R34 Gtt Weird Noise At Low Revs

Hey guys,

Lately I've noticed a strange noise/rattle coming from the front of the car at low revs, between 1-2k revs.

I noticed it awhile back on and off, but I just got the clutch replaced and I notice it alot more but it still doesn't do it all the time.

Example, slowing down for speed humps, 2nd gear just sitting around 10-20kms put the foot down to speed up again and the weird rattle noise appears but hit 2-3k revs and gone car sounds normal. Also does it taking off at lights sometimes aswell, does it through all gears if I let the revs drop to much without changing down gears.

Anyone know what it could be?

Cheers

It could be the thrust bearing, in which case it is common. Some Late model cars run plastic carriers for the bearings which quieten the noise, but they can melt when the bearing starts to get hot. Does the noise go away when you put your food on the clutch?

Could be best to get a mech or mate to have a listen, perhaps a local SAU member will put his hand up if you don't know someone?

Sorry Scotty, just missed your post.

Mine was very evident before I replaced my clutch.

New throwout bearing with clutch, new gearbox fluid (Nulon smooth shift). Noise quietened down, but still there.

Did you notice a change in the noise with the clutch change?

*edit* More noise with clutch change....

I only noticed it a handful of times before the clutch was replaced, not very often at all either. I got the clutch replaces along with a lightweight flywheel and new trans fluid on Monday and I've noticed it alot since, but it's the same noise as before it was replaced.

      Rb head oil drain dimensions

      By Papichulo96 · Posted

      Bump on this to not make another post, had a ‘head drain’ leak on me and have the engine out as we speak. Planning on just putting a new freeze plug back in , plug the tapped holes and just be done with that headache.    Now I still want to relieve pressure to allow oil to pass down the blocks returns easier. I’ve seen catch cans with multiple vents help folks with this issue on this forum.  I’m wanting to make my own. I have some pictures here of my setup if anyone can help how I should plumb and design the catch can I would deeply appreciate it !   rb25 Oil upgrades: 1.0mm restrictor n1 pump/billet gears extended crank collar  extended sump with trap doors/w welded fitting

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By Zabuza · Posted

      Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, your RB20 ECU loom won't have wires for the boost solenoid, that boost sensor, and possibly one or two other things. There could be differences in seemingly random things like the charcoal canister purge solenoid, because the 25DET has to handle boost in the vacuum system and the 20DE does not. I don't know - I haven't looked. It is very likely that all the most important things are same-same, being the main sensors like AFM, CAS, etc, and the injectors and ignition. Not that you'll need the AFM for the Haltech anyway. I would suggest that you would seriously want to sit down with the pinouts for both ECUs and just go through them and highlight green what is the same, orange what is different/missing, and make a plan from there. It's not going to be difficult. It will either be the same or need to be fixed.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      yeaaa that's why I haven't done any wiring to the stock ecu harness because I have the haltech, but then that leads me to the other question of "is the pnp harness really plug and play?" or would I have to still switch some pins/wires over because the pnp is for the rb25det neo harness, and not for the rb20de neo harness. was really hoping to find something to spoon feed me since so many people have done rb20neo + t conversions, but man this is rough.
