"dude", if you aren't interested in buying something,don't post. Don't be a pain in the arse for everyone else.

No offence intended.

cheers,

floody

Guys, seriously, enough of this crap!

The seller sets the price, he also has the right to change that price to WHATEVER he sees fit, if your not interested in buying it then don't bother replying, or if you think the price is too unreasonable, then you may wish to PM him, if you are looking at buying things that you think are a little on the high side, again, make an offer through PM's!

This sort of crap (people calling people idiots etc..) shouldn't be here.. please guys do the right thing!

and deano, if you don't have anything to say, stay out of it :)

yeah well flood

i dont give shit

i got a nice message saying thanks cause he did want more and now he knows of caraudioaustralia.com hes gonna sell all his stereo gear and get what he wants for it

i just hate freeloaders sayin ooh give ya 100 bucks for something thats worth 500

its called dreaming

and your a dreamer

so get a real skyline if u can AFFORD it

just had this much and thought id give it a go

heh

to be honest, it didn't go well at all. it most probably got damaged in the postal system (although i packed it up really, really good with heaps of bubble wrap) and the cd is skipping. getting it sent back to me with a full refund. but it's cool, i'm not the kind of person that would sell something dodgy anyway.

probably hook it up to my cd changer and use the deck as an equalizer...plus it does look quite flash :)

maybe yr buyer could get it checked out by an audio store as it could be something real simple?

have had dirty heads in my alpine deck bfore and cd skips erratically...

=)

    • Have you put an aftermarket oil pressure gauge on and verified your oil pressure?   Noise being on the block, on exhaust side, how high up the block does it seem to be? It could be the VCT system getting cranky, especially if it's mainly at idle, and when warm, as that'll be your lowest point for oil pressure. Could be showing that oil passages / VCT solenoid are blocking.
    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?
