*BUMP*

My Stagea has the same 'click' noise when loading up the drivetrain, only audible with the windows down.

Just had the RR side caliper & disc off, no obvious signs there, but the pads are still suspected.

All frame & link mounts are secure, I'll climb under the car tonight & see what I can find with a second person helping.

It might not the be same sound, but in mine I get a loud Clack or Click noise when I change gears (can only hear it in the lower changes, where significant masses are exchanged and the engine noise isn't so loud), and also when I am in reverse and play around with the clutch catch point. My mech said it's a ball-headed bolt that sits between two thick wires on the same arm thing as the throw-out bearing.

The thing that makes your problem sound familiar is that some said it happens on gear changes and/or when there is load on the drivetrain, that's exactly when mine occurs (e.g. a clumsy change will also show it up fairly obviously).

But the sound I hear is most definitely from the gearbox/clutch area, so like I said, might not be the same. My clutch is getting changed out on Tuesday, so I'll try to get a recording of the sound before then.

Suggestions for where it can be uploaded? (if anyone is interested...)

      The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change

      Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down.

      The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
