Hey everyone i've had my 4th gen for about 2 years now and just decided to join the forum lol, i've been focusing more on my 7th gen but plan on fixing my ST. So hello to all :razz
Welcome Where in mass are you located ? I just moved to San Diego from Nashua NH and my wife is from Tyngsboro MA
once again everyone thanks for the warm welcomes i posted up some pics on this thread yesterday but idk why they arnt showing up im from Boston
Yeah it's real clean man. Welcome. The car's lookin better than some 5 year old cars I see around. Wish my paint was that shiny lol. How is she running?
she's running ok, her shocks are blown and the engine rattles badly in Reverse, i get a squealing noise when i steer sometimes but like everyone said, its a 20+ year old car.
go grab b&g's for 150, gr-2's for less than 200 all around and have a sweet looking semi-stance. 5 hours tops of work with a scissor jack/breaker bar rofl. engine rattles badly only in one direction means only one of the motor mounts are shot, either front or back. take off the right front wheel and see if you can use a screw driver's leverage to tighten the PS pump belt. i moved my pump probably 5mm to tighten the belt and it made a big difference in squealing otherwise, damn that's a nice body :drool5 keep it up!
I'm selling my B&Gs still mounted on less than 2 year old struts and I'll throw in fresh unused pair of new front strut mounts for $200
now that i think about it, the mounts are most likely shot like you said, are there transmission mounts i should be aware of?
3 out of the 4 engine mounts are actually bolted on the transmission, the only one that's on the engine is on the timing belt area. two of them sit on the crossmember running north/south one more sits under the AFM area, near battery i see you're from boston...i hope you're not a hockey fan (look at my location <<<) LOL
thanks for the info entrax, im gonna replace them all when i get a chance cuz that vibration is such a burden, and i don;t really watch hockey all that often lmao. GO SOX!
don't bother replacing the side ones, just the front and back. the poly's are good and will never need replacing, but it does have some more constant vibration than the OE mounts
