nah its not. no blue smoke at all.

i can actually see its coming from the filter area.. just not sure exactly where.. might degrease the whole lot a couple of days before the next service to see where it is..

turbo's getting fixed once we finish scottys GTX i got a cheap quote from Hypergear so will get it done!

and if theres anymore problems im gonna buy scottys or another stock one and start again.. what choice would i have.

Hey Aaron, I hear Craig's got a good one for sale :P

Why go Hypergear? Don't want to go GTX?

Does the HKS filter have the magnet in it? Time to get ready for my next service I think, stacked on the K's since I got it!

Its not the turbo's fault, or the car really. The banjo bolt restrictor would have been partially blocked in Aaron's car causing the bearings to fail. Can you imagine how easy it is to block a 1mm hole with crud? I bet most of the turbo failures have been caused by oil starvation as im running 19psi on the stock turbo for 3 months now without an issue, and at 225kw so the shaft speed is right up there...

buy craigs because its broken down less and killed fewer turbos :P

How is craigs broken Down less? His is broken more than all of us. Remember he does have a different engine coz he brokeded his other one.. Not to mention the trabsmission flaring through every gear..

Stop trying to sell the mexicans your dodgy yank products we all know anything the yanks make don't really last

Yep, Carlton. "Melbourne Business School".

Hangman's Tour at the Gaol tonight. Gonna bag me a ghost!

BTW I did actually as a question related to this thread, that got lost in the bullshit... does the HKS oil filter have a magnet in it? I'm running the Nismo at the moment and will be due for a change soon.

got around to fixing my oil leak yesterday.

drained the oil, pulled off the filter.

used a 22mm deep socket to get the plate off.

I dunno if it is just mine, but it was close to being blocked with a whole bunch of gunk. as if the oil have become almost greasy mud. to be honest i dont how oil was actually travelling through..

any way.. cleaned it all up ended up talking almost half a palm full of gunk out.. put it all back together with a new Greddy filter. and filled it with sougi.

once the car was warm enough after about 10-15min of driving, i gave it some Gas.. and found out my tunes is all over the place again and lean? didnt think it would make this much of a difference..

being cleaned i know ive free'd up the oil flow alot and the engine obviously. and at Idle, the car sound 200% better than it did 3 days ago.. and every other time i've done a service...

this could also be half the reason my turbo kept blowing lol

what is everyones thought? perhaps you should all check yours???

Cam/Craig/Iain: Please dont take the piss out of this my uncle just died so im really not in the mood.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
