hey guys ... im not exactly sure when this noise actually started. my r32 sounds like a bus!

i think the sound has something to do with my fan ... i thought maybe the clutchs in the fan had seized and the fan was spinning constantly, but when the car is off and i spin the fan it free spins fine.

its a vooing noise that goes with my revs... the onlything i could think of is the fan but i cant seem to see any problem with it...

anyone got any ideas/?/

yeh its is like a humming noise from the front ... i think the noise started after i got my clutch chaznged but i dont see what that could do with the timing belt or fan ...

i dont have FMIC on it yet .. still in stock form... ill check outmy timimng belt as soon as i get home ...

any other ideas guys

i appreciate it

lol yer when i bought my gtr it had that vooming noise, sounds similar to a formula one haha and the problem was my clutch fan, mine was spinning aswell but as soon as i changed it the rb noise was back so yer it was my clutch fan at the end, they are not expensive mate, i got mine for $60 installed but was from a mate, maybe ur luckier, good luck champ,

cheers tony

well i took my car to transcar and they told me what the prob was, mate anywhere can do it for you just make sure you get a good clutch fan but just get your mechanic that works on ur car to do it,

man i know the noise is just ugly lol, whenever my car hit boost it was a formula one lol, no whre near an rb26 hahha

cheers mate

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
