it's the turbo!

hmm

thats starting to sound like a possibility... wish i bought that warranty now...

its so wierd that it groans and resonates when under load and half throttle but under full throttle it kinda goes past it too fast to make the noise.

I doubt you'd like the warranty.. used car warrantys are a crock of shit really..

my friend had to replace his gearbox on his 180sx.. i could have got him one installed for around 600 including a reco box..

he ended up having to pay about the same.. on top of his warranty (which only covered a small amount). and couldnt get it done at a place he wanted..

As for my noise.. i am sure its only the ac.. seems to be fine with it off.. i am up to the 100,000 tho..

I tend to agree with Jetwreck here Wil. Sorry mate.

Better start saving up ~$2k for a GCG highflow (or a little more for a GT-RS) so the money is there when you need it!

Dunno if you are aware, but the OE turbo's were a factory replacement item at 100,000kms or earlier.

Pretty ridiculous I know, but that is what Nissan elected to do. Why they would not use a different design is beyond me.

in NSW by law they have to supply 3 months warranty with the car. im not sure if thats only if its registered. but check it out before you go buying a new turbo!

its so weird this problem just 'happened', it was perfect to drive!!

I'll check it out...not sure if the warranty is statewide. is a bit of a shame you didnt pick it up but its not that easy to replicate the noise so I totally understand. I doubt it will die any time soon but it's an annoying noise!

It's at Nissan right now, dont think they'll be able to figure it out...

Hmm High flow... Will a CGC high flow spool up earlier or later than the standard turbo?

I dont want it any laggier than stock.

Will it also mean I need to get it tuned so + $ for emanage or some other computer?

yeah look into it mate!

have a search around the stagea forum for people that have done this mod. i dont think youll find its laggier, if you do, it wont be by much

and no you can happily run it with the factory ECU. unless you want to start upping the boost and doing some mods, then a copgyback or a remap is probably worthwhile!

check everything made from - or attached to - rubber.

and the turbo

and the front drive shaft

and the tailshaft and mid mounted bearing

also wheel bearings

that should do it :)

    • thanks for heads up on actuators - will sort something as back up or solution as yes dont need that have enough trouble but no doubt some addition of something to spares boxes is required yes have a clue about WTAC but nothing has been officially put out yet so will wait to see exact details Pro class is, has been and will become a draw card for lap records and one off builds for show and thats about it I think - be interesting to see how open they make it Pro am is the old Pro in reality Open class will be split into 2 with slicks and 050's with no doubt slight variances in allowable drivers and changes in aero Clubsprint + apparently a true street class   They have to and are refreshing it all and bringing things up to current standards and need to 100% adhere to rules because whether people like it or not / or say it or not - for alot of competitors it is sheep stations and has been for a while when Im getting told I was illegal because i cut my rear bumper too high and yet others where in the grey areas of legality with everything from engines, suspension, ride heights and more serious influences it actually got quite out of control and heated this year so as much as I may be impacted by some of the changes and prob spit the dummy when I have to spend money changing things I think its a good thing for all
    • I can’t tell if it’s suspension related or maybe wheel bearing or motor mount.  IMG_6209.MOV
    • Start with a multimeter, and see if you're getting power at the TPS. There should be a manual for your car somewhere on these forums and it'll have the info for what closed TPS signal voltage is, and how it should sweep to full throttle. Same as for other sensors / valves.   Have you checked things like your base timing etc? See if anything looks amiss there too?
    • here are 2x options to consider: https://www.selby.com.au/price-promise/tonewinner-sw-d6000-subwoofer.html https://www.apollohifi.com.au/svs-pb-3000-ported-subwoofer-black-ash-pre-order.html I'm waiting for a good BF/CM sale and will pull the trigger on a new sub, I do like the SVS PB-3000 (13") but you could nearly buy 2x Tonewinner D6000s (15")
