96 gsr - help

[ZackKVtec]

i have a 96 gsr and every time my tach needle passes about 3500 rpms i get an annoying rattle, and on the highway if im cruising at about 70-75 the rattle stays and is rather annoying, i already have a new cat because mine was recalled, so i know its not that - did anyone else have this problem, if so what the hell is it?

sounds like the heat shield for the cat or worn shifter bushings

i've got the same problem. its the heat shield on the cat, i'm just to lazy to jack up the car and fix it. lol mine starts rattling at 2,800 though.

I have a 95 GSR and mine started rattling at 3500 because of the heat shield for the exhost manifold where the O2 sensor is. It would rattle between 3500-3700 very weird.

stupid rattle

is the fix as simple as tighting the bolts or is a new heat shield required? im not having this problem yet, but just for future reference
