Hi guys. I recently bought a R33 Skyline GTR and I love that it was so quiet inside and clean.

But yesterday I had a nail pulled out of my tyre at the tyre place and ever since I have this firetrucking horrible noise when I take my foot off the power at about 60 K's

So yesterday the very same day I hear it I took the wheel off * Front right hand * and looked high and low for this noise. I could see no sign of scrubbing or of anything being out of wack. So I spent 4 hour's looking over everything to do with steering, wheel and brakes and couldn’t find a dam thing out of place.

So I took it out again and low and behold the same dam noise came back. The noise is lick sticking something in the spokes of a bike. So again I took the wheel off and again I find no sign of any kind or rubbing or damage to anything on the right front wheel. This is really starting to make me wonder what could be wrong. Has anyone encountered anything like this before? Or is there anything you can sagest I have a look at?

Apparently you moved me to the right section. Thanks

The problem with this is that I have already had the wheel off. I couldn’t see a dam thing wrong with it. The little whipper snapper that changed the tyre may not have anything to do with the sound. But I will speak with them tomorrow and see what the go is. More info on the noise is also that it only happens when I am coasting or negative boost. If I tap the power it firetrucks off. The noise does not always happen either.

I take it to the guy I get to fix my cars and he said he can’t find anything. Put it up on a hoist and him and myself sat under that dam thing for hour's and still couldn’t come up with any resin why it would make the noise.

Update.

After spending another two days under the car pocking around I decided there was no way the sound could be coming from tyre. So I took it down and though I will take if for another run and listen to the sound again. I drove the car for an hour without hearing the noise. Witch scares me a little. Becouse the noise isnt there anymore and I didnt find what it was. If anyone has any idears please let me know.

  • 8 months later...

The noise ended up being a front planitery gear set tooth droping.

Witch 3 weeks later ended up in little fine peaces of mettle floating around my front wheel drive. Witch in turn ended up with a new front wheel drive

needing to be installed cost 5500 witch was not to bad i guess :domokun:

    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
