They dyno'd it but they only ran it at 8-10 pound. I'm at a loss, I can see these guys rubbing their hands together licking their lips at the money the want to make off me. They claim they can't print off the specs off their dyno'd machine as I asked for them. I don't know if I trust them or not. They said it has a shitload of blow by yet when I have checked it, it was minimal! Hulp!! What do I do? I'm in a regional area and we have only 2 places who know (sorta) how to work on these.

I haven't seen it yet, the guy said it blows smoke.

Well looks like a rebuild for me. Or do I sell it? What would it be worth in its current condition?

Thanks heaps guys! Really do appreciate all the help so far! Great to see a forum that has good people on it! Will try my mech tomorrow about "bunging" it. I seriously hope that fixes the issue. REALLY don't wanna fork out for a rebuild or it gonna be spaghetti for me for the next few months O_o Curious to know about silicone, I'd say your assumption would be spot on though. One question, if I ditch the catch can, what will all that oil do if I just run the pipe from one of the top pipes to the othe (factory I assume) will it bellow smoke?

Ok I searched high and low, repco, Burton's, super cheap, autobahn, and even Clark's rubber. No one has something to block the Pcv outlet off the rocket cover.

Ok no problem. What is considered low? It's got 120,000km on it. Prob had a semi rough life too (drift car)

Yeah it's a fair bit of oil that is sprayed out. The catch can is full after 30km. I did give it a few boosts during that period (I know prob a bad idea but I couldn't resist :-P) it also used about 60% of the 4 liters I put into it (after draining it)

Thanks ahhbee. Yeah I've been told by a few ppl ring lands. I have only driven the car about 30km since owning it, it's done about 1000km in 18 months, I have my dear little fingers crossed its just because it's plumbed wrong and been sitting so long.

Any chance I can bug for a picture so I don't stuff it up? I've been very paranoid about playing with any of it incase I stuff the car.

Ok this may explain my stupidness with this, the rocket cover 'intake' is either of the 2 pipes that come off the top of the rocket cover right?

Awesome!! Thanks for advice will rebook tomorrow and post pics (hopefully a nod of approval with what is done) would this cause the oil to splatter out the catch can when the turbo boosts? That along with the boost controller not connected.

Sorry O_o I thought I posted it in the wrong section. I just went and bought all service parts for it and will give it a whizz tomorrow with new platinum spark plugs, oil filter, and fuel filter.

Hey guys, so I got myself a gtst and joined the team. The engine has had a bit of work done to it. It's running a Garrett M24 and I have some serious pressure issues with the catch can. I have asked a few local mechanics and have gotten different responses. From - its rooted to its fine it's just not tuned correctly. One guy basically screamed at me firmly telling me "no engine should have blow by" yet my mate who is the PDM at Toyota/Nissan told me even brand new cars do it which even is backed up on what I have read online. He further went on to show me his turbo hilux, that thing chugged like a steam train from the oil filler. He placed the oil cap over the top and the damn thing started dancing over the rocket cover. The car doesn't blow any smoke except occasionally a very brief puff when changing gears (first drive of day) there was water in the oil but minimal amounts. I have confirmation the car has only done 1000km in the last 18 months. My mate from Toyota said that he would expect a car sitting that long to have that amount of water in it anyway (condensation) considering the doozy of the problem it has. I had a compression test done and it's a fairly even 120 across the board. However when the car is kicked in the guts oil splatters out of the catch can. I have been told - rebuild it! Suspected ring lans. However when I decided to start pulling the engine out this weekend we found the boost controller had a blown fuse and here is where I'd LOVE the advice, seems like the catch can system is plumbed wrong. (please remember I am a complete noob with these) from what we are assuming, is the Pcv tube isn't connected to the catch can rather it is plumbed back into the boost side of the intake. I will post pics soon as I can. We are under the assumption that the Pcv is trying to boost 20psi through the top end of the engine and going straight into the tubes that run from the rocket cover into the catch can and blasting it out the filter on the top. When the valve is connected the filter on the catch can blows bubbles when idling, yet when u disconnect it, it stop. Any help much appreciated!! Top tube goes to pcv shown on first pic

Where is stock on these?
