Hi,

Heres the story:

I installed a Rb25 into my ceffy, the whole time I was having a missfire issue, after swapping plugs a heap of times, trying different gaps, swapping other ign parts I had the shits and changed to the AU coilpack set up, just for something to do and it was worth a shot.

Fired the car up, let it idle till it warmed up, went for a test drive.

About 2 streets away from my house, driving under light load in a 50kph street, the cabin fills with smoke.

I shit myself, pull over and pot the bonnet

So I know what blow by is and what causes it, but Ive never seen it this bad before!

It was literally high pressure oil coming from the breathers on the rocker cover.

Started it up, drove back home.

Pritty much no oil left in the sump.

Mods include:

aftermarket intercooler, full exh, hks 2535 on 10psi.

Stock ecu

Now, Is it possible that a lean-out might of happened the last time I drove it, enough to do damage but not enough to show it at the time?

Head gasket?

Other issues?

Havent looked at the car yet, was kind of annoyed it didnt really want to touch it for the time being, just trying to determine the problem before I rip the motor out.

Cheers,

agreed with the plumbing

i bet you removed all the charcoal canister and polution gear when you did the conversion, and havnt plumbed something up, if it was only under light load you may not have damaged anything yet. get the pressure cleaner out and take before and after shots so we can see where the oil came from and the so we can see how everything is plumbed under there, you will probly have an intercooler half full of oil aswell

Hang on...

How did the oil "get everywhere" if all the hoses were on?

If it were all plumbed up, all blow by would be sucked back into the motor and burnt up...

If it had a catch can, the catch can would be full/over flowing in to the intake...

If you left off the cross over pipe, it'd spew oil all over the engine bay, and thus, you just need to connect it up!

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
