I've owned my skyline for about 11 months or so now and for quite a while there has been a rattle when revving around 2.5-3 grand. When i accelarate slow the sound is very faint or not noticable. Some have suggested it could be the exhaust but i'm not sure.

Now that i'm working again i feel it's time to get the poblem fixed. Has anyone experienced this or heard of anything similar?

Any help is apprecieated!

what kind of rattle ?? it could be anything?? check that there are no wires hitting the driveshaft .. that will cause a loud rattle .. so yeah check to see that there isnt' any loose wires anywhere under the car ... exhaust shouldn't rattle when u accelerate, also could be a loose panel somewhere ..

when the exhaust is cold the rattel is fairly loud (noticable over the exhaust when the windows are up) but after a bit of driving the rattel is less noticeable or not there at all.

The rattel is only there when revs are 2.5-3 grand, if it were loose pannels or wires hitting wouldn't rattel constantly??

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂

      Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.

      Upgrade an rb25neo

      They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
