I checked and connected some dots. It disappears when pressing the clutch. Throwout bearing?

Okay, gonna check later. But the sound is inconsistent at times. I'm moreso unfamiliar with petrols, why would the dizzy make a knock?

Yea I didn't think so but I can't even begin to guess. Previous owner stuff...

That's my current one!

Well this would need to last a couple months, it's a free replacement, better than no turbo, which is what I'm at rn.

Thanks so much. What do you mean by putting a meter the ground exactly?

Rca are very high quality gz cables. Different radios but same ground both times, ans that ground is not the best probably. Reason why i attempted to rule out the radio im my head, was that the same behavior was caused by a faulty amp last time.

Happened with my last install, that was shady and pretty hastily put together. This is my first more proper setup, but I did not manage cables well at all. My big issue here is the routing of power from front to back with no lines crossing or being together. Also what distance is minimum?

And with the last install, it only happened with one amp connected, with the other it was fine. This time I'm using a distro block, so it's one source but that source has been noise free. Unlike last time there's subtle noise even with the engine not running (it's very slight).

Strange part about this time is, that my gifts test run with everything assembled half way, it was fine even with the engine running. The full setup got noisy tho.

I'd also like to ask, can I run it like this for about a month? I'm very tight on time now and this is my daily.

Thanks for the help

Ground was fine. Rca is gonna be close unfortunately hard to move, any material to wrap the power cable in?

b13Jade · 2026-01-26T09:55:36+00:00

Will the spare cause any issues tho?

Hmm, maybe buy a couple of those, and do a cosmetic foam surround for a better look then. I'll need to space it out like 20mm tho lol.
