Does the noise get worse when you turn your lights on? Or increase as you rev the engine? I'm assuming you're running them off an amp. It sounds like you have engine noise - usually coming from a bad earth either at the amp or deck.... let me know how it's run and I'll offer more ideas.

yes, the more i rev the higher the pitch goes this is noticed very easily when driving and changing gears. Yes, running them of an amp.

no, noise doesnt get worse when i turn the lights on, only when engine is started.

thanx

this was one of the problems you guys were unable to sort out for me shayne ... not that i am complaining though mate :)

i can say forsure though that there was no common earth on the deck & amps, also speaker wire's were ran very close to power wires (although unavoidable in some spots)

sorry .. rant over :(

problem with a suppressor is that its only a bandaid on the problem meaning it will only reduce the problem not eliminate it.

make sure all the components are earthed at the same point . then try running the splits of the head unit( that will tell you if the problem is coming from the amp or head unit. do the tweeters have the engine noise when the car is running but the head unit and amp are off, that will tell you if the speaker placement or crossover placement is wrong.when the system is wired as you have it now and you disconnect the rca lead from the amp does the noise go away, if yes move the rca lead.if no plug the rca lead back in and take power away from the amp does the noise dissapear, if yes try moving the power lead( this doesny always fix the problem). try powering the amp from a battery external of the car ( just sitting on the floor) that will tell you if the car is at fault . lastly is the amp screwed to the floor being metal if so try placing it on a pieace of wood thereby its only earth source is the earth lead.

The stupid cables have been moved all around the car!! We thought they may be running too close to each other at first and we've tried about 10 different earthing points, but I still have a slight buzzing problem...not that I really hear it anymore, I'm that used to it!!

mine is still annoying me, sounds like a bov from within the car when im changing gears. a very loud one at that. my earth lead is placed on the same plae as the earth for the battery, could this be the problem as both are bolted to the same place.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
