anyone? Please, lol

Hey guys, As of yesterday my cars (R33 s2 gts-t) been making this really odd noise, it sounds like sticking a pen in a fan, it only happens under acceleration and mainly in 2nd gear either at 40kph or 60kph, like i said its a fairly loud buzzing pen/pencil in a fan noise...though it doesnt happen all the time, it was happening all this morning then this afternoon it didnt happen once, and its randomly happening tonight... Any idea's? Also after i got my new exhaust (catback) put on my cars been smelling fairly bad, a mate told me new mufflers do smell bad for a while, is this true? Cheers

Sorry guys i should have specified! Currently the engine is ENTIRELY stock, and it's only got 37,000km - genuine, so i hope the fuel pumps not gone! A boost problem sounds semi serious! i was hoping that the idle just needed to be turned up a little or something? How do i check for boost leaks?

Hey all! As of today i am the proud new owner of a 96' Black R33 GTS-T! It's FOB and i am the first Australian owner. Its in absolutely brilliant condition bar one thing, it's idling like poo and stalling quite frequently once stopped at lights etc, it drives perfect once going though! The car compliance place i got it from said this was due to stale jap fuel in the tank but i filled it to full and it's still doing it! He also said a good long drive would sort it out...I'm at work at the moment though and will have to test that part of his advice tonight. Have you guys experienced this before? Is it overly bad? it's really annoying me and if a long drive doesn't fix it i'll be very frustrated. Also he hooked me up with an XFORCE cat back exhaust, 3.5" piping, are these good quality?
