If its a constant air leak noise, check if its the PCV plug. They are a common thing to break and cheap as chips to replace. It should be a fat hose coming out of the top of your engine near your coil pack cover (left side if ur facing it from the front). Just squeeze hoses until u find it if it happens at idle.

Yes it could be one of the vacuum hoses because mine also had a hissing noise but this was due to 2 things.

1. The vacuum hose where its connected to the stock boost gauge had a crack on it.

2. Had a leak on my exhaust. Inbetween the dump and the front pipe.

Gasket had to be replaced.

So yea you should try to find out where its coming from before its too late. I learnt that when i started my car at the shops when all of a sudden the car died after starting it. Vacuum hose just came off and the car was revving up and down on startup until it died.

hey,

if your cars feeling laggy.... its deffietly a rooted gasket either between the head and manifold or manifold and turbo.

have fun replacing them... i thought it was my exhaust manifold gasket.. turned out to be the turbo one... but i was gonna replace the exhaust one anyway... snaped 6 of the 12 studs that hold my manifold on... my car hasnt moved for a month :(

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
