Interesting. Try to record the noise if possible? It may very well be the Direct Injection. A lot have mistaken it for knock because of how loud the system is at low rpm.

I love this engine though. Very hard to believe the previous gen BRZ / GT86 engines are related. This unit is a screamer, and it pulls hard all the way to 7.5k RPM. It feels to be pulling harder as the RPMs rise. Without the RPM limiter set, I was constantly hitting the redline. It felt this engine had more to give above 7.5k rpm. |

From the GR86 owners manual: "unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 (95 RON) may be used with no detriment to engine durability or driveability. However, you may notice a slight decrease in maximum engine performance and you may hear some knocking (pinging) of an engine while using an octane rating of 91 (95 RON) fuel." |

The only issue I'm facing is a rattling noise somewhere in the dash, but it happens randomly.

BTW- Petah, I like your previous cars. I also had a 92 with full GSR swap. One of the most fun cars i've ever experienced. Got a build thread for your s2k? |

No build thread, the AP1 is a very mild car, relatively stock. All i have i have done are wheels and suspension. I have owned it for 12 years and its more of a weekend/sunny car. However, i am thinking of adding more goodies over the winter now that the kids are older. haha.

Maybe, but not convinced. While normal driving my glovebox squeaks. It's hard to replicate but when it becomes noticeable I just press on it and it stops for a while. If you open the glovebox there are little tabs wrapped with tape/insulation foam from factory. They know this is a source of noise...

It doesn't, I have mine disconnected and tied down, and the connector head is wrapped. Not sure what it could be as it's really random.

I used to set an alert on the knock channels on the OFT and it almost always detects a bit of knock if you floor it at less than around 3500rpm unless you are on e85. If you do it a lot, then the IAM will drop below 1.0, pulling timing across the whole rev range which reduces your power. It takes a bit of knock free driving to bring it back up to 1.0. So it's best to downshift if you need to pick up some speed if you aren't in the powerband. |
