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)

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics

      @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?

      Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
