Could be the drop links mate, mine are knocking, well the nearside rear is for defo

 

never frosty, your such a calm and collective driver as well ....

 

Or top mount....

 

it came too £250 + vat for the centre gauge pod and fitting .

also had the car remapped and it came out at 262 bhp, i cant believe the difference in the drive its so much more responsive! will try and scan the print out so i can put it up

 

sounds like it could be allsorts......my works van recently had a rear shocker fitted and the sti is giving out the exact same noise, hopefully its not the links or the mounts and Ive guessed it right....ill let sc have a look and if its the shocks ill get their own custom ones that remedy the prob.

 

Top mounts need a look at while in bits tho'.

IMHO

Cheers mate, im going to get them to give it a good once over and see whats what, was thinking about a re-map whilsts its there but I think ill stick with it how it is and try a few handling mods like Corradoboy suggested.

ps; I put my new pics of the sti in "view my scooby"

Just tried and I seem to get connected to Orange Voicemail asking me to set up a PIN to access my own messages

All I can guess is he has a new number Alan C may have it

 

no worries mate, I appreciate you doing what you said you were going to, tbh

While your around.....

Im having some eibach springs fitted next week aswell as some new shocks (if it is indeed the knocking im getting) I just wondered what else would be worth considering?........anti lift kit? drop links?

 

Definitely (rear) drop links. The ALK I have doubts about. The guy who set up my car dialled in massive amounts of camber without the need for it, and it cornered like you wouldn't believe (we're talking 3 figure entry speeds). The ALK does adjust the mounting position of the rack, affecting the turning input under load, but I have to question whether it is needed, although having driven Al's car it may well be (but I didn't try any serious cornering as he wouldn't let me anywhere near it again if I did ). You are getting a Whiteline rear ARB aren't you ? If not, add it to the list, and be honest with yourself. If you brake a lot and have a twitchy, nervous driving style, then go 22mm and consider the middle setting, but stiffest is best If you're fluid and smooth, 24mm.

 

Meaning what good lady

 

Nope.. sorry mate... I don't have it from the old membership lists...

 

Whiteline adjustable rear ARB is the best value mod I've made to mine !
On stiffest it's a bit too tail happy on track, but I was trying to re-learn what the car can do after doing F&R ARB's plus ALK and drop-links....
I don't drive so aggressively on the road so a track session is superb fun, sadly took crap tyres...
