I got an Evo 5, i would ask someone on the evo forum but im not a member and you guy

have always been helpful when i had my skyrine.

So i only recently picked up on this, its not a loud squeal and i can barely notice it

when the engine is on (its does this when its also off). When i push in the blutch

it squeals and when i slowly let go of it just at the friction point it will make a

creaking noise also unoticable when driving.

Shifting is really smooth and gearbox is silent while driving, the car has stock exhaust

so i would pick up on noises whilst driving easily.

The sound is coming from the black arrow pointing to the back circle thing.

That long black thing is a slave cylinder. Is the sound coming 'from' there, or 'through' there? Maybe you're hearing a squeal from inside the gearbox?

Im pretty sure its not coming from the slave cylinder, i can only hear it coming from the hole leading into the gearbox.

Sounds like the clutch fork pivot point is dry. Peel the boot back and give it a quick squirt http://www.wuerth.co.th/homepage_en/product/product_HHS.html

Just make sure you dont get any on the clutch plate!

^^ correct

had the same issue on my 7, used high temp lube spray from SCA

Awesome thanks for the advice, will give it a go soon this week and let you know how i went.

  • 2 weeks later...

bastards, all moving to the darkside :(

I drove a Mazda 3 MPS with just a remap, larger top mount, and a turbo back.. makes my R33 feel like a bucket of shit

Drove a mates Evo 8, made me want to burn my car lol

Lol same here.

I'm trying to convince a friend of mine into buying an MPS.

I drove one with 220kW at the front wheels.. makes full boost at 2800 rpm... and fries 3rd with KU31 tyres at the front.

They're amazing, the torque is just phenomenal !

To many dickheads own mazda 3 MPS' here. Think they are top shit. Still looks like a chicks car to me even if they are pretty quick

hhaahhaa go drive one and your thoughts will change

Oh im sure they are good to drive. But seriously, the guys that own them here are just dickheads. People have ruined the car. My girlfriend has a polo gti anyway, not as fast but nice to drive

FWD's arent really my thing lol

I'm looking at my next car, I kinda want a C250 (a C63 would be great but a bit out of my price range :) ) or a BMW 323i. I have toyed with the idea of getting a VF Commodore because it makes much more sense. But think I'd rather the BMW at the moment

Wow this is off topic now isnt it...............

Our age is showing :(

Yeah BMW 323 would be a great car, just sneak a turbo on it when the missus isn't looking. Should be loads of fun!

Eww don't get a bogandore! Rather a XR6T anyday of the week!

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
