It seems to happen after ive been driving and the car has been warmed up.

Sitting at idle the noise seems to be coming from maybe the belts and around the turbo side (i dare say..)

Not 100% sure, it doesnt seem to be comming from the actual belts and ive had a 100k service done where the water pump and tensior and timming belts were changed (3000ks ago).

While stationary if i put the clutch in, the noise stops then when off the clutch the noise starts up.

anyone had similar probs or know what could be up?

driving me a little crazy.

cheers

ah k, well searched throw out bearing, couldnt find too much on price to fix, if its easy to fix and is it a major critical thing. (dangerous to drive?)?

its been going on for a couple of weeks. im glad its not the turbo (well.. hopefully its not)

where is this throw out bearing located?? on car and to be purchased?

getting a tune at Creatd this friday so ill word em up about it.

any other ideas?

cheers

gearbox just needs to come out.. try and find who will do that for the cheapest, and no the car isnt dangerous to drive even tho the bearings making noise it'll probly just get louder but youll find if your lacking money atm (chrissy time and all) you could possibly drive with it like that for ages...

Mine's doing it at the moment. Been doing it for about 2 months. I'm getting my clutch replacing on Friday though. They'll replace the bearing then, it's located near your clutch. Not sure where to go to buy the throw-out bearing separately. Maybe ask Slide or Kudos (traders). They sell exedy clutches so they should be able to source a bearing for you.

But yeah, don't stress about it at the moment. It's just annoying, not dangerous.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
