My '94 GSR has a buzzy rattle kinda deal at 3200-4000 RPM...tech told me it was the A-pipe and i should just get an aftermarket header, but I'm pretty sure its just the B pipe...

Anyone else have this problem??


TIA

 

For the rattling if it's a 94 gsr maybe the rubber hanger are getting weak.

 

yea i do.. my resenator pipe is mest up.. the foam or something on the resenator is gone so the toher pipe in it just ratling everytime i rev it up or when i just drive regular. i got an after maket exhaust.. same thing happened to my 95 eg hatch and now its happenenin to my integra.. i guest because i run the car hard..

 

mine rattles too. right at 3200rpms-3400rpms. but it sound like its the heat shield on the header. i have heard from alot of people about it so i guess it is common

 

The lower half of the stock header, the A pipe I guess, has a double-walled pipe that will rattle when it has broken down a bit inside.

The cat can make the same noise when internal damage happens as well as the heat sheild attached to it.

Another rattle possibility, is when an aftermarket short shifter rubs against the exhaust pipe.

Best way to isolate a noise, is to have it up on a lift and as you go thru the rev range, someone underneath can poke and prod until the cause of the noise is found. Good luck.

 

i had the same probelm but on a 96 LS Integra. It turned out to be the heat shield loose just a little bit. Once i snugged it back down it was silent like new.

yea, thats it thats exactly what i did today....gonna get the header replaced with a DC one i guess

 

do you have a short shifter?...it sometimes does that when it hits the glass back right below and it vibrates and sometimes makes a rattle noise...it happens to me all the time when i turn on the car...either that or yup its the header

 

i had the same problem when i ran the gsr header on the b18c1 and b20. i jsut took teh header off and put on a homemadeturbo kit

 

Mine did that as well, So I threw 4-2-1 DC headers on it..and never heard the noise since...

 

cool thanks guys
