Ok I know this is probably not the right section (hell not even an SR20) but I figure there's more people on this forum that have taken apart their car far enough to help... this is what I posted over at NF.com:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thats what I'm hearing... It happend when I first did the swap to the manual.... about every 4-7 seconds I'd hear a mild to light sound (clunk) like someone just hit the transmission with a hammer... Today it got worse, louder and about ever 2-3 seconds.
It only happens when I'm accelerating under load (meaning I can't get the sound to occur if i just push the car), if I depress the clutch it dissappears or if I lift off the throttle it dissapears.
I can feel the clunk through the clutch pedal and the shifter the most.
My guess right now... I was given the wrong axles. It looks about the same as my auto tranny axles but I'm not sure if that would cause the sound.... Second guess, wheels are out of alignment and causing the axles to pull out slightly from the differential housing... (although that seems farfetched)..
Can anyone relate or help??? Thanks!
