Hi guys, Ive got a Jap Z which was converted from Auto to Manual over in Japan.. Its got a whining noise when going up through the gears and it sounds awsome, Even though it sounds good im just abit worried that their might be somekind of fault causing this noise. Ive had the car for a while now, and its been serviced numerous times at Zedworld and everything seems ok.

 

Any ideas as to whats causing the whine?

 

It sounds just like this:

Sounds more like diff whine to me? Does the pitch change when you change gear?

sounds more like sequntial :p fook me that 180 is quick

 

check the geargator under the gearstick etc normally a whiny noise is a loose or split lower gator, normally noticable in lower gears 1-3

 

or worst case bearings are on there way out :(

Aye that 180 is quick alright!!! I want!!!

fookkkkkk he got a sequential box in that thing!!!!!!!!

 

AWESOME :bow: :bow: :bow:

Yeah the pitch does change when changing gear mate. The faster you go, the higher the pitch.

The gaitor under the gearstick is fine mate. Weve had the car around 3 years and had it serviced everytime at Zed-world and Jeff has taken it out after a service for a test drive and has never mentioned it.
