haha nice man, that may set you back a bit, im looking at getting wheels from a fridge trolley from supercheap then letting the air out, putting a pvc pipe over each wheel then pumping the tyres back up, cheap and easy.

would also need bearings and maybe a new slightly bigger axle to fit the new wheels and then should be sorted.

wedge_r34gtr i read that you removed some BOV from ur GTR and u are putting the stock ones back on, would you like to part with the ones u have taken off as long as they are in good condition?

At this stage they will be going back on the car temporarly as i don't have time to sort the recirculation piping. But in a month or so they will be coming back off. (btw - there HKS SSQS - they have a bit of gasket goo on em, but i'll be giving them a service before they go back on the car, so they will be in great condition mecanically)

Could you not use a go kart axle and wheels?

Or would that blow the budget out to much?

Come up to newy then :)

If not just go down the pass ya pussy. f**k I miss that road...

Yeah that's what the pros use Martin but your looking at ATLEAST 50 bucks for wheels an worn out tyres (you don't need tyre thread)

The axle would be around 50 and then wheel hubs to keep them on. So looking to find fridge trolley therefrom the tip or something haha

Well let me know when u take the off and dont need them, ill talk price with you then :yes:

hey guys, when i dont start my car for a week my car blows rich as f**k white smoke (smells f**kin lovely).

why does it do this?? if it was just over fueling from being in the lines itd do it every time i turn it off and let it cool down, but it has to be atleast a week.

so it must be on purpose? is there a reason any one knows of?

White smoke = burnt oil.

maybe the turbo has shit itself

The white smoke is generally associated with turbos shitting themselves from what ive read

/a blown turbo seal leaks oil straight into exhaust

http://www.gtr.co.uk...smoke-help.html

Inspected an S15 with a blown turbo and a f**k off massive cloud of white smoke came out of the exhaust when the guy accelerated and drove off.

Burning oil is black I'm pretty sure. And it boosts hard so the turbo is fine.

I'm pretty sure white smoke is fuel and blue smoke is water (head gasket)

Plus is smells like fuel. Just rich as f**k fuel. It's nice. Only happens for around 20 seconds if it happens at all.

It's done it since I got it and had it as a weekend. Since then 3 track days 2 skid days so it's not an issue.

Martin and Luke are correct.

i've never heard of a blown turbo causing white smoke...Even that link you posted was unconfirmed.

I'd say the s15 you looked at had a leaking head gasket in additon to the blown turbo.

Edited by wedge_r34gtr

Keep an eye on it Jarad. It may be just conensation build up. if it appears to be getting worse, take it to a dyno and get em to drop a pressure sensor into the cooling system. They will be able to pickup the pressure spike if you have a leaky head gasket.

Wedge....

take a look at this link... re: white smoke

http://www.gtr.co.uk...hite-smoke.html

they suggest it can also be caused by turbo or cracked piston or cracked cylinder =S

    • Hey mate, thread dredging hahah To answer you directly, yes I had my itbs oversized and custom butterflies etc made by EFI Hardware in Sydney back around 2017-2018 if memory serves. My setup had a vast amount of other changes too though, so no direct comparisons unfortunately. i went from oem itbs, HPI manifold and internal gate hks 2835 pro S; to 49mm itbs, cnc port matched Nismo plenum, RB25 Neo lower runner adapter hand port matched, r31house v2 Takoashi MAX equal length twin scroll manifold with twin 38mm tial gates and a FP HTA3076 with 1.01ar twin scroll real hosing. feom power Fc to a link fury wired by 12volt, r32 gtr fuel tank conversion with frenchys twin 460 / surge tabk fuel hanger combo kit, 1659cc injectors, full 4 inch turbo back stainless exhaust, Z34 6 speed, Tomei 2way with 4.3 final drive and a ton of other shit. ive posted elsewhere here with complete run down, but here's a graph from its initial tune with no boost control on, 20psi gate springs only and e85.   7542AE72-DA92-4E0B-8660-B0940FEA7F24.mov
    • On sale mate, $55. Sorted. https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/toolpro-toolpro-torque-wrench-1-2-drive/565734.html?utm_content=paidsearch-pmax&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwytS-BhCKARIsAMGJyzqYEnwWmhWf6gxTST_Nz06Gd2VePgyvL7lh6PWrQtbjXTsI6TqSCLEaAuaCEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
    • Slap it and say it ain't going no where, you'll be fine.
    • So the whole rb25de neo setup was a tiptronic setup and i swapped everything over to my rb20de neo setup and yes even the cluster of the rb25 was swapped over. 
    • and I thought size mattered 😝 At this point I may either pray to the Afterpay gods and get a torque wrench or attach a water bucket to the breaker bar. I appreciate the help though 🙏🏾
