Whine Noise - question
Upon taking off, there is a whine noise coming from the Type R.
It doesn't sound like it is from the motor but rather transmission. It goes away after about 3k rpms - if I"m cruising 50 or so, it goes away.
Car has an aftermarket clutch/flywheel setup .
You can hear it from outside of the car - what could this be?

Re: Whine Noise - question
Is it possible that you're confusing "whining" with a "whir" type of noise. I've seen several ITR's make similar noises caused by worn input shaft bearings. Anyway, this might help narrow it down a bit:
If you're not a woman, get the car moving about 10-15mph in 1st gear, push the clutch pedal all the way in, and kill the ignition letting the car roll with the engine off and trans in gear. Do you still hear the same noise?

Re: Whine Noise - question
Like what Quick99SI said above....do you hear the noise all the time or only when in gear? If you were to push in the clutch does the noise go away? If its the input shaft it should go away when you depress the clutch.
Otherwise my guess would be wheel bearings.

Re: Whine Noise - question
Wheels bearings will usually make more of a pulsating noise like in this video
