Oil Everywhere?

[VIP32]

Hi there guys, i need some help!! I have a r32gtr and it has aftermarket turbos injectors computer etc and i was giving it heaps in 2 wheel drive lke reving its tits off and i pulled up in the garage and popped the hood and there was oil everywhere, I freaked out and did not know what to do. I looked at the dip stick and it was sticking out a little and the oil was all around that area and the engine bay. What does this mean????

1 Maybe too much oil in the car

2 No catch can fitted

3 What happens when you rev the shit out of these engines

I dont know can anyone help me please???

[VIP32]

any ideas

sound like a over pressurized sump to me. 2 things would have happened, blown rings or ring landings, high reving pressurized sump but little to no damage (very lucky). chuck some more oil in her and if it is still blowing a engine rebuild is needed. could also do a compression test first.

and so we enter in to "the R32 gtr game"

Compression got an even 150 over all 6 cyclinders, So is it right to still drive etc.

hmm.. this happened to me... dip stick flew out.. oil everywhere... was an oil surge and meant a complete rebuild

[markimak]

youll be right how much oil was left in the sump.? and what was ur oil temp on the gauge..? wonder if u cooked/boiled it?

[Green_s13]

how much oil was in the car before this???

it could also be a breather that might be blocked

[tridentt150v]

Can you categorically unequivocally state that you seated the dipstick all the way home prior to this???

Had the same problem in an SR20DET. It was ring problem. Strip down and rebuild!

I hope for your sake its not that.

Good Luck

Have went out and given it heaps again and it seems to be fine now, i had it serviced and i think there was too much oil put in it, can it react in this way because the car still has a little over full even after loosing quite a bit of oil, maybe 500ml of it??

wow... ur brave

yeah it can.. .i've never experienced the dipstick moving, but my oil was overflowing into the catchcan... over 1ltr, so it was spilling out of the catchcan... after a leak down test, it turns out one of the cylinders was less than perfect....

so i'd get it check if i was you... for me it was ONLY happening under hard right hand turns (at a track) so we wouldn't have picked up on it, if not for that!

edit: should add, i had the normal amount of oil in, so maybe it is just excessive oil for you... to be honest, its not something i'd risk... get it checked out!

[VIP32]

no, i was scared, but i thought it would be a good way of testing it, knock went to like 14.

I have heard that this happens went you put too much oil in the engine, can anyone confirm this??

Thanks

[VIP32]

Getting it tested by what, how do they test for something like this?? Compression has been done at 150 over all 6

[TTT]

wow... ur brave

LOL I'll say..

"there is oil every where.. have I broken something?"

"I'll test it out by giving it a good old fashion arse forking"

"All good now"

dude i freak when i see oil that was clearly left by ANOTHER car, let alone pissed all over my engine!

get a catch can and it would most likely stop. had same issue with a mates car and we took it to a gtr tuner and he said it needed a catch can as we had the top blocked off

[Green_s13]

an over fill of oil can casue dipsticks to blow out i have a seen it a few times, since you have had the compression test i would say that this is the most likely cause

[WazR32GTSt]

i had a blocked PCV valve which caused similar issues.. very cheap and easy thing to check
