Aluminum driveshaft
dynamat the rest of the cabin

Future plans:

My car is a daily driver that may see the track 2-3 times a year.
Got under the car to install the rear shift rod bushing today. Had to drop the driveshaft! Shifting is a lot smoother now. I think a lot of what people call notchiness could be cured with this mod. Took about 45 minutes to lift the car, get my bearings and get to it. I installed the perrin part and am very pleased. Definitely had to use some elbow grease to get it seated, glad the instructions gave me a heads up that it's a tight fit.
