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:

Hahaha.. Engine monster thats new!

Thanks everyone for the advice Ill get it checked up tmr morning.. and keep you posted. So it can be either the turbo grinded its a** off or the belt for the alternator? Ill see what it could be.. hope nothing bad bad bad! LOL. Thanks again

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.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • 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
