I have a non-turbo R34 and the exhaust keeps popping. a mechinic told me that it was the high tension leads and that i will need new ones? another mate said that there aren't any leads there!

so i was wondering if there are any or not and how do i fix this popping noise?

Can't help you with the popping noise but Skylines don't have plug leads.The coils sit directly on top of the plugs.Mine does the odd little pop when I change gear but I don't worry about it.

Is it popping or "wurbling"?

I've got a S2 stagea (same engine, and 3" turbo-back exhaust - same design as for a skyline just a bit longer) and if I take my foot off the accelerator or just hold it there lightly to coast down it will sometimes make a kind of 'wurbling' noise. This is quite normal with an aftermarket exhaust.

For me it only ever occurs on deceleration or just cruising with the accelerator only slightly pressed or not at all.

Also some people have mentioned their exhausts popping on gearchange, which I believe had something to do with running rich...but cant be sure.

If this isn't it then hopefully u sort it out soon :(

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
