  1. I'm almost at a point where I feel like changing the alternator. Need to check the stuff you mentioned first though.
  2. Funny thing is when i flexed the belt it seemed like it had the same tension as before. Like I didn't tighten anything lol. Will start the car again tommorow and see what happens
  3. Will do. Suprised if it's not the starter motor considering it's 30 years old. Will get a volt meter though. Battery is close to new. Cheers for your help, always appreciated.
  4. I just checked my belt, it wasn't super loose but I could bend it past 90 degrees a small amount so I tightened it up and for the first time ever my car didn't crank first time, had to crank it again lol. Don't know if that was because I tightened the belt or if it's my starter motor going out (been having slow starts for some time). Coulda also been when I was recording I didn't crank the key properly and it didn't save the recording lol. Is that a thing if you overtighten a belt it struggles to start?
  5. Which grit sand paper did you use on the pulley btw? Thought I'd ask so I don't scratch it up too much
  6. Did that last time and it was squealing like mad lol. But my belt was loose at the time. I'll check the tension tomorrow, think I checked it a couple of months ago and was fine.
  7. Gosh these Rb pulleys/alternator or whatever is causing the problem is absolute rubbish lol. Haven't even done that many km on it.
  8. I've seen these as well https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/395822887806?chn=ps&_ul=AU&mkevt=1&mkcid=28&google_free_listing_action=view_item&srsltid=AfmBOooak9PFJJwwNDusr8TrZ5lsminTjComhJr-Z4dJ52Tt35T1hBPl0wk&gQT=1 but always seemed a bit dodgy lol
  9. Does anyone find that they have to tighten their alternator belt once in a while? Mine started squealing again.
  10. Ah right. I got a new o2 sensor because the last owner disabled it (probably because it was dead and didn't want to buy a new one), here goes potentially for a new o2 sensor again lol.
  11. From what I understand, it's a ceramic turbine and a plastic compressor (not sure how it doesn't melt then lol) I heard the series 2 r34 gtt has a metal turbine but I doubt that. @GTSBoy When you blew your standard neo turbo it didn't cause damage from memory just the turbine ended up in the cat?
  12. Is that just in the context of a gtr and not a gtt because twin turbo vs single turbo?
  13. Is the A/C compressor supposed to keep kicking in and the revs go up every so often as a result? (for a r34 gtt) Mine turns on roughly every 15-20 seconds if I remember correctly. I know on my other car it doesn't seem to do that but different car I guess. I've had my car re-gassed and it still blows ice cold air after well over a year but have always had this happening.
  14. Do you have a recording of what it sounded like at startup? Just curious to know what it sounds like.
  15. Yep mine is more or less the exact same as yours.
  16. Yeah was gonna say as it wouldn't line up correctly, I imagine if they put the wheel that way it would mess with the wheel alignment.
  17. Ah ok, interesting.
  18. Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
  19. Interesting. Some of them were tight to lol
  20. is it common on RB25det motors that the exhaust manifold nuts become loose overtime? I was inspecting some stuff and noticed that a couple of nuts were so loose that I could literally turn it by hand. Everything is stock on exhaust side unless when they installed the dump pipe they had to remove the manifold for whatever reason. I'm surprised the boost leak didn't show up on the test lol.
  21. Ah right, cheers!
  22. Ah right, cheers for that!
  23. I read on YouTube that the neo has 2 bleeder valves? Can't see anything in the manual though
  24. Ah ok. I put in a new radiator previously and flushed the coolant out at the same time but it is getting to that 2 year mark. My car is pretty much a daily driver in a sense but haven't put heaps of km on it.
