well I was on my way to a buddies house last night, speeding.. the car felt fine. On the way out I turn my car on and this really weird deep noise (I thought it was my intake) comes on. It sounds like something is drowning, anyways I pull out and accelerate and my driver side seat belt is rattling like hell! On top of that every time I turn something under my seat (under the car to the driver side) feels like its going to fall off!

symptoms:
- Funky muffled noise when accelerate in 2nd gear
- when I turn or hit a small bump it feels like something is going to fall off my car under my seat (drivers side seat)
- My seatbelt buckle rattles like hell

So basically the problem is something under the car is loose, because I feel it kind of swinging around when I turn or go over a bump.

Performance I dont really feel that big of a difference but then again this just started yesterday, I check my under the hood and my intake is on perfect, and nothing to my amateur eye looks out of place, suggestions please my friends :)

Hmm. Well it's a japanese car--get used to it. While reliable, often fitted with tinny, hollowy parts. I like my Solara but it jiggles, twitches, howls, does all kinds of crap.

I'd say your struts/strut tops are in need of replacing
