Hi there guys, i need some help!! I have a r32gtr and it has aftermarket turbos injectors computer etc and i was giving it heaps in 2 wheel drive lke reving its tits off and i pulled up in the garage and popped the hood and there was oil everywhere, I freaked out and did not know what to do. I looked at the dip stick and it was sticking out a little and the oil was all around that area and the engine bay. What does this mean????

1 Maybe too much oil in the car

2 No catch can fitted

3 What happens when you rev the shit out of these engines

sound like a over pressurized sump to me. 2 things would have happened, blown rings or ring landings, high reving pressurized sump but little to no damage (very lucky). chuck some more oil in her and if it is still blowing a engine rebuild is needed. could also do a compression test first.

Have went out and given it heaps again and it seems to be fine now, i had it serviced and i think there was too much oil put in it, can it react in this way because the car still has a little over full even after loosing quite a bit of oil, maybe 500ml of it??

yeah it can.. .i've never experienced the dipstick moving, but my oil was overflowing into the catchcan... over 1ltr, so it was spilling out of the catchcan... after a leak down test, it turns out one of the cylinders was less than perfect....

so i'd get it check if i was you... for me it was ONLY happening under hard right hand turns (at a track) so we wouldn't have picked up on it, if not for that!

edit: should add, i had the normal amount of oil in, so maybe it is just excessive oil for you... to be honest, its not something i'd risk... get it checked out!

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
