first a quick run down of whats going on any help would be great as we have exhasted all options.

its on the dyno getting a tune the A/F perfect 12.0 threw the rev range but just excess fuel black smoke coming out of the exhaust.

now we have changed O2 sensors on the dyno A/F reader also borrowed another one from another tuning shop down the road, both read fine and identical when charts compaired. pulled my car off and put a differnt car on the double check and the sensor is reading perfect.

now there is no power loss and response is great but just excessive black smoke and fumes/fuel you can smell it.

put a brand new O2 sensor in can come out black as f*** also changed plugs after and where realy carboned up.

run down on engine

fully forged

head work

cams tomie b

-5 turbos

pfc pro

z32 afm's

full race twin kotomoto exhaust

dumps

hard piping kit intake and cooler

blitz bovs

yellow jakets coils

800cc sard

tomie reg

044 surge tank

hks cam gears

any ideas would be great cheers

its twin seperated from the turos right back,

sensor was put in both tail pipes both read identical so this ruled out the first 3 and last 3 cylin runnin differnt

also the exhaust has 02 ports just after dumps, put in both sides up front and same thing reads perfect A/F ratios

Sounds like super polished combustion chamber - did you specify a combustion chamber suface finish? However if the pulgs are black then I would be looking at the tune. Any chance its really rich on cruise and idle?

only when it get into load the dyno room starts filling up with smoke and fumes

on idle and cruze its fine.

the reason for the retune in the first place is i had some crap go threw my turbos, had the turbo wheels replaced and fitted them backup.

changed the catch can setup from intake sucktion to just atmo filter. also put the blitz bovs on and hks twin power.

when its a full noise and bellowing out black smoke the afr are reading a perfect 12.0 that why its got us stumped. we even wiped the tune and started again but same thing.

super polished combustion chamber why would this cause bellows of black smoke? the head was ported and polished and also the combustion chambers where polished but cant see that being the reson for the smoke.

and i dont mean a little puff of black smoke, it filles the whole dyno room in a power run its that bad. but power is there 375awkw on pump fuel straight up

Polished combustion chambers cause less atomisation hence the 12:1 AFR and exess soot. Seen it on many cars with polished combustion chambers. The sards wont give you great atomisation either.

12.0 isnt perfect. different for every car. under full load 13 idle 14.7 is a good start.

What else causes black smoke? Everyone tells me my Stagea blows black smoke, but I've had it dyno tuned so it goes ramps up to 11.4:1 up in the revs. Would that be too rich? I have a 100cfm 5" cat, would that have anything to do with it? Sorry for hijacking.

when your turbo's crapped themselves did oil go through ur intercooler? you may have residue oil in there that get pushed up under boost... another thing to check is decel fueling coz if its real rich it takes some time to burn all the excess away. What ECU are you using?

Turbos didnt fully crap themselfs, i was doing some maintance checks and fould my comp wheels abit chewed up, so just had new front wheel put on.

if it was burning oil it wouldnt be black smoke would be blue. also you can smell that it def fuel.

its running a pfc pro

reguards to plugs running .7 gap and not sure what heat range, same as what we have always run tuner has them in bulk lol

when you baby it around then only give it stick now and again it blows out all the deposits (condensation and carbon type build up).

Hmmm that could be it. Gets babied most the time and give it the stick every now then..

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
