Default Annoying metalic rattle

Hey Guys,

So my car makes this weird annoying rattle, I dont think its clutch buzz, as it makes the noise in gear and in neutral, but I could be wrong, also really hope its not... current mods are invidia 60mm test pipe, fujitsubo legalis r exhaust, stock headers, ive gone underneath and banged around on the floorpanel heat shields above the test pipe with my hand and it didnt seem loose, also did the same with exhaust manifold heat shields, I had an unknown cat before and it made the noise with that on aswell, the honey comb was still in one piece, also i have a hairline crack at the welds of my y pipe but i dont think that would make that type of noise, video is attached, also hear it when i rev pretty high (in neutral, havent tried in gear yet as my cars still on jack stands

Check the battery heat shield. Also check for loose exhaust tips. Especially check the S header bracket (connects header to trans) underneath car.

When you say battery heat shield I suppose its that large black one, thats next to the header, ive banged on that and the actual header heat shield and nothing, I did notice my battery tie down is also just hanging there, so will check that one next, gonna get under tomorrow and check the header bracket. will report back
