Have you checked the oil level ??? Dipstick at the side of the Top Mount, If ok try changing the oil for a good quality semi synthetic 75 /90 grade, may improve things but possibly sounds bearing related

Had something similar on my MY99. Turned out to be near where the downpipe and centre section meet it was knocking against a bracket.

When up on the ramps and revved to about 2800 - 3000rpm you could stop it by sticking a screwdriver in between the pipe and the bracket and moving it slightly.

Sorted by bending the bracket slightly to the side.

Hope its something that simple
