when i brake next to a wall and can hear whats going on, i can hear a kinda of creaking sound as i apply the brakes harder

i'm guessing this might be the firewall flexing and could be stopped with a master cylinder stopper?

thanks

I have the same sound and i have fitted a brake master cylinder stopper to my R32. It didn't go away.

If you find out let me know. Do you have ABS? Is it leaking?

I think I know what sort of sound you're talking about... is it more noticeable when turning and breaking? I asked a mechanic about it and they told me that because the discs are floating discs that there's still a little bit of movement and that would cause the creaking sound. I've also installed a UAS Master Cylinder Stopper.

pretty sure it's coming from in the engine bay, i can make it do the sound when the car is sitting still

no ABS

i do have a TINY leak on one of the connections for one of the lines off the master cylinder, it's damp around the connection while we're at it anyone know how to fix a leak like that?

i have similar problem on me r33 gtst. ive changed the caliper, put in slotted disc and changed pads as well as i put on coilovers so everything is changed on that side. it still makes screatching noise from the right wheel when brake hard and keeps making the noise when applying brakes later. but not as much it did earlier. mechanic didnt know what to do.

All R32's the MBC flexes, the ones that have hit the track alot or used in the mountains will tend to have the most flex, I put a Cusco Master Brake Stopper on my R32 GTR and it did wonders for the pedal travel (alot less before engagement point)

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
