RX-747

I am actually highly considering this as the problem now because it does only happen when the driveline is under load, it wont happen under light load for example light acceleration but under hard acceleration it will squeal/scream and it will only make the noise at high rpm so it has got me thinking about the drive shaft.. ill check it out later today I don't think its the diff as it sounds like its directly next to me and no it doesnt happen on overrun it only happens during moderate to hard acceleration and at highish rpm.. all i can say though is the noise is loud as anything, if i overtake a tram or car you can hear squealing/screaming noise echoing loudly off it..

I just don't know what it could be otherwise, it made a similar noise before i put the new box in and when i put this new box in i used brand new ARP flywheel bolts, thrust bearing, clutch and got the flywheel machined in an attempt to eliminate the problem.. I didnt get the spigot replaced even though i supplied him with one because he said the one in there was in really good condition anyway because my motor was only rebuilt about 10,000-15,000km ago.. I can't replicate the noise when the car is not in gear and free revving, it will only make the noise when the car is in gear and under moderate to hard acceleration or high RPM and when it makes the noise it sounds like its coming from next to me (the gearbox).. The noise is a really really loud screaming/screeching noise and only occurs under the conditions as i mentioned before and its driving me absolutely crazy.. Aggggghhhhh!!!

WGMG: gearbox bearings shit itself so i bought one second hand and asked the seller numerous time if it had any bearing whine and he said no except for that 4th is a bit iffy, i said that i could live with 4th being shit as long as it doesnt whine and he said it was all good.. bought the box about a month ago havnt had a chance to put it in until today, got a local workshop to do it as i don't have access to a hoist so it cost me $350 to do the changeover because i supplied everything and used castrol multitrax which is a decent gearbox oil.. after the changeover gets done i drive it and 20 seconds later the same bearing whine seriously, WTF i don't have money to just throw at shit that doesnt work especially when someone lies to your face, grrrrr its so frustrating.. i hate my car nothing ever seems to turn out as planned..

Mine was the white corolla with a 4age in it running twin carbs, had a hand ring on the back too..

Ill be at this most likely :)

Was a really good day, met heaps of awesome people too :) .. Really good photos from the day also, thanks jimi you got a pic of my corolla as i was driving off :cool: needs more low though :P ... How did it sound? ive always wanted to hear my car from the outside haha

If i can haul my ass out of bed early enough ill be taking the rolla to this :)

I havnt updated for a while but the car is on the road again (temp panels).. Insurance is still getting sorted so car really hasnt changed.. I had mixed feeling after the accident happened, but once i chucked the panels on and took it for a spin, i once again fell in love.. I'm not giving up with it but if anything ill say one thing.... Do it again only better... Alot better ;) .. I will do a big update with pictures very very soon so stay tuned :P

Get some re001's in 14" before they discontinue them... I have a pair on the front and they are grippy as, i love them.. They are also pretty affordable too, i got mine for $120 each fitted and balanced :)

Nice pickup mate spirits are cool as, now drop a 4age in it :P haha... If you need spares let me know, because I'm getting rid of a few things..

BHG = Blown head gasket

Not saying the ssr's look bad on it they just look odd, somewhat out of place in that colour? Thats my opinion but maybe if they were black with chrome lip it might suit it a bit better.. On the other hand the xr6 wheels would look classier/nicer also running spacers is a con for the xr6 wheels..

I'm pretty keen so put me down :)

Welcome to rollaclub :) ... It sounds good for $250 mate, and yea post some pics up when you can... Just letting you know that if your dash lights have gone out then more than likely your tail lights are out too because they run on the same fuse. I had the same problem until people started flashing me at night then i looked at my tail lights and they were both out and only turned on when i started braking.. The fuse should be located where the drivers side kick panel is so check it out and see if you can find any dud fuses... Hope that helps mate

I reckon this thing dumped how it looks now and it will be the best cruiser.. Good job with the hub caps they come up awesome :)
