ok alot of people gave me a few replys about what the weird whistle was in my car but i though ill upload it and then they can watch it and hear it for them selfs i played with the trotle a bit u can hear it go wen i start to accelerate and the whistle dies down this sounds alot louder than it should be because when the bonnet is closed you obviously cant hear it as much.

Alot of people told me to take it back and i did when i noticed it and he told me they took the engine out and they could not find anything wrong and its not something i should be concerend about but i hate it and i want it to run quiet and smooth like alot of other GT-Rs so watch and give me your feed back.

ps. cars out of warenty now for the rebuild and he f**ked me over the last time i was there so going back is not an option!!!

Yeah from the vid it sounds like more of a squeak than a whistle, most probably what Karl said, poor water on your belts when its running see if it stops for a few seconds.

If it was a whistle noise I'd say it was your intake/induction pipes/exhaust/turbo. If it was a scrape noise like metal on metal inside the engine I'd be worried and taking it back to the rebuilder.

if your think its internal grab a big flat head screw driver, put the handle to your ear and the blade on various engine parts and see where it's coming from.

Good luck :P

mmmm funny you should say that about the belts because at the front i noticed one of the belts is worn on the the side and i looked down with a torch and it looks like it might be hitting a bolt for some reason ill try that water thing tonight and ill tell you what happens to it

Turbo seals etc were replaced not long back pretty sure its not them to me it sounds like its coming from the front but then i cant tell 100% because if you lean in it sounds like its coming from the plenum or like under it near the injectors.

thanks for your help ill keep you guys posted

I am not a guru,

But there sounded like a Knock in the background.....

I thought I could just hear it over the noise of the lifters.....

Possible other issues? Big End Bearing?

As well as Belts slipping

knock ? wtF? i just got it rebuilt car drives fine its peaking on the dyno and its not over boosted it runs fine does not miss a beat its just a noise and thanx for that gay little photo that really helps me mate thanks i dont need stupid immature comments like that im asking for peoples help if you don't want to help go make a thred about being a sad flamin mongrel!

I poured water on the belts its not that thanks guys for that advice but didn't work its coming from under the injectors im going with air leek the car runs 100% tho no problems at all

yea man mmmmmm i will take it just in the spraying process atm trying to get the Bit*ch on the Rd asap but i will take it to someone asap like the cars performance could not be any better i just have it in the back of my mind and a bit concerned about it ah wellz :( have not had much luck with the car and cant see that changing but ill take it to someone in next few weeks n see how i go thanks man

    • "CAD" version 1.0 It will have a 15mm lip around the top for 6 × 5 or 6mm nutserts and fixtures (two on each of the three straight edges), and some pinch weld on any exposed edges, it has three mounting points, one of the power steering reservoir bolts, and two on the rad support, my 120mm hole saw will make short work of hole for the silicone joiner, with ample room for some pinch weld  I've also got enough Carbuilders "peel and stick" heat shield to cover the outside of it at the coolant expansion tank and on the engine side, as pictured, and internally on the lid and where the fuse box is, I've also got some thin, about 3mm, black 3M single sided sticky foam stuff that was left over after sealing some door drafts at home to help seal the lid As for the shape, it "sort of" matches the shape of the fuse box, so shouldn't look to "out of place" The lower area and hole for the intake will need pinch weld with a balloon on it to fully seal the hole and bottom of it, that will happen after it has been fabricated so I know exactly what size is required  Filter service has been trialed,  and so far it was a simple process  Just need to get some alloy, and then head into work to use the guillotine and break press in the workshop Hopefully it should be sorted in a week or two Guestimated outlay will be under a $50 for the stuff I don't have on hand (alloy, 6mm nutserts, the pinch weld, and wrinkle paint) Disclaimer: That's what the "voices in my head" are telling me how the filter box should end up getting done......lets see if they know what they are talking about

    • Hey mate, the brown and grey plugs would usually go to the TPS, brown one goes on the bottom connector and grey is the top but isn't used unless the car is auto, your TPS looks different to mine though I've got a series 2 engine.
