Weird sound from the engine
 
https://vimeo.com/316415932

I've got a weird sound coming from my jdm hawkeye sti

Not sure if it knocking or it's timing belt related

Any idea what it could be,sounds like it's coming from near the turbo

Thanks

Thats very unlucky mate but that doesn't sound good

Doesn't sound good but check spark plugs are tight.

If engine gone get An engine put it in then get it serviced and mapped as it was suppose to wen landed

if having trouble finding a d3cent engine I have a freind in bury who has a few jdm units that are ready to drop in and go very fairly priced and he can send it out aswell

hope you get it sorted yaar sorry to hear :thumb:

because they're a tw@t to fit,seems a common(ish) problem.

i find them pretty easy to be honest
use the right tools and no shortcuts
I’ve not come across this type of problem before a loose spark plug but I guess we learn sumat new everyday bum mechanics imo

seems it’s had bad workmanship

wouldn’t l8ke to think how the rest of the vehicle has been maintained and worked on in its life even if it is a “fresh” import but that’s just my opinion and thinking
