just wondering what happens at 100km/hr ? ..

Ive got a n/a 33 and ive noticed some kind of sound (sounds like an electric motor moving something) once you reach the speed...

Im sure its benneficial to the car, just wondering what it is...

there are hundreds of electronic motors in R33, take pic!.

is it possiblw that sounds are from under the middle or left right DASH? more like "click click click" sounds... then most like click aircon air acurator where teeth are worn off.

or its possible that ATTESSA pump is working -(if youhave GTS4)

or you are hearing things - I go see GP if I were you :)

cheers

Pva glue - I have the 'click click click' noise when i first start my car... like an aircon vent is jammed or something.. its probably the aircon air acurator like you said, where is this located? and is it repairable, or do i need to buy a new one?

this is a common problem in 33s (also heard of 32s having it as well)

as long as u open the vents to both face and feet you wont get it.

you can get the actuator from nissan, but the whole dash needs to come apart... just leave it imo

as to the 100km/hr thing, i got no idea - could be your fuel pump?

Take pic of the motor at 100km/hr ? ...errmmm..that might be abit difficult :D

i dont think its the aircon coz i rarely turn it on (petrol is too precious to be wasted on climate control in the car)

Its not a clicking sound, sounds more like an electric motor moving something and lasts for 1 sec , then when you go below 100km/hr you hear the sound again (im assuming it moves it back into its original position)...

Hey you don't have that ghey electric front spoiler do you?? I think it 'deploys' at 100kmh and would retract below that.

Should also be a button on the dash to do it manually (left side of the steering column)

the front spoiler is kool :P mine goes down at 80km/h though :O

It could be your concious telling you to slow down!

Hehe. Seriously, it could be lots of things, my aircon did the same thing till I got the shits and cut the belt. Also my mate found it was a bearing in the power steering pump that made a noise at mid RPMs. It could be lots of things, just keep an eye (or ear) on it and if it gets worse take it to a TRUSTED mechnic shop to get it checked out.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
