seems to be more noticeable after jacking it up

or do gtr diffs just sound like this :worship:

Oh BTW Orion, get a Rear Wheel Alignment done.

Cuz you have change the rear suspension, its put the geometry out of whack and needs to be done cuz its 4WD.

But I don't think that will help with the whirring noise. Or it might...

But when you jacked it up at the diff, I don't think you would have crushed or bent anything in the diff...

Anyway get ya mechanic to check it out.

My diff made a similar noise when rolling and while driving. Sounded like a Wwhhoooo noise. So I got it reconditioned.

I still got the receipt for my rear diff

About $1380, thats recondition, installed ready to drive and it was not as much as I thought too.

But get it check out 1st.

I did it at Le Mans Automotive in Templestowe.

You would of snapped a cooling fin before doing internal damage to the diff..

Not form the jacking.

Sure your not just Paranoid?.. Happens to me too..

Whirring diffs seem to be common threads in this section.

Just seems like their noisy from factory.

Best advise is change the diff oil.. see the condition its in and put a higher quality product in. See how that goes..

People jump to recondition diffs/'boxes too quicky.

For that price you may aswell buy an after market LSD.

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
