ok so fitted some baker engine mounts today and my gearstick has started making a horrible rattle/vibration when letting off the throttle at 3k+ revs.
I can get it to stop doing this by holding the gearstick.

It used to do this a little in reverse coming off my drive with the old mounts but nothing like this

Any ideas?

Are you running uprated linkages per chance?

Yeah got rose jointed linkages on it.

Seems to be coming from the base of the stick though
Is there any bushes where it joins the bottom of the stick to the gear rod?

    2 fitted yeah.

    There is also that ball stuck to the gearstick itself which I suppose could loosen over time. If you can manage with the car off the road a couple of days it may be worth dropping the assembly or at least get it in the air and and have someone wiggle it so you can see if there's movement at the point from rod to stick.

    Your removing the rubber part from the linkage so some noise may become apparent, not all do it for some reason, I have all mine fitted with them (Naturally) and never had any issues.
    Shameless plug, Linkage's stocked and currently the smaller rods have left and right hand threads so you can adjust them on the car as removing them is not the easiest thing to do.

    Old thread I know, but just to clear this up I have this car now.

    Where the car has a rather nice 2.5" exhaust and the position of the lambda means it fouls ever so slightly on the main linkage.
