Templim Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Do you know why when I turn the wheel all the way left or right no matter the speed for a turn I hear a grinding sound? It sounds like the driveshaft, I'm not sure though. I just did a power steering flush and that didn't fix it. There are only 3 of the 4 bolts on it. Maybe that's why? 🤷🏻♂️ It only makes the noise right when I get to the end of steering for both right and left sides.

tridentt150v Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 is this 'on the road' or on blocks in the garage? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/484117-r33-gtst-grinding-noise-when-i-hard-turn/#findComment-7971081 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on the road and when I pull out of my driveway. If I just turn the steering wheel all the way left and right when the car is parked it doesn't make the sound.

tridentt150v Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Sounds more like your tyres are rubbing on the inner guards? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/484117-r33-gtst-grinding-noise-when-i-hard-turn/#findComment-7971085 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTSBoy Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Which could point to thrashed radius rod bushes, or thrashed lower arm inner bushes, or maybe thrashed balljoint/kingpin bearings (less likely) or a bent/shifted subframe (drift damage).

The car was fine before I swapped my trans. There may been some issues that I made with the power steering pump. I'll check what you guys have said.

I put spacers on and it's fine now. 2 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/484117-r33-gtst-grinding-noise-when-i-hard-turn/#findComment-7971422 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 tridentt150v wins the guessing game Right sized wheels might be a better solution than spacers, but at least you've got it sorted.... 2 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/484117-r33-gtst-grinding-noise-when-i-hard-turn/#findComment-7971426 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have these. I saw on fitment industries and people are running the same specs though. https://www.fitmentindustries.com/buy-wheel-offset/476-895-6530BK/enkei-kojin-18x95-30?vehicle_type=Car&year=1996&make=Nissan&model=Skyline&trim=GTS25T&suspension=Stock Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/484117-r33-gtst-grinding-noise-when-i-hard-turn/#findComment-7971594 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTSBoy Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 A 9.5 would absolutely need a lower offset than +30. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/484117-r33-gtst-grinding-noise-when-i-hard-turn/#findComment-7971655 Share on other sites More sharing options...
