Guest Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I get that easily now around freezing temp. Engine all stock and JDM SpecB stock suspension (hardly any drop). It's actually annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleBlueGT Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Bit if the driveline flex is at the other end, why do the engine mountshelp? So if the engine mounts are used in conjunction with the STi tranny mount for the 5MT and the Rallispec for the %eat, it should almost take it away but for what I've read, that is not the case. Also, why when colder does it sound more if rubber becomes softer with heat, not the way arround. More power generated? At least you didn't notice any NVH with the engine mounts but I wonder if I'll be that lucky! I think the issue is a harmonic issue, the culprit being the whole drive-line. That being said, I have the STI tranny mount, (have always had it, so I don't know the difference it made). I can definitely still make the noise, but there is no question it is much much better now. I actually do notice increased NVH, it is only at idle, and only when the car is warmed up and operating at 750 rpm idle. Anything else, and it is transparent.

Rallitek.com Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I can have my R&D dept look at making some bushing inserts like our 5EAT mount. Would that help?

Leonardo Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 That would be great!! Something we can unbolt the nut, insert it and replace nut. Thanks sean!!! Noise is beginning to annoy the heck out of me when I let of every time I leave the stop signs to/from my house! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBlueGT Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I can have my R&D dept look at making some bushing inserts like our 5EAT mount. Would that help? An insert that goes right into the hollow portion of the OEM pieces would be ideal, also be something many DIYers could do, thus making it profitable. DO IIIIIT! Oh, and send the first one to me for testing. Full tune of 68HTA, KSTech 73 MAF, Racer X FMIC and ID1000s................by the DataLog Mafia!!!

sexylegacy Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I have the same problem too. Only in first. And it started happening after I went Stage 2 and lowered the car and it started getting cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewScooby Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 After 3 months with the filled bushings the results are pretty good. I had no growl down to 30 degrees or so. But after some consistant 20 degree days of leaving my car outside at work the growl has returned somewhat. Maybe 25% back, nowhere near as loud as it used to be. Sean, How about a poly bushing kit for the entire rear suspension? I'd buy it. I'm close to buying a block of Delrin and have a local machine shop replace every bushing I can unbolt and take to them. lateral links, lower diff crossmember, and trailing arms.

For those two you have to unbolt almost everything to take out the crossmember piece that's why the insert is a better idea for those ones!

Guest Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 ^ So that would indicate that the problem gets worse over time. Do the bushings get worn or something is actually disintegrating in the diff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can do it in 60s and 70s too. Imagine how bad it is in the -30s! Too bad, you lose......... Full tune of 68HTA, KSTech 73 MAF, Racer X FMIC and ID1000s................by the DataLog Mafia!!!

Do the bushings get worn or something is actually disintegrating in the diff? It is not just those bushings at fault. It is the whole drive train looseness, which gets worse over time. Those two bushings happen to be the most offending culprit. Nothing is disintegrating. Full tune of 68HTA, KSTech 73 MAF, Racer X FMIC and ID1000s................by the DataLog Mafia!!!

Guest Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 SeeeeYa claims it caused his diff to go bye-bye. I was wondering if it was gradual damage or the diff gave up one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatbastard Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Mine does this on ocassion but I think it is due to load...at least for me. If I accelerate fairly hard with just me and the wife no noise, but if I do the same with two more people in the car I get the growling noise.
