hey guys..... there is this dam noise that has only started about a day or so ago... i was driving home at night... and noticed that the car when it hits full boost (1 bar) a wistling, screeching kind of noise is comin from the turbo area... it is most noticable when u boot it in 2nd...and gets less and less as the gears go by... i checked for leaks and so forth.... and had a look in the front of the turbine to see if the props are all tight and everything seems fine... its a really weird noise... and i am sure its either the turbo or the external gate.... but stumped/... its a r33 with a t04e garret turbo high mounted..with all the bolt on mods.... any help would be appreciated... but this sound has me sketching!!!!!... thanks guys

gaskets?

between engine and manifold

manifold and turbo

turbo and dum pipe.

see if all the bolts to those are tight (or even still there)

hey dude..cheers for the reply.... ummm the gasket for the engine to manifold is almost brand new and just had all the exaust studs replaced with stronger lock tight bolt... and that there is all lookin sweet... all the bolts are there and seem to be tightened up beautifully.... its got me stumped and im freakin it.... lol... n e other ideas??... thanx man

anyone with n e ideas what so ever.... ??... all bolts are tight...external astegate is tightened up and all... the only thing that looks wrong is an oil leak from the side of the engine (its tiny tiny tiny) and i dont think that would have n e thin to do weith it.... cause its been there for alot longer than the noise...

sounds like its an air leak. could be gaskets. Also try checking all the silicon hose joiners are tight. u say the exhaust gasket has been recently replaced, the mechanic could have been lazy and not tightened everything up

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof  
    • Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
    • You got any more detailed photos of the tow ball set up?
