My car is a s14. i just got new tein tiie/tension rods and kyb agx shocks on megan springs. and a new tranny mount.what i have noticed is that when i'm going around tight turns and i gas it i get like a knocking sound under the driver side area and i can't figure out what it is what might it be?

i got that knockling too... mines is really loud... i get mines in 2 general times... when i turn hard (hits hard once), and also at like around 900 rpm when i am not on load (rattles).... is that what you get?

if it is hitting, what can i put in there to dampen it? can you do that? just needs to be high temp right?

ok cool... so like this guy asked what would be good to dampen it?

Get some nismo engine mounts or something similar. This would keep the engine/tranny from moving too much when you floor it. Also try some polyurethane exhaust hangers which will help to keep your exhuast from moving too much.
