Gtr Problems :(

[Boosting]

I just found alot of oil in my pipes were the oil breather returns oil to, just after the airflow meters, fair build up of oil, what would cause this..

ARE MY RINGS GONE

or is this normal im thinking its not.

How much would i be looking at for a rebuild i got Quoted 5 g for pistion roings all the bearing yadda yadda

i think they were Aries pistion

Good deal ???

hey well the only way to check if your rings are gone is to take the oil cap off and rev the car.. if oil spurts out its the rings...

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

PowerFC wasn't showing higher levels of knock with the new dumps?

If you say it goes better with the new dumps and hasn't been tuned yet then it may be leaning out.
