k so like a month ago i notice something was making noise when i clutched first...

as i accelerated the shifter moved from it's station point to about 1-2inches to the right, when i stopped accelerating the shifter came back to it's original place. after i clutch the next gears it did the same thing only not as much... have i lost everyone yet?

well my motor mounts were loose, so i titened them up and it solved that.

my problem is, that it's doing it again... motor mounts suppose to have locktite or what? i'm not running too many mods, can't be the torque... i think i'm gonna go tighten them up again though... anything else that might need tightening? ideas? thanks.
