Hey people

My specifications of my car are listed below

My car after getting its new-found power has beeen buring oil alot

I had a perfect compression before the upgrade of all 155psi

At first it was running Full synthetic ROYAL PURPLE 10W-40W.... and that will only last Max 2000km

Now im running PENRITE HPR 30 20w-60w and the Not bad but still my catch can is spitting out.

Am i using the wrong oil or do i have an engine problem

It usually does the damage when @ high revs

Now what might the problem ?????

cheers in advanced

hrmm, standard engine? yes you will have to get used to it. unless you replace the pistons. you have got ring flutter. very common on engines with "factory ring gaps"

unfortunatly not much you can do. just get a custom catch can made that drains back to the sump.

no matter what oil you use it will come out. have you checked the compression latly? doesnt take much to crack a ring land on the initial tune following the mods.

also, check the turbo. i have seen worn bearings in them alow boost to leak past the compressor wheel and presurise the sump..

(happenend to me, filled the can in 5 mins up the old road once)

I'm not sure thats good advice? I have 314rwkw on stock internals, and same turbo. I don't even have a catch can, and I don't burn a single drop of oil. Mate, whever tuned your car might have done it too agressively now its stuffed a ring land.

The catch can back into the sump idea is also a bad one, as that oil is trashed and shouldn't be used again. I'd do a compression and leak down test, and start putting aside about $4k for a rebuild just in case. Also

Also, I've been running Shell Helix 5w40 for the past 3 years and it seems to be really good as I have almost no engine wear. All of these expensive oils seem to be a bit of a waste to me.

Sounds like Right.............. Mafia im still running off a stock manifold too

The oil in the catch can looks pretty clean man......i dunno what going on

4k for a rebuild you sure............bel garage said about 7k without the manifolds

BTW penrite hpr 30 only cost $28 for 3L

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
