Fuel smelling oil / fuel and oil in catch can
pogman replied to pogman's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Yeh its more about making it at least look legal and functional but if i have to ill just pop a breather on it if that works best for the engine. As i dont exactly want to pay for another forged engine build just to keep the coppers happy -
Fuel smelling oil / fuel and oil in catch can
pogman replied to pogman's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
So quick update as i put a filter on the catch can rather then having it return to the intake and went out last night to test it out and gave her some shit and barely any oil came out of the can. Still havent done a compression test as esspecially after that im hoping i dont need one now as it seems to have fixed it for now but its definitely due for an update as im still not a fan of the way the can looks. -

Hmmm sounds interesting maybe the ring gap is abit looser on this motor and so more blowby? I may have to try something similar as although apparently lots of people do it im not sure i want to return the e85 contaminated oil back to the sump? -

Yeh i think i will do a compression test aswell and possibly a leak down if it turns out bad -

Nah no oil cooler. It normally sits at a stable and decent temp so i think its getting hot enough. It could possibly be running rich but i have had a few people go over the afrs as i wasnt overly confident with my most recent tune and everyone seemed to be faily happy with them? -
So i am having some trouble with my rb25 at the moment. The motor was rebuilt just over 1 yr ago and runs on e85 and at every oil change of course there is always a smell of fuel in the oil which i have been told and have learnt to expect from ethanol. But recently i had stopped up from a coastal run to find oil leaking from the front bumper which was traced back to the pod filter as my catch can is plumbed back pre turbo. So clearly my can was overfilled so much it was being pulled into the intake thanks to the turbo and smoothering the pod filter in oil. Now this was the weekend before racewars and as i had no issues beforehand and had done a fresh oil change decided there wasnt much i could do and to just give it a go at racewars. But after 2 runs of the 800m i had again overfilled my 1.8l catch can enough to see oil out the bumper. Now what has me really concerned is the fact that after 2 runs of 800m my catch can and oil both reak of fuel. I have spoken to the engine builer and he isnt concerned with oil and fuel in the can as it isnt a great design and so since this i have read most of the oil control thread and am planning the new catch can system to drain and vent to sump as it should. But i am concerned that even after this i will still have this same issue as im concerned the rings are shagged is there any chance its not the rings? Thank you

Im also struggling with mine sitting in traffic or at lights on a hot day but as soon as i move the water temp drops down to normal temps within a minute or so. But my oil temp stays up there for a long time so i will definitely be purchasing an oil cooler as its a known issue with rbs to struggle with oil temp. Do you have an oil temp gauge and if so does that see huge increase when you're water temp goes up?

Following up my post from the other day i have recieved a refund and as a whole i was happy about the product and would still reccomend them for someone doing a build on the cheaper side as they are like half the cost of competitors and still perform well within what most people require just unfortunately for me i pushed them a little too hard

Hi about 8 months ago i purchased some YJ coils for my rb25 s2 that was being rebuilt and on its most recent tune that happened about a month ago they said they couldnt push the boost over 18psi while making 360rwkw. Now im having to change my coils due to most recently a misfire at the top of the rev range indicating that the coils are beginning to break down? I have changed the spark plugs but to no avail. I am surpirsed at how the coils performed considering some peoples comments but they have been in the car all of 6 months and i think may be on there last legs

Whoop ass wednesday 9th may is skyline night. Everyone with a skyline can come down and have abit of fun for just $20. I will be taking my car down and would be awesome to meet up with anyone else going down to the plex, also if enough of us will go down we could even get our own lane and have abit of freindly rivalry.

Rb25 Turbo Upgrade, All Dyno Results
pogman replied to Nacho Vidal's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
I will definitely check those when i next get the chance and may potentially take it to a different shop to see what they can get out of it. More boost is definitely on the card soon -
Rb25 Turbo Upgrade, All Dyno Results
pogman replied to Nacho Vidal's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
The head gasket was recommended by the mechanic when doing a freshen up on the engine and as a newbie i just went with it, whats the advantage of thr 1.2mm hg over the 1.5mm? Will definitely crank the boost up once i get used to this power abit more but would like a surge set up first. -
