everything makes noises!

my passenger front spring clicks when the car moves slowly...

my clutch is squeky, so is my brake pedal

and when im cruising slowly somehwere, coz my exhaust isn't that loud, everyone can hear...

click click squeak click sqeak click

sounds like my car is gona fall to pieces but its goin beautifully...

i know i prolly need new springs they dont look too healthy since they got off the boat,

but how to do we stop the pedals from squeking? where or how can i apply some sort of lube to make em shut up?

okay - im gonna bitch about my car now...

my passenger window doesn't work anymore.

small patch of clear coat on the rear left and around the taillights is coming off looks gay.

i've rooted my front bar to hell.

just cracked one of my blitz wheels the other day, and the other tyre only holds 9psi of air.

im low on powersteering fluid (well, i hope, coz my hicas light is always on).

im finding it harder to crank nowadays (prolly just fuel filter).

okay - im done.

but yeah... i love my skyline! :P

so any ideason how to eliminate those noises>?

as for the squeaks, its probably just loose sh!t. when i bought my car i found 2 screw drivers in it, i was like what the fark. but now i understand every bloody screw has come loose, the handle for my seat is loose, my dash has come loose (that was quictrack guy) and my centre console came loose, when they were loose they squeaked when i went over bumps etc... but i just put some lock tight on and screwed them in. and they havn't come loose since.... me touches wood

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
