What else would cause this vibration?

[imprezaworks]

Im sitting in work thinking back to my trackday the other week about the problem i had with the car vibrating when going hard round right hand bends. Had the passanger driveshaft fitted yesterday along with making sure the ride height was spot on, and the cars great. Obviously to test the car properly it will have to be on a track. Just wondered what else would cause the knocking noise. It is lowered but not massively, anyone else have the same problem?

No mate, only happened on tight right turns. Brakes were spot on

When I lowered my 182, I had the same problem when going round sharp left handers and I changed the drivers side driveshaft and it was hanging, solved the problem after.

Give that one a go mate. Just remove it you will be able to tell if its worn.

Replaced the passanger drive shaft as there was definate play in it. Replacement one is on, i was just curious of what else it could have been. It was going be last chance saloon if it didnt solve the issue, so far so good though. Just didnt want to get to another track day and have the same problem. Oh and the old one didnt look that bad but obviousy we didnt strip it down. Car does feel loads better though

track rod ends, ball joints, front ARB, top mounts, steering rack...

Is it lowered a lot? Could be the driveshaft hitting the chassis then.

Everything has been chacked for play, and that was the only thing that did. No not lowered alot at all, very mild by some standards. I think it has been rubbing the plastic cover that sits above it though. But even when we raised it a fair bit it still did it, although it was better by 99%.

Yes, I said that a replaced the DRIVERS side shaft which is the opposite to yours. May be worth a shot.
