Could any GTR experts advise me what the problem with this car could be. I have seen a number of R34s ( about 5 of them ) with this noise and run on problem at the auctions. Some of the cars have been mint but I have left them alone in fear of a rear main seal.

My friend didnt check if the noise went away when the clutch was pressed but on this one but on others he checked it did.

I have read it could be after market tripple plated clutches but was told a clutch wouldnt sounds like that.

What causes the run on ?..

What would it roughly cost to fix this issue ?

Please watch the video and see what you think..

Thanks in advance.

mines got it too - really used to worry me in the beginning.

i also got a twin plate clutch, lighten flywheel.

have had the car over 2.5 years now and have got it checked by reputable shops, all say its normal.

now i don't even notice it - also 6 speed box itself can be a bit tight till its warmed up.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
