Wanted: Someone in or near rochdale

[ewizzy]

Someone needed that REALLY knows their stuff on Supras.

 

I have a vibration that becomes apparent at around 60 MPH but doesnt dissapear

 

Its not wheels balancing, as it happened with old standard wheels and tyres and happens exactly the same with new 18" wheels an tyres

 

As I get to about 60mph the vibration starts to become obvious, and as I get faster, the vibration gets higher frequency, Its still there If I take it out of gear and freewheel, although, when in gear, I can feel it through the gear stick. Its not transmitting through the steering wheel, I can feel it more in me arse

 

I recently had the clutch replaced, and dont really rememberfeeling the vibration before I had the clutch done....Could the propshaft not be fitted correctly, or its it balanced, and when it comes off does it need to go back exactly the same place?

 

Like I said in the beginning of the post, would really appreciate someone who really knows supras to have a quick drive in it (with me in there too, so car theives and joy riders need not apply ) just to try to diagnose it further?

 

Let me know either by posting in here or by PM'ing me

 

Thanks in advance

could it be the flywheel ?

[ewizzy]

Dont think its the flywheel as its speed dependant, not revs dependant....

 

Thanks for the thought though

[tobyg]

Just occurred to me, the flywheel would probably vibrate at high rpm if it was that, regardless of the speed of the car.
