i was driving one night giveing my car (r33 gtst SII) a bit of a boot, and a high pitched spooling noise came up when i was passing over 5krpm, then a couple days later was cruising around with music up didnt notice untill i got home to turn the music down my car sounded like a tractor... what would the problem most likely be? snaped manifold studs, turbo gasket? help? lol.. this hapend while back cars been sitting in drive way due to 6 months loss of licence im going to get my dad to drive my car to mechanics some time soon but i dont want to go there not knowing how much money ill need or hell crack the shits lol

Leaking manifold --> turbo gasket, and probably a broken stud or two.

If its manifold & studs, around $700-$800 as its turbo off, and you need to replace every stud at once or its likely to happen again.

Heaps of threads on this already, pretty common issue

Full seeek...

$100/hour labor to start with. Search the forum regarding exhaust leak, and possibly you can find the leak yourself, or at least direct the mechanic to it.

EDIT: When will i ever learn to refresh a page...

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
