Not sludgy at all motor is fine the turbo line is blocked

so you're saying it is blocked? seen a few cars with turbo oil starvation problems, usually blocked lines/filters if it has them, it's getting oil in the exhaust after it seizes you mean?

Yeah I mean was running fine then the rear turbos exhaust wheel blew cos of shaft play it was hitting the inside of the turbo housing so I changed the turbo now it's make only 7 psi instea of 14 when I start it up only the front turbo spins freely at idle the rear one is hard to turn

the oil starvation will flog the turbo so the wheel will come into contact with the housing, if you disconnect the oil feed off the rear turbo and start it up you'll prob see no oil come out or the odd drop, you'll have to pull it apart and check and clean everything

If oil feedline blocks then it will seize while drain blocks will cause turbo to leak oil from all seals. It looks like the feed is blocked. Check the line and drill out the oil restrictor in its fittings.

wont be oil drain, its 4x the size of the feed.

feed will be blocked, meaning there is gunk elsewhere in the system most of the time... cause if there wasn't - how can it be blocked?

No I've got it all worked out if the turbo was seizing it wouldn't make boost its only making 0.6 bar so I'd say it's leaking somewhere one of the pipes meant to be 1 bar And now it's smoking like a bitch on boost I compression tested it and my results where this 50 55 75 100 100 125

Im sorry Ash, I've tried to stay out of this thread.

Your compression is wwwwwaaaaaayyyyyy f**ked.

Your motor has most likely sucked 1 of the 3 turbo's you have gone through.

You say you have it all figured out? I dont think you do. You need to go and buy another motor from the wreckers, this time you need to

  • Make sure you have a good fuel pump
  • Make sure you have working turbo's
  • Make sure you compression test the motor prior to dropping it in
  • Go and get a tune (for the love of god)
  • Don't come on here and ask for advice then turn around and say NO I have it all worked out. (very frustrating when you offer advice and it gets thrown in your face!)

So you had the same problem back in July? Or is this a new compression problem?

If it's a NEW compression problem i would suggest

1. Getting a better tune

2. Learning how to drive

3. Selling the car all together

now it's smoking like a bitch on boost I compression tested it and my results where this 50 55 75 100 100 125

after reading some of your posts I have to ask, how exactly did you go about doing the comp test ?

you say the rear turbo is the one that keeps blowing but the front 3 cylinders have the lower comp

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
