Hey guys,

I'm having some problems with my r34 gt.

I just had a timing belt done and its been over three months and there is still nose coming from the belt area,I have no idea what it is or how to fix it.

If anyone from vic can help me,i'll be really great full.

cheers.

More info needed. Is it a Gates racing belt (blue) etc. Did the mechanic/workshop who did the work, actually work on RBs?

Gates, hks, greddy all made from same company gates

The kevlar belt sounds horrible because the mech didnt tension the belt with a warm engine now its too tight warmed up

My did the same thing and gates usa told me to retension with warm block , fixed now

sounds like its rubbing or a tight rubberband

Hi

Had mine done as well 2 years ago but could the noise your talking about be from the water pump belt as if they did a good job

they would put a new water pump on it as well and this belt would need tightening after a week or 2 ??

Good luck

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 馃槩

    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
