Hey everyone got couple issues with the gtr ATM

First : when I drive straight and turn left there sounds like somthing is out of place or the budging in the sway bar is gone but when I turn right there's no sound at all?

Havnt taking it to the mechanic but I'd thought I'd try here first can get a video in the next day or two

Second : vibration

Only when I rev between 1100rpm - 1190rpm there is a mild vibration coming through the steering wheel and door trims I thought it was engine mount but when I looked under the bonnet and reved it a little bit the motor wasn't moving much :)

Only happins between those reves so bit confused

Cheers !!!

its just harmonics at those revs, do you have stock engine mounts? if not then this will add to the vibrations.

the knock is harder, jack it up safely and check every nut and bolts, and check out the bushes while your under there

I just bought the car from the auctions cheap as chips couldn't go for a test drive

But for the price I got it for i didn't really care if there was any problems

Any wear percific or just the bushings on the sway

Cheers

      High temp brake fluid?

      Interesting....can't say I've ever checked it, have always just changed it in the off season as practice

      Just checking, when we are talking about high temp fluid, are we all referring to DOT 5.1? I haven't had any issues with changing it every 2-3 years.

      Yeah that is still true AFAIK.....good brake fluid should be changed annually because it absorbs water faster which is more often than most mechanics would do it. There are cheap tools that check water% in brake fluid if you all scientific about it. I for sure would (do) run good brake fluid in anything that even casually saw the track like Murray said; avoiding the risk of "exciting" fade is worth it

      Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.

      Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.
