mate you might have an aftermarket fuel pump,.. i have a bosch 040 and it hisses nicely out the back of the car.. it starts to growl even louder when im almost out of fuel also.

and if you had an exhaust leak you would hear it.. it would sound very loud depending on the size of it.

are you certain the hissing is the fuel pump? My car had a hissing noise when one of the vacuum lines in the engine bay had a crack in it, same deal couldnt hear it inside but could outside

seems to be coming from back of car near fuel tank, thanks for the suggestion though.

i'm 100% positive it's your exhaust leak... i had my exhaust leak sound like a hissy/ farting noise.. cant hear it when you rev but when you lower the revs you can.. Get the leak fixed and problem solved

yeah i think you're right mate, i've got a new bracket to support the system now so it shouldn't vibrate/wobble loose now

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
