weird noises after motor swap
 

ok so i just got done with my motor swap and now im hearing these three fucked up noises....
one of the noises happens when i first take off between 1-3000 RPM... its like a swish-swish-swish-swish-swish-swish noise.. is it because i dont have the flywheel inspection plate on? or what.....

the second noise comes at take off too, its a clunk... not a loud clunk but louder than a click.... its just RIGHT when i take off i looked at my tie rod bushings ( i think thats what its called...((its the joint that connects the whole wheel assembly to the steering rod thing))) anyways, thats like bleeding some red lube... is that the problem? or what is it...

the third one sounds like its coming from my driver side shock/spring... im running KYB adjustable shocks with sprint springs... whenever i hit a bump or go around a sharp right turn... its got that swish noise again... i dont think i heard it before i did the swap but now im hearing it.. is it the strut assembly? or something else?

my car doesnt have any wheel hop if that helps.. and i just got new axles... im running 17's so i dont know if its just putting stress on the tranny or what

thanks....

what axles are you using. sounds like a cv shaft clicking to me or at least that is the problem I have run into on mine brand new set of "life time guarenty" auto craps lol they broke in less then 1k on the car if you got remans like I did being the cheap mofo I am I would chek them out again. just my 2 censt at least

Ya sound liek axle problems. I have remanufacture axles on my B18C EK and one started clicking and then broke after a few months. I got a replacement under warranty and that one started clicking right after I put it on and it vibrated like crazy when accelerarting. Got another one and it felt like new. It ran so smooth.

In my experience unless you get a BRAND NEW axle, you might get one that that has a little more wear than acceptable and it will suck.
