Vibration when brake stepped on at standstill, 2009 GU

yeah very interesting might even be from the the s-bend from the turbo going to the underbody, once warm and on the slight incline + the torque on the driveline while in drive might shift the exhaust just enough to kiss the body, hopefully it is something able to be tightened or cut and re-bolted(which was my case) and not just a flaw in the exhaust making it too close. mate of mine who fitted exhausts for 5 years was saying whole sale they would get 15% off from buying an exhaust if they had a pipe bender on site so they could make slight adjustments without the need to send them back, as he said 95% of pre made exhaust were not a perfect fit.

Definitely. Every car of same make and model is identical, yet different.
I had the same issue with my D22, which also had a rattly Beaudesert exhaust. Was banging loudly against the firewall. Had to take it off the turbo, do some bending and re-fit. And to get to the back of the turbo on the new 2.5L D22's is not a nice task.
Which reminds me my Patrol rattle also happens a lot when in reverse, so putting some strain on the driveline that way.

yeah that makes me think the problem maybe there rather than next to the gear box, also just a thought there was another bracket on mine that mounted to the side of the engine block which once again was a couple mm from lining up so i took to it with a grinder and cut it of not sure if your system will have that or not?
