Default Help!!

Hey got a lexus gs400, here is my issue.
While driving if i gas it real hard i hear a rattling sound, but when i put the car in neutral while still driving the noise goes away or even in park. Thought it was the mounts chaged them but still having the issue.
Have no idea what it could be maybe my tranny?
