I think that was a legitimate speed camera flash because it seemed to come from the other side of the intersection? Then again, I don't remember another flash and my car is in this photo :/

Speed camera flashes have traumatised me for life.

If that's your 32 Jamie, it dumps quite a bit of smoke when you're giving it stick!

:laugh:

Mr. Windsurf (Andrew) said the same thing... O2 Sensors might need changing again.

Does it use the O2 sensor when you're full throttle? Could be too thin an oil or worn piston rings / turbo seals. Can't remember if black smoke is oil or fuel burning.

whitey blueish smoke is oil...

black is rich fueling...afaik

btw, how bad is mine? I have never checked other then in rear view... just with the screamer I can't imagine it would be much better?

Yeah, Andrew said the same thing, black.

Must be running rich.

Adam, yours blows a fair bit under load, but every car will do something on full throttle...I don't remember noticing anything as much as I did Jamie's. Sounds like you do need a tune Jamie :)

Nar you'll have to Nistune or PowerFC for a dyno tune...but I meant "tuning" as in getting everything running right. You might actually have an underlying issue as to why it's running rich under load. On light throtle / cruising it's usually an O2 sensor...but this might be injector, spark or timing related? Nothing to be concerned about unless it's fouling your spark plugs, it'll just use more fuel and might not be as powerful as it could be if it was running leaner :)

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
