    2004 GT2 with 183K miles (alot, I know). The noise is related to the rpm. The quicker the revs, the more frequent the nosie. Rattling/clicking about 4 times a second while idling, and then it gose up from there. It happens almost all the time. Any one know what it could be?

    probably noisy lifts, add some lucas oil stabilizer and see if that helps.
