Neo Rb25 Engine Sounds?

[brizzi]

Hi people, just a stupid question.... What is a 34gtt engine supose to sound like? idle etc..

Havent ever heard another one except my engine are lifters suppose to be constantly noisy?

[choyda]

I've found my engine to sound a little quieter than the R33 RB25's in general. Are you able to post a sound at all?

i still got a stocki and i swear its the quitest jap car ive herd....maybe cuz i aint got no muffler yet lol

Is the sound a very quick ticking noise?

From what i gathered NEO engines are meant to be quieter but the noise your cams/valve train make can also indicate the condition of the engine.

anyone feel free to correct me if im wrong.

They sound like an R33 RB25 except because they have solid lifters like an RB26 they make a bit of noise at the top of the engine.

Mine does the same as well.

Thanx fellas! Just this r32 i bought has had afew little probs with it but not the motor thankfully. I had another r32 with a series 1 r33 25 in it. The neo is the better motor it goes better on less boost and is lots smoother! Only thing is it only really starts pulling bout 4 thousand revs then it pulls really well lots of wheel spin! he he he mad fun!

Thanx everyone! Nice cars you all have too! That r31 is a mad sleeper! I had one with a 25 in it too pretty damn wild to drive he he he thats if ya can keep the diffs up to it! I broke a few! Smashed a silhouette one to pieces,the auto one held up the best!

oh oh!!! lifters!! i had a chat to my mate/mechanic... told him my car is a bit noisy up around 2000rpm+ (any gear) - he said sounded fine, sounds like the lifters....

"very quick ticking noise" - i think i know what you mean... i like to think of it as a WRX grumble (nice sounding boxer note) but sped up and higher pitch - but yeah, quick ticking noise..

so this is normal for a NEO RB25 then??? - if so, the NGK iridiums were probably a bit of a waste of money then
