um nah only had the car 4 2 weeks..hacnt had chance 2 get it dynoed......an yeah soon as i touch the throttle it blowws LOTS of smoke...an i mean LOTS.......it dont wait secons then come out..its as soon as u touch the throttle i comes out....

um i was gonna try 2 drive it but soon as i gave it sum gas 2 get going it jus blew like so much smoke out i wasnt funny i figured i was best left off......

an i dont know if turbo is blown or not..im gonn pull it off in the mornin an c.....how can ya tell by lookin at it.......an i think it is my turbo cause the cooler is filled with oil......

Your answer Chris

if its thrown the exh wheel of the turbo it wont smoke hard from a cold start untill the exh gets a bit warm and the oil starts burning in the exh housing and exh(couple of minutes). Happened on mine, spat the exh wheel out, no real smoke till it warmed up a bit and then massive plumes of white smoke out the exh under throttle

im assuming if its rings it'll smoke whenever theres pressure in the cylinder/s regardless of engine temp

ok then,

i have gone out 2 c the mess again this morning...... :) um i started it an put the foot down....the turbo spooled up an it blew whitey grey smoke......so wat is me best answer as 2 wat 2 do now.....??? thanx guys

white smoke is if the turbo is blown generally, blue for engine, black if ur running very rich.

Your basically describing white smoke as far as i can tell. (whitey grey). Does the turbo whine at all on boost? I'd get a bov as well even if it is stock. It may be stuffed rings but from what i was always told, blue smoke equals engine, white equals turbo. I suggest putting a bov on and borrowing another turbo from someone and giving that a quick try. I'd clean everything out first though.

Did u buy the car from anyone off here?

no smoke under the oil cap......

no smoke newere exept im masses out of my exaust... an turbo is throwing LOTS an mean LOTS of oil straight up the intake pipe an into the motor.....i took the cap of were the BOV is meant 2 b.....an as i reved it it threw like u buket load of oil out of the hole....

personally with how it looks..i reakon its a turbo seal has gone.....an its jus throwing all the oil up the pipes into the motor then the oil is burning an thats y it has so much smoke coming out....

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
