i think mine is broken. it must have stopped working because i have alot of noise and vibration in my car.

can someone tell me how to fix my noise dampening block?

Nismo sells an upgraded unit or you can just fill in the gaps between it and the firewall with window weld.

I couldnt imaging how a solid peice of steel would dampen a firewall, rubber usually acts like a dampner, and even the dampner on the automatic tranny does jack shit. Theres no leverage on these pieces.

Yeah, I dunno how a solid piece of steel can make anything wet...
