Hey guys Im new here just bought my first RX-7 and I love it. Im more of a Toyota and Honda guy but damn I fell in love with rotary power. I might need some help here and there cuz like I said Im new to rotary....dont worry I know how it works and all just need some advice on some aftermarket parts and well yeah I have a quick question....When I shift gears I hear a thump in the rear. What is that? A friend told me it was a rear torque mount but when I search for that it is nowhere to be found is it called something else or is it a different problem. I only hear it when I shift hard if I take it easy I dont hear it. Hope to hear from ya soon....by the way love this site!

 

look at the trans mounts, and diff mount, if the are worn out, replace them, also make shure its not your exhaust, or ne thing else thats loose knocking around the rear of the car.

no use doing something that dosent need 2 be done.

 

problem would be the rear diff mount... kinda like a kick in the *** feeling?? haha my friend has that problem and its funny... but yeah at least thats what i think... people will correct me immediately if im wrong as always

 

Thanks guys now I have another question....Do all FCs have this carbon smell? When I drive damn I seem to always get a headache from it. Is it my exhaust downpipe what? Please help.
