SpecBamf41 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Around 115k now and the car has some rattles and clunks i would love to take care of before i drive to my next command. So far i have this list of items to fix or replace -Front ball joints -Lower my exhaust, it seems my fms catback makes contact on the sway bar and the heat sheild under the gas tank. Replace or rebuild my isc coilovers -Fix the dash rattle -Engine and trans mount Any other bushings? I tried wrapping the exhaust with a sock on the point of contact, which helped, but there is still another noise in the rear end. Does anyone else have a problem they have found and corrected that may apply to my noise problem? Also have a nasty jolt in the car when letting off the gas, almost like the trans or engine is moving around a bit when load is applied and unapplied. Engine and trans mounts right? Or is that just extra play in the mesh of the gears. BNR18g on 93oct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTris Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Are your motor and trans mounts stock? If so, the combination of age and the power you're running, one would expect a bit of on/off throttle 'shift'. Suggest nabbing a set of Group N bits, should tighten that up immensely.

ras06LGT Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Group N mounts did wonders for my car. I got used the little bit of added noise in a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpecBamf41 Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 is this the bushing for the front control arms? http://www.infamousperformance.net/servlet/the-288/AVO-Suspension-Front-Lower/Detail is it the rear or front bushing that is bad.

meier motor sports Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 that looks to be the front bushing of the front control arm. typically it the rear bushing of the front arm that goes bad first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecBamf41 Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 So these caster adjust ones. Will that move the placement of my wheel farther back in the wheel well? Cause that would help alot with my tire rubbing problem. BNR18g on 93oct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
