i was giving it a littel tough love on the way home from seeing borat last night
and when i got home i had an add rattle grind going on , so i got up this morning to figure it out and took it to a mate who took it to his mates and worked out its the big end bearing in the 3 cylender
drives ok but the sound is unmissable.

i have a full exhaust , vf34 turbo , 4.444 box and diff , STi clutch and fly wheel. and standard computer , i have kinda replaces stuff as it fucks up.
