Hey, I just bought an r33 gts type s. and yeah, when we got the car the guy said the belts only squeaked coz it was wet, obviously not. (how would these belts even get wet your washing the car? lol :( )

Drove the car back from bris to vic, and it would only squeak once every like 30 or so minutes... but now its squeaks like every time :) (only when aircon is on this happens) i can sit the car in neutral, and ease the throttle and between 2000-2500rmp it well have a squeak. but the worrieing thing about it is that it has like a rythm to it.. so it does its thing "eee e eee ee...(then pause)...ee ee" always has the last two "ee"

Have a general idea what it is (aircon :blush: ) but just wondering if from experiance with these cars you guys could shed more light issue and if it happened to you, how did you get it fixed?

Thanks Nick.

Can you apply some 'Rosin' to the belt and see if it stops immediately?

You can get some from a music store that sells violins.

If the noise stops, it's likely that the belt isn't seated correctly, or it was simply slipping > check tautness.

      The Ls1 R33 Of Fury

      Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
