Dear All,

I have this annoying sound that comes and goes whenever it feels like. More when its colder i find.

I believe it has something to do with the clutch but I just dont know.

I had clutch replaced 8,000kms ago with a cushion button from UAS, handles great a bit of a pain at the start but im used to it.

This sound occurs when the car is neutral, with clutch peddle out. it also occurs with clutch peddle in however i do notice a slight difference when in. It goes away once in gear and the car is moving.

Either a bearing is gone, but i thought this would be replaced when the clutch was.... and if so how can it go after 8,000kms or its something else and before i go back to the mechanic i thought i'd ask around. Any help would be much appreciated as i feel like spraying a whole can of WD40 till i find it lol!!!

The car is an R33 GTR non-vspec, and i recorded the sound as i was warming up car so it may sound a bit revier than the norm..

sorry guys had to link it as it went over 2MB..

Chris.

Thanks boys, next question...

Should this have been replaced when the clutch was done? and if not, how much am i looking at to fix what i estimate to be a less than $50.00 bearing? im mechancially minded but not to the extent of ripping motors and gearboxes out lol simpleton at best.

Chris

it shouldve been replaced but maybe the bearing seemed fine when the clutch was done?its a gearbox off job to swap the bearing out so expect the major part of what you pay to be labour. . .

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
