Just picked up my RB5 Prodrive on saturday - awesome!! The only thing I have noticed is that when acclerating hard, when I lift of the accelerator to change up I can hear a slight vibrating/rattling sound. This seems to be coming from behind the accelerator. Definately in the driver side footwell. Happens most of the time.
Any one heard of this before???
Cheers

Check the aircon pipes between the intercooler firewall. on my scoob this pipe rattled against the firewall on both accel and deceleration.
If it's not that, it's the brake lines doing the same thing.

Sounds like the four brake/clutch pipes that run along the bulkhead above the brake master cylinder vibrating. This is a well known problem (my MY00 does it) and is cured by stuffing a bit of dense foam down the back of them!
