Hey guys,

Got told there was a buff of blue smoke after I came off boost.

I have -5s with fully forged engine and tomei oil pump.

was thinking maybe a oil seal on the turbo side and abit of oil getting into the exhaust housing.

Did a google search in SAU seems to be the consensus.

Thoughts?

Sounds like what was happening when my -7's were leaking

How long ago where they rebuilt? Did you get any warranty with the rebuild? probably not I am guessing. If it was not long ago then you might have an underlying issue with oil supply for your turbos.

Full rebuild required and as GTSBoy said, possible it could of happened during the repair too if due car wasn't taken.

Definitely frustrating if you are going to do it yourself or costly if you aren't, removed plenty from a few cars and it's never any more fun than the first time.

Engine and turbos were rebuilt 10 months ago (15,000km).

I might be able to get the turbo guy to come to the party but my tuners labour wont be included.

If it works out that way then I will be ok with that.

Thanks guys - its about what i thought.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
