Orrrf Exhaust Leek?

[HEKT1C]

i was driving one night giveing my car (r33 gtst SII) a bit of a boot, and a high pitched spooling noise came up when i was passing over 5krpm, then a couple days later was cruising around with music up didnt notice untill i got home to turn the music down my car sounded like a tractor... what would the problem most likely be? snaped manifold studs, turbo gasket? help? lol.. this hapend while back cars been sitting in drive way due to 6 months loss of licence im going to get my dad to drive my car to mechanics some time soon but i dont want to go there not knowing how much money ill need or hell crack the shits lol

Leaking manifold --> turbo gasket, and probably a broken stud or two.

If its manifold & studs, around $700-$800 as its turbo off, and you need to replace every stud at once or its likely to happen again.

Heaps of threads on this already, pretty common issue

Full seeek...

$100/hour labor to start with. Search the forum regarding exhaust leak, and possibly you can find the leak yourself, or at least direct the mechanic to it.

EDIT: When will i ever learn to refresh a page...
