Def not the cooling fan the sound is coming from the turbo side of the engine ahh looks like i will have to pull the piping off and sheck the compresser side of the turbo for play. not a bad movie for a 1.3mp phone mounted in the hole of the headrest :P

Had the same sound when i did my 2535 install on my old 32 years ago...checked everything and couldn't find the cause of it...funnily enough...adding a resonator along the catback to reduce exhaust noise levels totally got rid of the siren wailing sound too...i put it down to some sort of weird resonant frequency which was eliminated with the addition of the resonator...now its highly possible its totally unrelated but i spent 6 months hunting down the cause so regardless i was happy...

Found problem!!! Broken 2 bolts off dump of turbo underneath :) broken due to rapid heating cooling of that area of turbo I guess...and oh found a broken manifold stud as well at the back so hopefully fixing that will fix the whail sound.

You can hear the sound in the vid heaps of times all the way through its the noise like a whail sound as the turbo spools up. Will make another vid to better show the noise

Thanks for the input guys :)

Very happy skyline owner!

    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
