I am curious your thoughts on the sounds in my video, do those sound anything like your car? I know you drive yours a lot.
I will be ordering a slave cylinder, and some redline today to start there.
Yeah, dude I have no idea what that sound is… it sounds a bit like a friction slap. Like an rpm thud, but I certainly wouldn’t go to the mat for that. I do get the odd vibration from time to time. Typically it’s higher pitched and metallic, which lets me know something needs tightening. Let us know what happens after you swap that slave out.

He loosened the T-mount, the mount you suggested inspecting. I believe it started appearing on 240s from 82, and I’m surprised it had any effect whatsoever for you. It’s a pretty flimsy piece of rubber!
