Hey guys,

I got defected this week in my s15 silvia and I have had it for a total of 2 weeks :ermm: . The previous seller did not have the stock parts to give me either...

Anyway if anyone has a stock s15/s14 exhaust laying around they could sell me, or even lend me for two weeks (im willing to put a deposit down), I'd really appreciated! Getting desperate and worried about clearing it this week so if you know anyone with a silvia I would love the help.

Im located in the lower blue mountains and am willing to drive to pick it up.

Thanks,

Ben

if you are willing to pick up from woodcroft (blacktown area) i can ask my mate. He has a stock s15 exhaust laying around

If you could ask him that would be awesome mate, Im more than willing to drive and pick it up :banana:

ok just got off the phone to my mate. He has both stock exhaust and air box out of his s15.

He wants $250 each for them and when they are returned he will give you $200 back. He only wants to lend them out incase he ever gets defected

He lives in woodcroft, name is Tee and number is 0415705505

cheers

    • Have you put an aftermarket oil pressure gauge on and verified your oil pressure?   Noise being on the block, on exhaust side, how high up the block does it seem to be? It could be the VCT system getting cranky, especially if it's mainly at idle, and when warm, as that'll be your lowest point for oil pressure. Could be showing that oil passages / VCT solenoid are blocking.
    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?
