Im guessing it was overfilled by atleast 2 ltrs but it was never blowing as much snoke the. Last couple of days so doesnt make sence.

We will see soon what happens but atm still no idea

You must have some idea.

It's either due to your crazy overfill.

Or engine has busted some ring lands

Or turbo seals have gone.

As discussed in this thread.

Oil dipstick being forced out also sounds like excessive crank-case pressure build up.

Could be worn rings creating excess crankcase pressure or blocked breather setup not allowing crank to breathe.

Excess crankcase pressure could also cause oil seals to leak..

Ok my comp were 160s across the board.

I changed oil put oil thickner in it and it stopped blowing blue smoke under boost only sometimes and now it just blows on idle when revving blue smoke occurs and when coming of the excellerator underload it blows blue smoke

Its now blowing alot of black smoke and big flames and all of a sudden theres no performance in second gear!

Third gear is coming on boost but not as it use to very slow and not as crazy. My dipstick is blowing anymore and i checked my pcv hoses including one to the turbo and theres only a smir of oil but theres smoke coming out of the hoses have no idea what that means but no oil at all? Im leaning towards turbos only because the performance of the car is really bad and it all of a sudden running really f*kn rich?

Any thoughts i will not purchase a catch can if theres no excessive oil coming out the breather system. Maybe valve stem seals?

Any ideas im leanig towards turbos guys but again therre was only a smir of oil in the intercooler pipe nothing crazy

Yeah maybe you should stop driving it so much while there is a definite issue with the car, you could have even destroyed the turbos running that much boost. Park the car up and remove the intercooler piping to the turbos and have a look there like the guys have said. There shouldn't be very much oil but if there is pooling there that is your issue. Pull the dumps off at the rear of the turbos and have a look in there as well, you might be missing the exhaust wheel on one turbo. If you haven't got the mech know how to get that done just tow it to your mechanic and leave it there until it is diagnosed. It's not worth destroying your engine by running it and trying to boost while you have some major oil issue.

Ok i am guessing it is valve stem seals as comp test shows all same readings across the board.

Turbors are very non responsive but still making boost just not as aggressive so thats 1 problem but im saying valve stem seals purely because it now happebs in 3gear and 4 th when i give it to about 6-7000rpm abd deexcelerate and let the rpms fall smoke gushess out everywhere like a bush fire abd its blue. Its there when im boosting it but jot as much as when im deexcelerating the car so my gues is valve stem seals i put oil thickner with 10/40 and did nothing at all?

Nothing no smoke when i remove cap or dipstick! When i remov the hoses for pcv system i see smoke coming out of the hoses?

Just a bit like very little smoke.

I will rip of all the piping tonight and look closer to the intrcopler for oil because i removed the big ass intercooler pipe near the Y pipe and smir of oil pn the pipe so thats why i discard it from being turbos though ill take of the pipe to the cooler and see if its all hanging down there i want an excuse to go single loll

The fact it doesnt do it on idle when cold shows me its only on revving down from high rpm and underload on boost and on idle when revving it!

I dont think turbos it might be but i dont think so there was a smir of oil in Y pipe i think valve stem seals or maybe a piston ring landin

The pinging was only here and there maybe happened 5times worse was 109 on knock sensor but after i changed spark plugs and drove it around stopped happening doesnt happen in any gear now?

Smoke accured after laat drive on sunday

Valve stem seals tend to show when you have let the car sit for a bit then take off. Does it blow smoke on startup after leaving the car for a few hours? If not I highly doubt it's valve stem seals.

Also I wouldnt be putting oil thickiner in an engine that takes thin fully synthetic oil

Cylinder comp test on cold i just did one on warm showed those results im not to worried about 1-5. They all show same its number 6 at 70. Now the question remains why it happened and what part went wrong and do i blame my tuner it lasted 2 days of dyno

    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
