It pops a tiny bit when i let off the throttle, but the real noise comes when i touch it and accelerate again. Same thing? And is that bad for my exhaust over time?

I'm halfway considering selling it, too much paranoia involved thinking my *** end's gonna drop out from under me at any second among other (hopefully) minor problems..then i bury the throttle and am all happy again
well if it is a problem like i had, i found a complete rear end for 200 on craigslist and swapped it my self, took me all day, but i did it, main reason it took me so long its cuz the rear end i bought was from a ls1 ws6 and the abs sensor is on the axil rather than inside the diffi like my cars was, which also cause a problem for my break mounting or w/e you wanna call it, long story short i sacrificed abs and swapped axils on the rear end and SHAMWOW i had a great running car...thennn i hit a truck a month later....:/

It's not too loud but loud enough that I can hear it, I'll try and get a sound clip tonight on the way to work and post it up tomorrow morning.

It sounds like this could be 1 of a million things, I might just find a mechanic that'll look it over for free and tell me what's wrong with it :/

So I couldn't get a good enough recording, too much background noise over the noise that I wanted to catch . Gonna get it looked at next week though. I did however find out that my differential is leaking. Not much at all just a tiny drip, I'm pretty sure it's just a seal I need to replace.

On another note though, some ******* gang banger ran me off the road and over a curb and ditch into a parking lot. Long story short I got very lucky and just needed an alignment and stitched up my front bumper till I can buy a new one.

Got lucky I didnt break a control arm or bend the **** outta my spindle. I'll take it, $90.00 over god knows how much is a good deal to me lol.
