
January 2, 201610 yr Hey Nipper, I bought 2 16oz rubber spray, It's Permatex. Going to spray my wheelwells. Ran across this stuff called Boom Mat spray on. Just saying. I bought a new old stock brush set for my Justy. Ha one thing I lacked. My car looks like yours. But 4WD. I'm converting the NOS 2wd tranny to 4wd.
January 2, 201610 yr Author With winter finally getting here, this project will be put off till march and hopefully i feel better. I hope i dont have to sell it.
