My gtr does it and it is a pig of a job to do!!

I ain't tacking it that's for sure!!

to the op- there is a thread in the DIY section about a temporary solution to get the clutch dust out and quieten it down.

to Z1LLA- bring it round on a weekend and we can take it out and ill strip the starter down and give it a birthday. pref a sat morning incase we need to go get new brushes etc

Argh, I've got the same issue. I've pulled it out a few times and cleaned it out which seems to work well for a while, but eventually it comes back again.

The starater motor gear / flywheel ring gear on the bnr34 appears to be different to all other r32 - r34 skylines, I guess due to the dual mass flywheel, so you can't just pick up a spare easily and bolt it on either :(

Just got a quote from Ni$$an for a new unit; $1585 and a week or so wait from Japan.. I've got a feeling the bearing may be shot, I think I may pull it apart this weekend and try replacing it.

wow $1585 for a new starter motor, i just got mine done on Wed had it refurbished (re-grease + new brushes etc...) plus a 12 month warranty on the job/parts replaced only cost $209.00 (labour for removal/refit included). have you re-conditioned your one or did you just add grease to it? may be you could have a auto elect have a look at it next time you take it out.

but only time will tell with my one if the screeeeeech comes back or not.
