I've got a R32 GTR and it makes a whining noise under acceleration above 60kph or so, when I release the loud peddle the noise goes away. The boost is okay and the car goes just fine besides this stupid whining noise (note: girl friend not in car :))

Thought it might be thrust bearing but when its idling its not noisy (rattles a bit coz I got a twin plate clutch).

any1 got any ideas about this one.

cheers

the noise is probably coming from your gearbox or diff, (possibly)

its a common import problem, have you changed the oils?

persuming that this is the problem , my car does the same, probably alot of other ppl's too just they dont realise.

as for a soloution, i got no idea. but there might be some comfort in knowing your not alone. :P

Could be even something like the alternator, and all the belts around that area or the bolts. More revs its spinning faster, could make sense - but then again it could be any one of the things those guys suggested..prolly gearbox most likely.

Don't know if an R30 can even be comparable to this, but neway i have a whining noise coming from the transmission which is pretty screwed at the moment, so my guess is that it would either be your transmission or diff:D (But dont be like 1 of my mates who put banana skins in the diff to make it seem smooth *sigh*)

    • GTSboy, thank you again. i’ve been reading all the other SAU RB25 vacuum line threads and you have the utmost patience for people asking “where do my vacuum lines go”. it’s appreciated. i did also enlist a few other RB guys local to me.  i would like to run 5 to 4. turbo pressure side to wastegate actuator. i would like to run 3 to 1. power steering air valve line to intercooler outlet. (this is how it was previously). i was told 2 is the bleed port for the boost solenoid - which i’m not running - so should be capped.   anyone see any problems with that?    
    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
