Hi all. I am a new owner of a 95 gxe 5spd and everytime I go over a bump with just the rightside tires, the right front corner makes an audible squeak - a high pitched chirping sound. Is anyone familiar with what might cause this? I know it's not the shock or spring itself, since I had the eibach kit with kyb's installed but the chirping was happening before (and still does). Maybe some part isn't greased up properly?

Also, it seems to rev a bit higher than I was expecting at ~120km/h (70mph) - roughly 3200rpm in 5th gear. Is this normal? I test drove 2 '95 gxe 5spd and both revved at 3200rpm. Figure this seemed high for a 3.0l engine but I guess the final drive ratio is set higher? My 2000 Altima I leased revved at 2700rpm in 5th at 120kph.

Thanks all for your time,

Bill.

ur rpms are kinda high, because the altima has the same tranny. they should be the same

Squeak:

Sway bar bushings
Lower control arm bushings

Squirt some WD-40 one one component at a time, go for a ride and see if it stops it. As soon as you hit the right component with WD-40 your squeak will stop.

Like njmaxseltd said and also check the links at the end of your stabiliser bar. Mines does that sound before i change them.

I have something like 3100 rpm at 120km/h too and a 5 spd tranny. So you're ok.
