last few days ive noticed a creaking sound (sound like walking on wooden floor boards) when I accelerate from a stop, also i can recreate the sound when i have the handbrake on and i try to accelerate.

The sound seems to be comming from the passenger rear wheel section of the car. I mate said it is most likely the bushes, although he hasn't seen the car.

I hear a smilar sound when i drive over a bump, but i'm not sure if its my loose front mount that is making that noise....

any ideas would be a great help.

cheers

yup only recnetly,,,,,,

it happens to be comming from the same side of the car where that same wheel support was bent when i hit the gutter (long story)..... anyway I was told everything was alright with it 6 motnhs ago when i got it repaired, i put an s15 wheel support in because they are better reinforced.....

in the process the exhaust was squashed alittlebit so i guess it could be something to do with that aswell..... but as i said 6months ago....

      But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...

      Or a useable metric unit?

      I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.

      It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.

      Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
