ok im new to skylines.

ive been told ive got blow by, bcoz my air pod is full of oil and leaking oil. my air pod is a hks oil based. the previous owner gave me a bottle of oil to clean it but i lost it >.<. he said every 5kms to clean it, nows the time to clean it. sometimes my cars idles been droping, sometimes it will stall, im not sure what is the problem im still working on it. I want to know should my air pod be leaking out oil? ive just recently changed the oil and oil filter. i went autobarn and brought some turbolight oil i think that was what it was called, one of the workers there recommended i use that. i was thinking...... that oil is for turbo cars and my car is a 1999 manual Non Turbo skyline r34, the fact that turbo cars have low compression pistons and my car will have high..... me who put in this turbo oil into my non turbo car.... did i just skew my engine....bcoz my airpod shouldn't be like this or should it...... im thinking of changing my air pod to a normal paper type one to see what happens, but im confessed what if i get oil coming out into that aswell. ive took my car to japcars and run a computer test and everythings running fine, no errors come up. my mates done a computer test manually for me, where u need a paper clip to push 2 things in and ur lights flash up, giving you a code. my car came up with no errors aswell. its weired..... nobody knows the problem ive been firstly it was oil, then spark plugs then something to do with the power circuit to the battery, i disconneted my subs, im running 4 neons and 2 subs in the boot 12inchs. my cars idle was alright wasnt droping nothing, then today when i was driving it was doing it again when i was in first gear with the clutch in. well firstly im guessing it the air pod i need to get this over and done with should i change it or clean it, if i change it do i need to change the part above it like the chip or something? or the change the pod to a new one.

    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
