Dunno if it is the Thrust Bearing, as my mechanic told me that mine is stuffed and makes the hissing noise, but only when my foot is off the clutch. when my foot in on the clutch the noise is gone..

i bought my car with the noise with compliance...

Silva33 is right.. the thrust bearing will make a noise when your clutch is engaged (i.e foot off the clutch) That sounds more like a gearbox bearing dude.. :)

i have the exact problem it is a bearing on the input shaft or someshit like that my mechanic told me, hasnt had much affect on the cars driving up to now apart from the noise and whining, but if it gets worse then it will need fixing, and over time it will... mine is pretty loud so its gettin fixed soon...

cheers...ben.

To throw a spanner in the works: My 33 makes the same noise, did the clutch and bearing and it was still there. I gave my mech. a listen and he said 'that sound is the gearbox turning over when the clutch is out in neutral'. Sounds logical to me.

a little off topic... my thrust bearing makes the hissing noise (foot off the clutch)... can someone tell me what exactly the thrust bearing does so i can decide how urgent it is to replace...

cheers.

the thurust bearing is part of the clutch kit.. It is used to release the clutch pressure plate when you push the pedal down... You would normally replace it when you do your clutch

      To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear

      I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.

      No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.

      I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
