on deceleration i am getting a bad noise, and its getting worst. I didnt narrow it down until today when it started doing it in reverse and i was next to a building and could hear it real good
I think it is my carrier bearing in the middle of the driveshaft
Can any one verify that my suspensions are correct?

Those squirrels you hear are telling you that you need to do a JDM swap on the car, since it is already RHD. ;-)

Lets reword it then.
On deceleration the squirling noise sounds like its coming form the driveshaft carrier
or something like this

that video and the what the others are saying on rs25.com is exactly what Im dealing with, ...
it even went away and now is back after I got a bin of mulch for my wife. (dont worry it only weighed around 100lbs or so.)
also they are dealing with a 5 speed and Im dealing with a 4eat, so it cant be flywheel or clutch problem like the other guys thought.
Im planning on doing a manual swap in about 2-3 weeks, so hopefully that will take care of it and maybe be able to source the cause of them noise

im going to try lowering the air pressure in the rear tires and see if that helps at all, and if it does .... i guess that means its the center diff

i think i figured it out, Center Diff,
i dropped the rear tire pressure 4 psi below the front and it stopped a little bit, 300 miles later its not doing it at all
so thats telling me its the center diff, i cant even make it do it anymore
