Default 1992 Nissan 240sx R33 RB26DETT (running) SAY WHATTTTT?

Description:
Hey guys, I really don't get on this forum much (other to look at cars and such), but I figured you guys would like to see this!

Anyway, I bought an unfinished s13 coupe project from a local guy here in TN, which has an RB26DETT. Apparently the guy who had it really didn't know his way around wiring, and basically I had to rewire the whole car. Anyways, on to the details:

Engine:
RB26DETT (R33 with the longer crank collar)
RB25 trans (was opened up, inspected, and re-sealed, shifts 100% perfectly, smoothest trans i've ever had)
MINES ECU
NEW NISMO r33 gts-t clutch
R33 diff
Mckinney mounts (High $$$)
Mckinney downpipe (High $$$)
Custom FMIC
Blindside driveshaft
Innovate wideband
Coolant temp and boost gauge
Rebuilt (by me) z32 26mm Calipers
New brake master cylinder
Flushed all fluid
New rotors
EMUSA Coilovers
Brand new steering rack
Tein tension rods
Newish windshield
Functional headlights
350z 17" wheels and good tires.
I also removed/flushed/cleaned/reinstalled the gas tank
Battery relocated to trunk with high quality welding cable (way better than normal battery cable) and nice crimp fittings, all plastics in trunk.

I remade most of the harness (i'm mostly a wiring guy) and got it running beautifully on a MINES R32GTR ECU, and i'm considering trading it for an S14, or maybe something else that is just newer and has AC (this is my DD at the moment)

Body:
The car is a white 92 Coupe Sharknose with decent paint, over-fenders, black pignose carpet (very clean), S14 seats, digital cluster (cant get it to light up at the moment) with an I30 tach, etc. the shell isn't the best, and it could use a paintjob, but it has ZERO rust on it..

I basically bought this unfinished project from a local guy, went through the whole car, fixed and finished everything, got it running really well, and planned on selling it. I never really wanted to keep this car, just kind of been an on-going project of mine to keep me busy.

This car unfortunatly developed a slight noise in the engine bay. Figuring the worst, I went to replace all of the rod bearings (this was after I had already dropped the subframe to replace the steering rack) and all of them were perfect and in spec. I really don't know what the noise is, so I am including this video. I also checked all of the valve lash and it is all good. The car runs and drives really well and goes into boost just fine, I am at a loss at what it is. Probably something easy and stupid.

Haha, don't you worry! I really like this car, but it isn't me. I'm glad my friend got the car running for me
