Sound proofing, any car audio store would have the equipment you would need
sweet i will look into it... any other ideas?
ear plugs
you are driving a car without the standard motor and it is modified, rigid mounts, aftermarket exahust etc...
You are never going to get the thing quiet... you could dynamat the entire car, ie. floor, firewall, doors etc... at the end of the day, realise you dont have a comfortable cruiser... sell it and buy a Euro
sorry to be blunt
anything i could do to the exhaust??
How about listing what you have done to the car so we can get a broad idea on what to help you on. =]
its a vti-r 1998.. has k24 in it i/h/e kpro
i want to make it quiter it's starting to give me a headache lol but i dont want too loose power?
varex muffler?
1. Try using a softer compound insert in your conversion engine mounts.
2. Teaspoon of cement.
You dont have to lose power but you can gain weight by sound proofing the whole car
but i'd say, get used to it, or buy an extra car for daily driving
also.. what exhuast are you running?

Let us know what you decide.
haha lol @ harden the F**k up. i will try but i drive it a fair bit n it is ridiculously loud.. its a custom catback 2.5" Think i will just get a daily or something a little eg or ek keep it as a weekend warrior!
I agree with Zilli and other members as well. That is not a user freindly car, its supposed to be an assualt on the sences. Most people would love a K swapped car, wether it be a civic or integra.
I would just try and get used to it really. Or if you really cant stand it then buy a comfy cruiser with a bit of poke, like a DC5R or something like that - its nice and comfortable without being to brash.
