Hey guys and girls

Today i took my intake pipe off my car to replace my noisy BOV with the standard silent BOV, and as everyone does, i looked around to see if there was anything happening that shouldn't be.

I noticed there was some oil sitting on the bottom of the pipe and over the throttle butterfly!

Question?? What is happening?? i think it could be the gasket has gone on the turbo? or could it be sucking oil out of the engine via the vacumn line from over head the coil pack cover?

Cheers everyone who tries to help and has helped in the past.

i went to markets n bought a cheep shitty oil catch can, then found some old heater hose,

i cut where the blowby pipe thing goes to the intake and put a bolt in the hose, then put the heater hose on the rocker cover thing down to my catch can thats cable tied to my battery

think da pcv valve brings blowby gasses back to the intake manifold 2 b burned off completely. was learning bout it at TAFE last year but correct me if im wrong cuz i cant really remember. it doesnt affect the performance much but letting only fresh air into the intake manifold is always a good thingbut id check to see if its something else dats bringing oil into the intake pipe but most of the time its excessive blowby.

wat is a pcv valve??

Positive Crankcase Ventilation

Very good read

Something Holden engineers should have done a better job of with the old 308

Which is why they always seem to have oil leaks-even not long after new sump gaskets are installed

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
