okay.. so i own a dc2 VTI-r.. anyways, this week i changed my radiator, put in an exedy clutch and changed driveshafts.. car feels weird now but thats due to the clutch

anyways my issue is, when im at full throttle, the sound my car makes right before Vtec kicks in at 4500 is a really lower, grumbling and vibrating sound.. does anyone know what this is? upon recieving my car this morning.. i drove it and it sounded like something "fell" out of the engine bay and rolled down the road. something metal? could it be an engine mount or the new driveshaft?? or something!> I DONTKNOW :( !!!

tbh it kidna sounds like a wrx.. if that helps? and there is a bigger than usual oil leak under my extractors..

Leak = possible main oil seal on tranny..

Mayb just dripped out from the intermediate input shaft as u took it off

Try clean it up and see if it leaks after a week.

Noise like a scooby = ignition spark leads / sparkies loose?

Or even a loose flywheel bolts, due to wrong torque settings?
