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!

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
