hey guys, i have recently purchase some rims from a member on here. its 18" buddy club p1 racing. Well the problem is, i have some cheap tyres on atm until thursday when i get new tyres, when i drive there is a constant loud noise coming from the wheels. It sounds like i have an exhaust installed. LOUD and it rumbles the car.

could this be the tyres? the tyres itself is very bumpy.. the treads are rough.

thanks

My V35 has VERY bad road noise depending what tyres are on the car. I got rid of some Bridgestones because I couldn't put up with the noise. My feeling is that V35s do not have very good (if any) sound deadening in the floor. I intend to buy some Dynamat style padding and pull out the seats/carpets and put much more deadening in. If you are interested in doing this to your V35 too PM me and I will get you in on my buy of the Dynamat style product from the USA when I order it in coming months.

if they are cheap and directional thats the problem, does the steering wheel vibrate at high speed yet?

once they start to wear bad they will make noise, then shake the steering wheel at high speed, then when they are bad enough it will vibrate at any speed.

hey guys, thanks for the replies. Well the noise produced by the tyres are beyond normal. When i had the stock rims wrapped in bridgestones it was silent (well much better then now).

however, i will be putting some toyo tyres on tomorrow, and we'll see how it goes. ill let u guys know.

thanks

they were my rims! nothing is wrong with the rims it's the tyres! you can't expect too much when i've thrown in free tyres buddy! and they are pretty shaggered anyway and they are uni directional

btw make sure you make the right tyre choice! some tyres are more noiser than others

I get shocking road noise from the R1R's until they're warm.

I just limiter bash the car to take away the tyre noise. Works like a charm.

i find that the R1R's on my GTR are fairly quiet, i dont hear the tyres over my exhaust and the exhaust isnt overly loud.

even pushing hard around corners they wont make noise, they might make a slight noise when the car slides but nowhere near as loud as the last tires i had on before. Nankang and Marshall's

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!

      That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect

      It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
