Yeah, yeah...

Try unplugging your VTC solenoid, it's the red plug right next to the throttle body coming out of the head.

I'll give that a try and get back to you. I think I did that once while it was running and it just died... can't remember

It shouldn't have just died. That just controls the VTC oil flow. It activates just off idle and switches off at 5200rpms. I just wanted to see if it made a change to the noise.

I'm really fond of my S14 but your car looks pretty sweet.Same color too. You should be able to narrow it down by finding which area its coming from. Sometimes youn can hear better underneath without fan and other noise. Has it always done it or just recently after changing or replacing something.

Thanks man. I plan on doing a s15 front end conversion with widebody panels all around. I like the color but not fond of the front end.

As for the sound. Has it always done that? To be honest.. I am not sure. I only just recently noticed it. I have not had the car running for the longest time. Only since the end of last summer. Now I am trying to fix all of the bugs. I don't have a consult port, so I find it hard to find engine problems.

OK so I unplugged the VTC solenoid and started it up. It idled like shit just so you know. It was kinda loud. I didn't notice the clicking (maybe cause the idle was loud from other stuff). I plugged it back in and cranked it over. heard the noise again. So I guess its the solenoid.

I was doing a little research and found this thread. Just so you know, my neutral position switch is not hooked up. I don't see how this could relate to the vct?? so the clicking noise is the solenoid actuating/de-actuating really fast?
