Hey everyone

Ive been having this weird kind of noise coming from the engine bay.. it sounds like a girl screaming her lungs out or like a kettle really giving out steam.. I have a pretty much stock R33 S1 GTST.. Ive been trying to figure out where the noise is coming from.. this happened before I even put on my boost controller weird.. and still happens after I put the boost controller on.. it tends to happen once I hit around 4500 rpms even if Im free revving it on neutral.. kinda freaks me out because I keep thinking Ive hit someone.. LOL.. any help would be appreciated.. never encountered such a weird ass thing.. thanks everyone.

Some bearings can sound like that. Also seen a turbo that was scraping the inside of the housing make a similar noise.

Get your head into the engine bay and find out exactly where it's coming from.

but make sure you wear a helmet.... it could be the engine monster trying to lure u in :starwars:

I recently had a squeeling problem with the belt that goes to the A/C pump.And it only did it when the A/C was on.

What i did to remdey the problem was,get a dry cake of soap and with the car running,from underneath it,i sat it on the inside of the belt and made sure to coat all sides of it (belt).

The only problem with that is the soap will wear down fast,and,can get caught and ripped out of your hands.Also you have to be very carefull where you put your fingers.

the water pump seals are squeeky..

if lost count on how many na-33s ive replaced the waterpumpon to get rid of the mad scream at idle

for some reason its the non turbo ones ive had trouble with.

go to holden and buy some (coolant or water pump pellets)

they lube up the seals on the pump. if not you need a water pump.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
