I haven't put the M restricted bolt in the block. I am have drilled a grub screw to 1.5mm and threaded my banjo bolts to simulate the block restrictor

The front turbo looks like the only one to be leaking into the exhaust. I will also look at the Tee piece. looks like the uphill section may be causing an issue as stated by elite.

I had another look and I do have the "M" restrictor bolt. I have installed 1.5mm restrictors in the banjo's which did help a smidge maybe. I hada think about it and pulled the Tee off installed a divider so the rear turbo drain oil doesn't effect the front as its an easier path for the rear turbo oil flow to go past the outlet and into the front turbo line before being pushed back and out the outlet causing more restriction on the front turbo return. I have pretty much no smoke at all now. Will go for a drive and check that it clears out of the exhaust. I will be revising my return lines as they are not optimal .89 mm ID. Be be interesting if they are ok at high rpm when more flow is required. Elite was correct pointing out my oil pump wasn't the problem.

Matt

are they the premade oil lines you can get from the uk? via ebay?

no, they were made up. guy made a mistake with my speed flow -10 quote which is actually -14 JIC. way to small. changing them tomorrow.

Its on an rb30, I doubt the factory lines would reach the extra 38mm

I am using the factory steel lines, they bent up 38mm. This is the oil returns. I should have used a 38mm T25 turbo flange shim. Would have put them all back in the standard position along with the dumps/front pipes.

I have changed my hoses from 8.9mm ID to 19mm ID(STD size) and had a Y piece made up so they both travel down hill the entire way. As long as the Tee isn't to restrictive I should be fine now. I have put a heat shield sheath on the rear line as it goes around the rear dump.

Talked to the guys at MTQ who said the turbo housing have a .8mm restrictor inside but I may need smaller if they still leak.

Will know how its goes tomorrow.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
