Lol, well i talked to my mechanic friend, seems to him that cus i put too much oil in, and that my rings are most likely warn, that at the tempreature i was drifting in made my oil go too thin and slip past the rings and into the PCV which then put excess pressure on my sump, theirfore creating more pressure on the crank case, causing the blow out and oil in my intercooler piping and bov and what not....my turbo is still boosting....so im thinking that its ok......BUT NEWS JUST IN, I JUST GOT BEATEN BY A VTSS WITH 5 PEOPLE IN IT....this is unheard of......somthing HAS to be wrong....poor me...beaten by a vt....and i even brag about how much i eat them for lunch... he even pretended to row a boat past me when i pretended to whip my hourse....oh the pain, the pain of it all...hahaah...

If it was a moded gen111 they go hard.

:werd:

i gave one a run with 4 people in it one night.

must have had some $$$ spent on it and close to the 300kw Monaro's spec.

But with few mods they do crank out some good mambo.

I still won but it a bit of a shock from an SS...

Now, the quest for a motor lol

With 2 cracked ring lands (2 pistons but not too bad), poorly sized pistons and rings due to a workshop error I have now discovered and blowing about 400ml of oil into the catch can per 15min on track in the wet I still had enough mumbo to spin up fourth at 180kmh.

The first pistons I did due to the turbo I cracked 4 and one had 35mm of rings and lands just gone....drove for another 2500km and still making great power but the dipstick was held in with a spring and the catch can kept filling super fast. Daily drain effort. RB's are an impressive engine and take some punishment.

Get the leakdown and compression test ASAP

I Have already booked my car in for a compression test. Kinda sus as to why it is doing it, I haven't thrashed it, and before me it didn't have too many mods. The only thing I can think of is that, just before I bought it(like 2 days) the guy put a new bigger highflowed turbo on. I didn't boost it at all because I was sus to the standard fuel pump, and I had suspicions that it wouldn't be able to keep up to the demand even on low boost, my suspicions were confirmed on the dyno.

I can only thing that maybe, the guy before me had given it a thrash before handing it over, and run lean and encountered some detentation. I so hope not but it is the only thing I can think of, becasue I treat my car with the upmost respect, and never leave things to chance.

I had a similar thing happen last weekend, I was doing some 1st-4th gear runs and when I got back there was oil all over the engine, basically the N1 oil pump was working so well it filled up the tappet covers and oil then came out from the breather pipes to the catch can and when that filled up then oil sprayed out the top of the catch can! Very scary though...

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
