From what I gathered it looks like its a bad tranny...

If so it would be a great time to do a 6 speed conversion!

Nice job on the detail from what I can tell Jared. Buffing and polishing mine was the best thing I ever did. OB looks so sick when it's done right. I've seen too many G's/other rides in the area with swirls and it makes me cringe....

I think i got a whole in my exhaust. 2 weeks ago i scraped up the flex joint area pretty bad. But i didn't notice a change in sound or anything. But today when i was driving the car the exhaust sounded really bad and obnoxious. Or maybe it's a loose bolt...
I'm going to jack up the car tomorrow and take a look.

on a more positive note, today I pulled my car from the back and parked it in the front, for a few hours.

I notice it when it's warm and cold. I hope this is not what it's suppose to sound like cause it sounds terrible. I dunno, I'm going to jack it up the afternoon.
