  1. Hi Folks,

    I was driving my car other night (not harder than normal), and now the exhaust is making lot of noise. It sounds like a v8 or like i put some fn loud exhaust on. The car drives smooth though NO bad smoke from exhaust, i didnt really notice loss of power. I did check under car and turbo seems ok I cant see any oil leaks there.

    The noise seems to be coming from around turbo/ exhaust manifold area.

    Any ideas?

  2. hey guys,

    i found what the problem was, too high boost, through my intercooler

    i went to trackday on friday @wakefield park , and i lowered the boost from 11psi to 6psi, and this solved the problem. I did 10 laps straight and had no issues with loss of power.

    most of time now i do 5 laps, then 1 slow lap, then repeat.

    i think r33 has dual stage boost, as it goes up 6psi, but after 4-5krpm it goes up to 10psi, but i didnt have any issues.

    anyways thanks for help, and do try wakefield park on weekdays, it was open track all day not many cars at all. :)

  3. Hi Guys,

    I am having an issue with my nissan skyline r33 gtst.

    I went to track days few times now and I get loss of power after first 5 laps. Power decreases significantly. At wakefield I can reach 175km/h on straight but after about 5 laps I can reach only 150.

    So thats 10-20% power loss.

    I assume this is because car is getting too hot.

    Mods r34 intercooler, 3'' exhaust turbo back, boost controller 10psi. fuel pump.

    -So far I have changed to use different oil from motul 8100xcess (10-40) to castrol edge 10-60.

    -I flushed the radiator and put better coolant. I have not flushed the coolant in engine, the damn release screw is ridiculous to get to and unscrew.

    -changed AFM, and fuel pump. so def not those and oh boy it drinks alot.

    Any recommendations??

  4. Hi Folks,

    I have been using Motul 8100 x-cess for my Nissan skyline r33 GTST. I think this is one of the best oils.

    I noticed other Oil topic is since 2003! Thats way to ancient. API/SN standard for oils was introduced in 2010.

    So my question is what else is a comparison to motul 8100-xcess and is API/SN oil?

    anyone used Valvoline Synpower Engine Oil - 5W-40?
