    Loud wind noise

    Notice a loud wind noise while car is moving. While accelerating the noise become louder but is still present while deccelerating. I opened the hood and pulled the throttle body wire to rev the car and it seem to come from the front. Could it be a loose/crooked fan? Any help would be appricated.

    Like a whining sound? From the belts in front? Not sure what you mean by wind sound..

    not the turbo , I do hear it but the sound is greater. Its not a whining sound but something similar to wind. My p/s strap seem to be badly ajusted. Might be the problem, making the fan slip or something.

    U mean it kinda sounds like a dump truck? If so it's your clutch fan and do not drive the engine hard with it like this, same thing happened on my old r32 gtst and it ended up grenading (sounded like a gun shot) and left me with the lower rad hose cut in half and huge hole through my rad and an massive dent in my hood, not to mention it took out the hood lining while it was at it. And it's super easy to fix just drain the rad take the rad out and it comes off by 4 small bolts.

    A fellow skyline user told me the same thing. Yesterday the fan did ''unstuck'' but I wont wait till everything blow out. Did you change your fan or ''clean'' it ?
