do a compression test, if one pot is heaps lower or all your pressures are fairly low (my 33 gtr was 180psi and it seems to be a fairly healthy motor to me) you have a problem. If a piston is down or rings are badly worn you'll see a bit of smoke in you exhaust as well.

Did you really just go straight out and get a qoute to rebuild your motor with out doing some checks yourself?

How much boost do you run?

How often do you have your foot in to it and for how long? Through all the gears?

Do you have a catch can?

When you say alot do you mean like it drips out of the inlet pipe or just a dried film of sludge that comes off when you touch it?

alot as in its wet about 200 ml or so in the pipes, 1.2 bar of boost no catch can, usualy not to bad driving it when i race ill go all the way, im thinking they are worn cause it doesnt blow to much smoke and if any could be because its running rich.

and no i didnt just go out and get a quoated, it was froma while ago when i wanted more power.

Im just trying to be relistic, genenerly i look after the car, oil changes every 5000k and is hardly driving now, but theere is a clicking sound coming from the head around the 3rd cyclinder(NOT INJECTORS) and i have never lost powercar made 289kw at the rears on 14psi with ****ed spark plugs, and now goes even better after getting my dump pipes.

any idea is much apriciated.

But i will be getting a compresstion test to sus everything

    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
    • STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
