Listen to the Video, I thought it was the Belts and i tried spraying some Wd40 and it was better but then i figure there was another Strange Noise

Sounds like the the Lifters but ive done the Lifter Tune up Lubricant, but still nothing, Got one of my mates and he said it could be your Rod Bearings worst Case Scenario

Its a strange Chirping high pitch noise, similar to the belts. When engine warms up it quite's down but when i accelerate or Rev you can Hear it, Very Scary Noise ):

What do you guys Reckons ??

PLEASE HELP ! Taking to mechanic this Weekday but just want to know if anyone has any knowledge. Don't want the mechanic to be Dodgy and rob my money !!

So in the end it was my timing belt, my harmonic balancer was off, changed the exhaust manifold gasket and turbo gasket and changed all my belt and bam fixed it all, and then changed my water pump and valve cover. Now it runs like a dream haha spent about $2k in total for parts and labour. Now I'm broke lol

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
