Errr, you are having a joke  :Oops:

White smoke form your exhaust, suggest moisture, nothing else. Where that moisture is coming from is the source of the problem, and not necesarily the pistons.

its not a joke and thats what we thought moisture when we first seen it but couple weeks later it got worse and wose....

it smells like burning oil... i'll post a pic of what happens when piston number 6 doesnt have compression, it leaks oil and goes throught the turbo intecooler, actuator, intake etc: and when it goes throught the turbo the turbo is hot and it burn is which makes white smoke out the exhaust.

it is no fault mate..

one mechanic told you it's a design fault and you think it's true?

as mentioned, if it was a fault, then why was it used on the R34 GTT.. and all the way up to it's last build date of what.. 1999?

there is nothing wrong with the design of the RB30, 20 red top, 20 silver top and 25...

sure they differ a little from one another but as you can see, they all have the throttle body in the middle of cylinders 3 and 4...

just have a look at these forums to see how many guys/girls have the stock plenum and running huge numbers.

look at the gibson racing team red top rb20 using stock plenum and some ridiculous numbers..

the only fault of the stock plenum is that is isn't as pretty as front facing..

By the way i was talking about stock engines. gibson racing team ? they most likley have forged pistons in their which can handle detination an they proberly have it tuned right, but with the standard ecu, internals, intercooler etc:

you'r got more chance of looseing a piston then a rubilt motor. thats why i mentioned it beause guilty beause he's got a stock engine. which means its at more risk of detination etc:

that's a cheap pump i'd be going fuel pump then front mount then avc-r...

my advice!

    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
