MarkR33 Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Hi guys I was just curious , I was sitting next to the booze bus the other night watching the drunks get pulled over .. (fun but scary) like 1/3 cars anyway , ther was this r31 skyline that was coming along and from about a 1km away i could hear this continuos whistle sort of like a whirrrrring sort of noise it sounded like it was a turbine or something on a jumbo winding down , and the car wasnt even going very fast it was continuosu even when it slowed down it subsided but when it took off again , the whistling startied up ive been racking my brain trying to think of what it is what do you think? turbo? bov , someone blowing a whistle? haha any clues??

Weq Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 R31s are prone to worn gear boxes that make a blower type whine sound, i hear it very often. Sounds like a blower to me.

TIMMMAYYY Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 R31s are prone to worn gear boxes that make a blower type whine sound, i hear it very often. bullshit. prone to diff's making whine sounds you mean. if it wasn't that, and it was on light acceleration, it'd be a pod filter.
