hey all

i got a big fkn problem. I was driving last night and i though id give it a little i was in 4th and got to max boost and before i cud change to 5th i looked behind me and the whole main road (kings rd sydenham) was covered in white smoke. I shat my pants. My car sounds wierd the idle was dropping out but not that much for the speedo to pick up. Now the car wont even start someone said its the spark plugs. If anyone has anyinfo of what it might be cos im also suspicious as to why there is oil sometimes spitting out of my blitz bov and some sitting in the throttle body where the stock bov is? someone from racv said the oil may have gone into the engine caught alight and smoked out the exhaust?

any info would be great cheers

ahk hopefully compression is fine, because the car boost's fine, not one thing wrong with it when it drives. It was just that one time.

But thanks heaps for all the info everyone, if you have anything else by all means let me know.

Really appreciated.

nah no noises, my mate asked me last night because he thought it could have been a blown turbo or just damage to the housing. But turbo sounds perfectly fine, no wierd noises and still boosts fine

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
