I've got a rattle from my Tenzo SS, but it's designed for an Integra not a EJ (which is why it rattles). Do you think it's possible that B&M messed up on the design of the SS? Just a thought.

well they did something wrong, i bought quality expecting quality, the car is put away for the winter. so i wont be able to mess around and find a way to stop this rattling, if there is a way. so your guy's mission is to figure this thing out, if possible, and inform all of us how to fix it.

my heat shield has already been bent back, so its not that.

i regreases my bushings last night and mofo still rattles
i still haven't tried the dynomat stuff yet...
another problem:
anyone noticed a "eeeek" noise when shifting from 2-3-4 and vice versa? I think the culprit is the balance ball on the ss. it hits the bar at the end of the shift stab bar. i'm guessing this is for weight purpose :dunno: anywho, it seems the ball is too big on the b&m ss.

I was gonna get the B&M edge shifter, but do you guys recommend against it? Have you found out how to fix the rattling?
