Any video? Is it during acceleration or is it anytime the engine is running? Condition of belts, anything or any of the pulleys cracked? etc etc...

Well, there is something under the hood called a 1UZ-FE which is capable of producing a "roar" if the gas pedal is depressed far enough...

I'm not new to cars I know the engine is a v8 its more of a vibration rummble when acceleration and when I release the gas as I'm decellerating also. Belts look new runs strong sounds good at idle I'm thinking maybe motormounts?

Anyone know how to fix the twisted seat
