R32 GTST with stock box and diff from what I can tell.

once I get to 40km/h, there is a vibration that starts that can be felt through the whole car.

it gets a little louder by 50km/h, kind of dissapears by 60-70 but is there as a loud hum..

By 100 and above, it is just a loud hum (similar to wheel bearing noise but doesn't change when you load up the left or right with bends in the road etc.)

It does it in gear and out of gear so I've ruled out anything frmo the gearbox forward.

How can I identify wether it is the shaft or diff or whatever else is between the back of the gearbox and the diff?

do you have a one piece tailshaft at all?

my brothers r33 has a one piece tailshaft and it vibrates like that, at highway speed you can actually feel the rearview mirror vibrating,

Also I would be getting this balanced again mine never did this if it runs true it shouldn't vibrate at all

it was another great job done by a shit workshop, :whistling:

would it cost much to balance? does it need removed from car or how do they do it?

I don't know how many pieces the tail shaft is..

whatever the stock R32 GTST one is I suppose.

So more than likely not diff then?

Anyone want to point me in the direction of a Brisbane tailshaft related workshop? lol

ummm not the one that did SilverS2's brothers original job obviously.

Balancing shouldn cost that much .

And yes it does need to be taken of the car to do so

They put it on a lathe and spin at x amount of Revs

And will spot weld weight where it needs it to balance it

Providing it has been built correctly and all the unis are on correctly

Take it to driveline specialist at springwood there may even be one at archer field ?

Any one that specialises in drivelines etc should be able to do a decent job

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
