Fast Intentions on NISMO

If you're hearing clunking and metal-on-metal noises, you need to crawl up under there and see where it's rubbing on either the chassis braces or the evap shield.

I have the same setup as you and got the rattle in the back as well. I pulled the rear hatch plastic and put some one sided foam weather stripping around the perimeter and where the plastic has the step about half way up. The foam I used was 1/4 inch stuff I got from lowes and that did the trick. Once you get 750 to 1000 miles you will notice it mellow a little.

Thanks. I've been trying to figure out how to describe the noise. I think the word is "Buzz". The rear really buzzes starts 1.8k rpm up to 3-3.5k.

I don't know why this word didn't come across my mind sooner.
