Haha thanks man, i dont know it all about cars yet just got my beginners last week and my car on tuesday. Whats that black tar supposed to be, and how much do u think it weighs per about a foot by foot's worth?

[Bowls]

what is the black tar, just a cushion of sort for the carpet/mat or something to pin the carpet to?

Its sound deadner the factory puts in.

kinda like mar-hyde......like a rubberized under coating can be found on the under chassis of the car also. I'm glad you took my joke to humor and not an insult. Scrapping all that crap off will save you about 4-5 lbs if i remember right.

I found out that crap is to keep ur floor from rusting, i live in nova scotia canada, about a 6 month winter i don't think ill be taking that out unless somone knows of something lighter that would prevent rust?

[festivaWES]

But when you live in california.....I'll fred flinstone my car if the flooring falls out lol.

[DuritzCrows17]

It doesn't prevent it inside that is strictly for sound purposes, the stuff on the under carriage aids in rust prevention however.

Oh my bad I thought that was all the black tar that I just got done tearing out of my car, well whatever it is don't forget to take it out, it weighs more than most of the stuff you removed.

Whats this black tar your mentioning? If its in the 92 L, i want to know where it is and how i can get it out

Every car has this black tar on the floorboard you can locate it by lifting up the carpet...

P.S. Acura Integra Type R's and Dodge Neon ACR's and a few other race ready cares come from the factory without sound deadening, lol I had to put that out there.

What acura integras and other race ready cars??? I'll check the junkyards tommorrow and prove you wrong..

I wouldn't be so sure about proving him wrong. My buddy's '90 integra GS (which is far from even being race ready) didn't have any black tar. We ripped out the carpet to replace it and we were very suprised to find a little glue but other than that it was just painted sheet metal under there. We put in some of that 3/8" carpet pad from home depot under the carpet, and its nice and cushy now and the sound level inside is much much lower

[festivaWES]

no way....i got to go to the junkyard myself and check this out. BTW i got a new engine I'll be posting up some pictures tonight.

[Silv3rBull3t]

What engine?? Not happy w/the B6 SOHC?? BP perhaps?? For my needs a B6 SOHC spins the tires more than enough w/an open diff on an AutoX.. -Kyle

chill out there chief, I forgot to put in acura integra TYPE R's, no need to get butt hurt and go junkyard hunting to prove me wrong, you should be fine, everything is gonna be alright, sometimes people forget to add certain things and its not all that serious.

^^No need to be condescending to people.. You could have just said "Sorry, forgot to add Type R to my post" Instead of trying for a confrontation.. If you need to reply to my post, pm me don't start crap outside of the arena.
