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!

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!

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
