Ok guys and girls its time to play " whats that noise?! " :)

K, when my GTS hits 2500rpm i get a really horrible noise coming from the exhaust which lasts to about 3000rpm.

Its like a vibrating note and sounds like shit.

Just wondering if its my Catalytic Converter, Muffler, Natural resonance or me???

assuming you have a stock exhaust, One with the twin head on it???

Have a look down the righthand side and you should see a flap over the hole, blocking it..

Like this... ex2.jpg

I believe the cable you can see in the next photo opens the hole when the pressure builds up or the car reaches a certain rpm!! This could be the cause of your noise! I find mine gets louder around the same time!

There is a cable on the upper right hand side that opens this flap!ex1.jpg

Just a thought!!!!

I know what you mean, its like a flapping, cracking noise from about 2500-3000, i think its a N/A thing, i got a barrel muffler put on and it just mad it louder sounds kinda cool like you got some funky mods or something, after a while when the engine heats up after 10mins or so it seems to die down a little bit. I can never work out what the noise is, i heard the cams do it aswell.........

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
    • Bringing an old thread back to life Looking to put some new front shocks in the r33Gtst and the KYB still look ok for a road car. Unless there are any other options aroind that price $200 a shock?  I’d like to replace the strut tops also, is this the correct KYB no. For the strut top, KSM7124?  https://www.sparesbox.com.au/products/kyb-strut-top-mount-ksm7124?srsltid=AfmBOoq-HDru8wSlLnQrhU9gCw_uYdKg8gUQzONY-EQOdnI5iXOWEUjY 341287 appears to be the front KYB shocks part no.  thanks all
