Hi,

Heres the story:

I installed a Rb25 into my ceffy, the whole time I was having a missfire issue, after swapping plugs a heap of times, trying different gaps, swapping other ign parts I had the shits and changed to the AU coilpack set up, just for something to do and it was worth a shot.

Fired the car up, let it idle till it warmed up, went for a test drive.

About 2 streets away from my house, driving under light load in a 50kph street, the cabin fills with smoke.

I shit myself, pull over and pot the bonnet

So I know what blow by is and what causes it, but Ive never seen it this bad before!

It was literally high pressure oil coming from the breathers on the rocker cover.

Started it up, drove back home.

Pritty much no oil left in the sump.

Mods include:

aftermarket intercooler, full exh, hks 2535 on 10psi.

Stock ecu

Now, Is it possible that a lean-out might of happened the last time I drove it, enough to do damage but not enough to show it at the time?

Head gasket?

Other issues?

Havent looked at the car yet, was kind of annoyed it didnt really want to touch it for the time being, just trying to determine the problem before I rip the motor out.

Cheers,

agreed with the plumbing

i bet you removed all the charcoal canister and polution gear when you did the conversion, and havnt plumbed something up, if it was only under light load you may not have damaged anything yet. get the pressure cleaner out and take before and after shots so we can see where the oil came from and the so we can see how everything is plumbed under there, you will probly have an intercooler half full of oil aswell

Hang on...

How did the oil "get everywhere" if all the hoses were on?

If it were all plumbed up, all blow by would be sucked back into the motor and burnt up...

If it had a catch can, the catch can would be full/over flowing in to the intake...

If you left off the cross over pipe, it'd spew oil all over the engine bay, and thus, you just need to connect it up!

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      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!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      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.
