hey guys, i have this hissing noice comming from around my intake pleanum area, right near the injectors...

i have replaced or cheacked all my hoses comming off the plenum and i am 99% sure its not the plenum gasket.

i asked my mechanic what the go was and he said he has head it befor and its a not a gasket leak...he isnt 100% sure what it is but...he has heard it before....

anyway do you guys have or know this sound? its very faint, not loud like a proper air leak....and you can just hear it over the injectors ticking away...

i'm going to do a smoke test to see if i can see smokbeing sucked intot he engine somewhere....will let you know how i go...

yeah i have heard this noise since day 1 of owning the car and i have changed the injectors to new nismo ones...

are you talking about the large rubber seals that go between the injectors and the plenum or the actual injector seals...upeer and lower?

I had my issue from the day it left the boat in QLD.

...are you talking about the...

Yup, all and any. Spray everything, I used a whole can around my engine. My issue (car not mental) was compounded by a leak in the throttle body <-> plenum fit, as well as where the throttle plate spindle protrudes from throttle body (RB26)

Good luck

I've been wondering about that noise for some time now... I think it's just normal air sounds wooshing through the plenum or something? I have no car issues, no lag, no surging or anything... just that feint hissing noise.

Once, I didn't seal my catch-can properly after emptying it, and there was a VERY LOUD hissing noise afterwards (and the car barely idled, but that is too obvious).

    • Apologies, while id like to put the MAF as close to the TB and relocate the recirc, this may be too much work. Will most likely end up just putting it on the original AFM spot ( onto/next to the airbox ).  Was going through nistune, found a pretty nifty doc on this. Nistune MAF Notes. Also, i was looking through the bay, and there seems to be a tube/line connected from the A/C to the intercooler piping ( Between the smic and the recirc), what does this do as the crossover fmic piping doesnt have any connection? plumbing? not sure what you call it but the nipple thing ahah.  Also, been reading up more about crossover fmic in regards to the legality of having the hole drilled for the piping, this would most likely need to be engineered right?
    • My advice is if you need a big build done do it in Japan. The yen rate is so favorable and there are shops that can be genuinely trusted and not micromanaged/carefully monitored every step of the way. Garage Yoshida is obviously my preferred option but they're so busy these days and all interaction with new customers has to be mediated through BBL/Toprank now. 
    • I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body
    • Not stock. All remade. Mostly looks stock because the pipes run to and from the standard holes in the inner guard to get to the return flow FMIC. I'm not sure which question you're trying to ask, because it seems like "stock position" vs "stock position".
    • Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.
