hey everyone,

the car is blowing white smoke on heavy decel and if im just crusing around with out coming on too boost

and change gears it gets a very small puff of white smoke, i had a comp test on the w/e before we dynoed it

with interesting results

1. 165

2. 175

3. 180

4. 175

5. 175

6. 180

when we removed the plugs there was no sign of oil(or burning oil) on any plugs they were very clean and even burning

my tuner seems to think it s turbos??

is it possible to be valve stem seals??

it doesnt blow any smoke on start up or if its been sitting

i tried searching for the results but nothing that helped me out

Possibly stem seals...... After a decent drive try pulling over and leaving car to idle for a couple minutes. Then while watching in the rear view give it a swift rev up to say 3000 rpm and off. Will it give a puff of white smoke on revs declining ?

How old or new are your turbos?

its going to be the rear seal on one of the turbos. oil is passing the seal when there is no back pressure in the rear oulsing. oil pressure is overcoming the pressure in the housing and then a bit of oil passes the seal and smokes in the hot turbine housing.

I had this happen with the last turbo I bought. I rebuilt it myself and no more smoke

cheers!

    • does anyone know tie rod torque setting and anti roll bar for r34? Is there a workshop which shows various components torque setting?
    • Hi    have purchased pair of eibach wheel spacer as I couldn’t fit set of wheels I bought for my car due to it catching caliper.   I know I need to cut the bolts on my discs so they sit flush with the nut supplied but the nut doesn’t sit all the way into the groove meaning wheel would not directly fit onto the spacer rather the nuts. Any thoughts?   See pic   https://ibb.co/VJK5w5G
    • Nah. There's not shit tonnes of pressure in there. Just drill with a 1.5mm drill or something equally tiny. When the drill goes all the way through thee gas will start to come out, but with such tiny path through the flutes of the drill bit, it won't be at all dangerous. You can be as paranoid as you like from then on. I'd just pull the drill out while keeping my face out of the line of fire. But then, I spend half my time looking into pressurised furnaces. So my risk acceptance is somewhat higher than most!
    • Been needing a new clutch for a while, but holding off because of life tingz and adulting. But... Being of Asian descent, I can't pass on a good sale, especially everyone else is selling it for $2k+ (JJR has it for $1799). Really on the fence on this one, because the unsprung version of this is $1281 via Shitbox (Sparesbox) and the sprung version is quite a bit more (no idea why Shitbox doesn't offer them). Ending up just sending it and getting the twin sprung organic. Mainly because I wanted the car to be nice to drive and didn't want to make it more of a shitbox than it already is.    
    • It was the pressure I was worried about. @GTSBoy does drilling them pose any problems?
