Hey guys,

Hope someone can help with a noise that's recently started up... Sort of a "zzzzz" noise, seems to be in second and third gears mostly (maybe just can't hear it at higher speed), but I think I've heard it in 1st before as well. Was thinking turbo, as odo reads 216000km and I've had it since 14000 without replacing it. No oil in the inlet pipes however... Definately seems to be coming from under the bonnet as I can't hear it with the windows up. Doesn't do it free reving. Seems to do it only when warmed up. When it starts making the noise, it goes away immediately as I accelerate.... haven't been booting it too hard since it started though... Please, has anyone got any ideas or tests I could carry out (short of removing the turbo, yet).... :(

Ive got the same noise In my GTR and had it on my gts-t. The noise comes from the gearbox and ive just put it down to my rattly old twin plate

you only get it at low engine speeds right?

Only prob is I don't have a twin plate... stock rb20det with unknown clutch... been in for the 75000km I've owned the car. I thought it might have been the gearbox too, but I can hear the box throught the trans tunnel and it doesn't seem to be coming from there... tried some nulon g70 in it to see if it would help but no change... only started less than 1000ks ago...

      So i brought a boat...

      wow so i just logged back in after buying the 33 and joining SAU, And I've got all a whole bunch of you wanting to know more, well unfortunately it still doesn't run i was hoping it was seized from a snapped timing belt as i turned it over by hand and it was fine and then it did a few revolutions and jammed solid when i was running it with the key, so the timing belt is mint, I've also found a lot of the parts I'm removing have already got bolts undone or not quiet tight enough to be unsuspicious. so the plan is to find a running RB30 block and chuck my head on it.  I have a habit of buying stuff I don't need or require so for my none running engine i have a forward facing plenum , Apexi power fc, 40mm Turbosmart wastegate, And for the car its self coilovers ,low seat rails and BRZ seats (black seats with red stitching i already had these and they are ADR Approved and allow rear passengers access)

      I took apart the dash and found this strange 2 pin connector. it dosen't seem like its factory or oem, any clue on why someone would add it and where it might have been connected too?

      Not mention a SS2 especially with that rear oddly small rear housing. I feel the Facebook mechanics and experts has led OP in the wrong direction.

      Won't get near 400kw, pump and injectors nowhere big enough. Bin the manifold and get off the shelf and a modern ECU.
