Hey guys just want a few ideas here, Other nite went driving with a mate anyhow after a while of driving about the car started to get a "werr" noise from the driveline @ about 65 kays and about only under acceleration tho, be it boosting or easy throttle. I a bit worried about this noise now so here my thoughts on it..

1. Diff problem, lsd has gone in it or maybe bearing has picked up some shit and has damage!?

2. Gearbox - As the "werr" happens in 3rd and 4th pretty much it could be mainshaft bearing??? 1/2nd gear is no dramas normal feel no probs but in 3rd and 4th it does and when lightly touching the gear stick you can feel a small vibration to go with the noise..

There is no noise present on free wheel - Netural with clutch both engaged and disengaged and no noise when coasting or down hill only under accel..

What do you guys think? Im gonan drop both oils later today and see if there is any unusual colours. And what oils should i refill with?? apart from redline cause no1 uphear has them!

Car is R33 gtst 95 manual

Cheers all

my r32 does this as well, only when the throttle is cracked a bit. its normal for a rear wheel drive to make a little mechanical noise. WRXs were prime candidates for this. (even though AWD). It will make a noise all the time if somethings wrong. could just be a knackered thrust bearing from clutch dumps?

Seeing it only does it in 3rd n 4th id say it would have to be a gearbox realted noise. Most likely a shaft bearing spun up. It would do it always under acceleration if it was the diff i woulda thought.. I once had 5th gear make that kind of noise sounded like a rally car haha. Best to get a driveline specialist to look at it... Hope that helps ..

    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
