Buddy, you worry a lot. Most likely your noise is from a rubber bushing in the rear suspension, of which there are a dozen or so. The Transmission output bushing and the Rear differential input bushing are fairly difficult to change and require specialized tools. I've not seen many go bad.

Another possibility is the center carrier bearing for the Driveshaft. Now THAT I could believe. Not a difficult task to change it either.

Now. It shows that you are very excited about your car. And rightfully so. That is a sweet ride. It is also fairly bulletproof too. A little preventative maintenance is all you need to concern yourself with now.

Dump the engine and transmission oil and replace with quality synthetic. Flush the coolant. Clean it up. Check the brake pad thickness. Crawl under it and have a good look around. Maybe a tune up too. Look for nails in the tires, that kind of stuff.

But then go DRIVE the thing. Thats going to be WAY more fun than sitting around wondering about what might break. When something does break, post it here. We'll help you get it fixed.

Take Care!
