MBS206

Wait... You have 2 GTRs for racing?

Hey guys, I have had another issue crop up with my car, originally it had MASSIVE blow by, but since the fit ment of a catch can, the intake pipes appear clean and dry now. But I still have an issue, if I run up on 5+ PSi of boost, car starts blowing blue smoke, and then when I back off puts huge plumes of smoke out the back. I noticed late this afternoon it put a touch of blue smoke out whilst idling for minute... Only seen it do it once though... Now I'm thinking it is either a turbo oil seal, or a valve stem seal. I'm going to pull the turbo this Saturday/Sunday and check it all out, but how can I "test" the valve stem seals? That and what else could it possibly be? For extra information, PCV is disconnected and blocked. Only rocker cover breathers is from cam covers to catch can, back to intake. Car is an RB25/30DET with a bit of a mixer turbo on there high mounted.

I think it's more the chineese copyin, claiming it's a "HKS" yet it's made out of very low quality steel and is bent from the factory... That's the issue. Nothing wrong with copying, so long as you're not claiming it is something it isn't, or trying to make it look like them.

I'd start by having the air con regassed.

If it's been sitting for 6 months, possible water vapour? Drive it around, put 100KMs on it, see if it's still there (That's if it's not like massive amounts looks like car is on fire style) As Dirt said, another comp test/leak down.

Paid... And paid for show and shine at the same time. Please let uncy duncs know my money for SNS is in. Description "MBS206 Texi + SNS" Form to come Edit: And no fire extinguisher needed this time?

Oh, just to be fair... I'd think about a stroker when the right one comes out... The one for the RB30... 3.3L...

Pfft, just remove it all together...

If you can do me a rotating assembly for less then $2000 all built (head included) sure, I'd do it... And who said they don't rev? I'm about to have mine retuned for 7500RPM in the new year... Onlly reason I won't go higher is the cams that are in it aren't suited to hard revving.

Last RB25DE I bought was $300. Last 25DET I bought was $350.

Why couldn't this be in NSW... I'd offer a swap!

Have you got a rear quarter dent? Most of the front bar paint missing? Dropped a motor on the radiator support? Dropped a gearbox on the front bar? Cause I have... LOL Must fax shit off and pay for stuff tomorrow I think

Mine will breath 800ML of oil within about ooo... 130KMs of street driving... Yes, sump is well and truly topped up because I'd been at the track, and NO, I don't have any external (Including the factory) drains hooked up... These are my issues...

You need to re-read your rules and regs... You CAN put an old engine in a new car, BUT you have to get said old engine up to new car emmision laws... That is the rule, emmisions must meet what ever is newest.

Damn straight... I'd rather an argument with the missus not being allowed to drive it then a 10G rebuild fee...

I'm waiting till closer to the day to enter... My car is tempermental... And if I do come... Don't expect shiney... If it's lucky it'll get touched with the sponge...

Both ETM and 6Boost do true split pulse manifolds.

Might be interested in the head depending on what you'd want. But not the whole car. But being honest... Whole motor - $1000 - $2000 Turbo $250 Gearbox $1400 Suspension - $100 - $200 Seats - $100 - $300 Rims - $200 - $500 Brakes - $500? They're your main items you'll sell with it stripped and what they'd be worth.

I'll join Stu and Jase also, and I'm guessing Owen will too.

Anti clock wise will advance, clock wise will retard.

Sounds like PFC has lost its settings maybe? It shouldn't, but may have.

I did hassle them a few times, and in the end I gave up. The copper who was the contact point couldn't do two fifths of f**k all about it. It's all held up by the lab. Think of how much shit goes through the labs, and severly under staffed too. Also Mr Magoo, it does spin 4th up occasionally on street tyres sweety. As for resorting to "name calling" Princess, you did first So I leave the question, doesn't that leave you the bigger idiot?

Dear Sir, It seems that you are the idiot, resorting to personal attacks. No story has been changed, you have simply interpreted the facts how you see fit. If a car is doing 100KM/H and can not put down its power to accelerate, how will it reach the 170KM/H if it's not accelerating... Coppers did a print of the car. They removed prints from the car, they must wait for prints to come back before they can proceed, prints come in 6 months later, which gives them no extra evidence, by the time this comes in the extra evidence they could have had had they questioned the day it happened, is gone... Hence, they are left with a mobile phone of a local "punk" who is known for knocking cars off, but the coppers now have no evidence to pin it on him. Oh, and I'm sure your mother used that line on you when ever you started to argue with her... But it was probably said "Dear Son, shut the f**k up, I don't argue with idiots, you'll bring me down to your level and beat me with experience" And, the next time you get into an argument you find you can't win, as you're not interpreting the facts correct, STFU before resorting to name calling...

I never said no traction at 170... But definite no traction at 100 to be able to put the horsies down... Proven on the track to with Semi's on... Also, I don't think you're really seeing it... The only way they could make that arrest for my car, was if they got the guy straight away with whiplash etc. BUT they can't go around straight away until prints come back (Which 99% of the time come back negative anyway) and hence now, the only thing they have is one item, which won't get them any where for a conviction... IE, it's impossible now for them... Also, traffic section = totally different section to detectives... Catching someone in the act is so much harder then trying to track 1 in a million people down from a vague description... That's IF there was a witness to give one!

Speak to a few... They hate the crap they now have to deal with compared to 10 years ago. Oh, and by lost, it ends up in the mountain of shit that "aren't worth it" I could walk in there, make them dig them up and they'd go "yep, we got fingerprints, they didn't match anything, we have nothing now" purely because the shit they have to deal with politically, they'd be knee deep in shit if they went to question this bloke PURELY for having found stuff that links him to it, with out waiting on prints. The prints are there, they'll just never get dealt with, and hence "lost" (Notice, It was in " " as in, not literally lost) You claim Wacky Dee is "wrongly accused" he has admitted quite a few times to "planting it past people" and definitely be doing at least 110KM/h... I know for a fact, with my "stock" (Again, basic mods ~195KW) skyline, if I pulled out from behind someone at 80/90KM/H and planted it until I was level with them, I'd have been doing around 140 - 150KM/H... I know for a fact my setup I run now leaves me doing around 170 - 180 KM/H now (If I get traction) My old commodore (V6) would be doing 110 odd km/h... Not a skyline... It's a matter of, he was speeding, he admits it... Then he goes high horsing... And the crap "I can't live without my car, it'll make life so hard" No, it'll make his life socially hard... I've been pinned by the coppers before, I was doing, I wasn't doing the speed that they claim I was... And I just took the fine and points on the chin...
