Recently upgraded a few things
-Super Pro mounts
-Sounth bend stage 3 daily
-Fluidamper crank pully
I love LOVE the feeling of the car now. The car is a ton easier to rev match, upshift, downshift and even feels a bit faster.
Downside? The transmission noises. On cold start and for the first 10 minutes of my commute it's livable... But, once the engine and transmission is fully warmed up there's a ton of mechanical noise coming from the transmission. The main area that I'm concerned about is from idle to about 2500 rpm. There is a LOT of gear rattle or gear lash noise at those engine speeds.
Now I'll say I don't expect a Lexus quiet transmission... I just wanted to know what else could be done to lesson the rattle between idle and 2500rpm. Above that it's fine.
