What condition is the stock steering wheel?

Yeah but never heard it this loud. Im now thinking might be the cat converter. I've bought the car now anyway so let's hope its not serious

Repost. Stupid phone

Yeah I discovered last night from the engine number that it's series 1, just the update with s2 coils and whatnot (according to the engine number). Is there anyway to tell if it's the original engine by comparing the numbers? The rattle sounds external, and I'm pretty sure it's underneath the car. The Gearbox thing really is a pretty slight notch, and there's no sign of it when you're Getting up it so hopefully a service will resolve that. Cheers guys made me a bit less nervous about my first skyline

I looked at a series 2 r33 today and noticed a few things on the test drive. The price is good and the car seems to run and drive quite well. It's a 94 series 2, basically standard except for an aftermarket exhaust and bov. On boost there is a sort of tinny rattle noise that is reasonably loud. Its only when you get up in the rpm range. It sort of sounds like a heatshield or maybe one of those metal exhaust gaskets rattling...I hope. I guess could also be a noisy cat converter? Any suggestions on what else this might be, ie. anything serious? The only other problem was a slight notch going into third gear, like a synchro problem I guess. Curiously it doesnt do it when you're spanking it into gear, only when you're sort of cruising and casually slot it in. Is this something that could maybe be sorted with a change of g/b oil, or more likely to be a synchro that will only get worse with time? Appreciate any suggestions or advice. Cheers.
