I've spoken to a mechanic/importer who deals with a lot of GTRs. He wasn't sure about where exactly the noise is coming from, but said this is very common in GTRs (and the 260RS) and it's nothing to worry about. I've recently driven a second 260RS (stock engine and exhaust) with an aftermarket clutch and it did not make the noise. So it could indeed be coming from the clutch/flywheel area as suggested above. If I push the clutch once the noise comes on it does go away.

Same thing here . . . Recently purchased a Stagea 260RS and noticed the same noise described above. This is the first RB26 I've owned or driven, so I cannot compare to much. Like @tranman said, the car sounds like it's struggling, but feels fine. And indeed the noise does sound like it's coming from the front/passenger side. Anyone ever find out what the cause is?
