I have a 24 Perf 6mt and when I start it up cold I hear a loud vibration type noise. It almost sounds like a resonator is loose somewhere. After about 10 seconds the sound goes away and the engine evens out. Does anyone know what it is or have you experienced the same thing?

I have a 24 Nismo. With stock exhaust, it resonates something fierce. With the nismo track exhaust, it makes a different noise that sounds like it's coming from the speakers. Yes, my noise-cancel BS is turned off already....

I believe you’re hearing the waste gates wide open upon cold start.

I hear a rattle like sound for a couple seconds and it sounds like it’s coming from behind the engine and in the header area.

It seems to me like there's an rpm range slightly above idle which causes a resonance in the hatch area. In certain conditions, I've heard this buzz until fully warmed up. Cold outside, A/C load, parked on the right sized hill.... not sure what combination is the trick.

When my engine turns on (first time in the morning) and on wide open throttle I get some sort of vibration in the trunk area that I can hear which is annoying. I recently did sound deadening on the metal in the trunk. I am not sure if it is the trunk release actuator or some other part of the trim. Any thoughts?
