What I'm interested in, is whether or not drivetrain noise can/will make it's way into the chassis from the rear diff, when the problem is actually upstream (t-case - center diff) due to the solid mount.

Of other note:
During the last autocross I noticed it was distressingly easy to lock up the front tires under braking, and when they locked up (front right more than the left) the whine sounded really bad. To me this sounds like a symptom of center diff / transfer case issue being that the front axle(s) are stationary and the rear driveshaft is still spinning as normal?

comment?

Hey there cubbie! nice to see another local. And grats on the evo. You picked up quite a beauty, kept eye balling the threads on the progress on that car, then saw the original owner put it up for sale to start a 2011 sti sedan build i believe. ( if thats the same car )

Our meets on Thursdays are around 8 to when ever people start to leave. There also another meet on Wednesdays on Durango and flamingo i believe are the cross streets.
