sloshing gas tank noise from inside

could be just me, but the sloshing sound of the gas inside the tank when I go over bumps or dips is extremely annoying. I had a 2k1 auto and it never had this problem before. It is extremely loud without the music on while driving. This never happened before I lowered my car also. The sloshing noise even comes when I ride the clutch a little to smooth out the car from a stop.

also, the kyb agx + sprint spring combo I have clunks and makes noises sometimes, especially when the body of the car is flexed (coming into a driveway, etc). And yes I have 4th gen sprint springs with 5th gen modified agx's.

I know that when I removed my rear seats to go to the track I could clearly hear all the gas back there sloshing around driving to and from the track. With the seats back on it is less noticable although sometimes, with no music on I can hear it slightly. I'm a 2k3.

I hear it too, especially over speed bumps.

One of these days, I plan to get off my lazy **** and Xtreme dynamat everything back there and see if it helps.

either that or maybe i'm being too picky. The occasional clunking from the suspension, the excessive interior noise, and the leather on the passenger seat rubbing together creating this squeeking sound.
