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!

    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
    • Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy.
