I've got a rattle in the passenger side rear end , sounds like a blown shocky or loose rear strut , but it aint , because I've got new rear struts and I changed them myself and I know they aint loose.

It dosen't do it all the time but I can bring it on by giving it a bit if boot on a sharp lefthander as long as there is a bump in the road on the corner--you would be amazed at how many corners do have a bump in them.--or maybe not. :P

I've jacked up the back at both sides and can't get anything wobbling when tugged or bushes hanging out or obviously fraked.

Any ideas anyone ???

Oh yup ita an R34GTT.

after I up-specced my sway bar and exhaust I had the zaust swinging a little when turning and/or on a bumpy surface, so I got the occasional tap between the two. Solved the problem by getting some hi-temp silicon (rad pipe would do) and zippy tieing it on so that any clang is minimized... :P

try you'r zaust and bash it around next time it's up... see if that makes a noise....

Zorst AAAAAAAAARRRRGGGGGGGH :blink: gotta big oval 3.5" in and out Varex at the end of my system -culprit---I'm bettin' it is. Thanks mate.

KeeperPosted Yesterday, 05:50 PM checked the subframe mounting bushings??? look for crap dripping out of the front ones, looks like jelly.

Thanks for that-just checked and still dry as- no aeroplane atall- good call though I'll keep an eye on them as the front castor rods sprang a jelly not long ago so as the rear subby's are jelly too {which I didn't know)they may be going to follow suite :cool: .

    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
