deatils of car:

33 GTST

engine mods:

fmic

pod filter

4" cat back

AVCR running .85bar boost

a couple of nights back i was doing a "spirited drive in the hills"

i geared down and heard a big deep (not hi pitched) whinning sound, i backed off for a while.

i few kms later wen i got back on it i smelt an oil smell when i was accelterating. (windows were down, with the windows up u cant smell it in the cabin)

i babied the car home in fear that it was somethign big

i thought mayeb it was gearbox oil so i changed and put in some redline shockproof stuff,

never helped, the car still smells of oil under accelration and when you cruisng along just under normal crusing speeds u can hear a deep whinning sound,

i have looked for oil leaks under the car and have not found any, i saw a few drops off teh bottom of the oil filter so i tighned that up a little, but the car still smells and still whines.

under really hard acceleration on backoff there is some blue smoke out the back, some ppl have said its black others say whiteish.

the car feels strong as normal, ie no power loss at all.

just a funny noise and some oil smell

also: i changed the diff oil to that vmx80 stuff about 2 weeks ago.

any ideas

The "few" times the Neil has come past me under acceleration then backed off a fairly large plume of blue ish smoke was released. Only on backoff after a hard acceleration, I have never seen any smoke come out of it under any other conditions. If that helps find the prob......
