Hi, has anyone had any BUZZING in speakers, run from an amp mounted on the strut brace bracket in the boot of an R33 GTR. I have been told this is common for R33'S and worse for GTR'S ,as the battery and computers are in the boot

and the GTR fuel pump is bigger.

No buzzing when speakers are run through the factory wires.

The fix,i'm told,is to mount the amp away from the boot area,ie under the rear seats.

BUT i cant be bothered to do this...I'v put in a noise supressor kit on the battery and no good.

The amp is a fairly cheap one,can this be the cause of noise?

Will a better quality/expensive amp have better noise supression?

HELP ME!!

:D

There is alternator whine, which is a high-pitch whine with the revs of the car.

The buzzing though, could be something else. I suspect it's going to be the typical power interference thing though.

Try turning your gains down if you can't seperate the cables any more than you can.

I have a similar problem, but I haven't finished moving the amp around and deciding what i'm going to do.

    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
    • meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
