Ok GC8 people. I'm tired of trying to fix this freaking noise.
I'll tell you what it is: STi tranny and motor mounts.
If you have STi tranny and motor mounts on your car, please post in this thread with your comments regarding the freaking awful loud decel noise coming out of the tranny.
Since I have installed the STi mounts, STi short shifter, and Kart Boy wshifter bushing, I have this gut wrenching grinding noise that you can hear as you decelerate in any gear. I know that the noise is from the rock hard bushings and such, but damn, there must be a way to make this thing quiet.
Maybe I can wrap the tranny in "DynoMat" or something. Everytime someone rides in my car they say, "Hey dude, what's up with your tranny?"
Anyone have any ideas? I tried to insulate the front and rear tranny crossmembers with rubber washers, and it did make it less noticable, but it was still there.
I'm actually thinking of putting that weak tranny mount back in, just to shut it up. If you are accelerating, it's perfectly quiet, but take your foot off the gas and the hounds of hell start to come through the floor.
Ideas??
