Hi all, my gtr has been on the road a month now, the kit is at least 6 years old, and it's been a rolling chassis for 5 years, I love it!! The power, noise, drama, brakes, everything I want in a specialist car, the only dislike I have is the constant, loud, creaking noise, I know it's a self build super car, but the noise is so loud you can't hear the exhaust!! It's coming from the suspension, just jacking the car up makes the same din, or rolling gently into the garage. Is it just a case of dismantling the suspension and lubing everything ( can you even do that to the bushes ) or is it a specific joint?

Cheers for that Tony, the bushes on mine can't be worn but they must have dried out over time.

Good advise, I'll lube one corner at a time, pinpoint the problem, if it's persistant, consider nipples. Cheers.
