Okay here's what happened.
I was out driving around, couldn't find anyone to race so stupid me decided to just go tearing down my neighborhood.
I take off from a stop, hit second gear, wind up to 7k rpm, and then i hear what sounded like a gear grinding, but I was still in gear. So I slowed down and now when I rev it sounds/feels like something is rubbing bad. At idle it sounds okay, but when i rev up to like 3-4k it sounds like it does sometimes in the morning where its this loud grumble. Once I hit 5k it really makes a weird noise like i can feel a vibration in the car and you can feel it from the gas pedal too. I dont think its the fans, and I took off the timing belt cover ( i think) the grey piece to the right of the engine, to see if something was broken in there cause it sounds like its coming from that side but everything looked fine. Another way to describe the feeling is that it hesitates going into higher rpms, almost like when the AC is on, you can feel that extra strain. But its not lag. And it still has power, if I ignore the sound I can still push the car to go but i'm afraid something will happen worse. I also noticed when driving at low rpms now... that even when i keep the gas steady it jerks every now and then. I tried changing the sparks, still the same. You can hear the engine putt a little when you hold the gas down at any rpm while in neutral. Not sure what to do now, gonna have a friend mechanic look at it tommorow. Any idea where to start? Thanks!
