Just don't want to see you get stung .

I am considering a GTR as my next car too, but anything that hasn't had a rebuild I am automatically factoring that into my budget as a future cost. I see it as a question if 'when' not 'if'.

If you're not able to diagnose it - paying for someone who knows their stuff to give it a once over could be a wise investment.

Yer if I choose to accept the challenge of the car I will be factoring in the rebuild, hence why I haven't bought it yet, and will be taking it to a specialist to diagnose the noise, so far have came up trumps with a video, they all really need the car to sort it out correctly.

Maybe ask the owner if you can bring someone out to the car and remove the cam gear/timing cover?

Would be an easy way to check for rubbing, belt condition and deflection.

There would surely be a member in your area who would do it on a Sunday arvo for a slab.

That noise sounds like what my car does but worse, mine has 180k's , new belt and no cover so be interested to know what causes the noise,

any pics of the car?

Will upload pics tomorrow as busy today and not at home. Pics on phone are too large.

As per k's visually engine bay and noise is not reassuring but everything else looks mint... Under the dust.
