SO i need some f**king help, heres how it iz:

bought car after sitting 2 years and forged motor with 20k km on it, blown turbo rear housing (turbo removed & gone), seller lost interest and boought an f6.


came with an f6bb turbo i fitted and made lines n dump etc. I finally started it fine and then found it to be very smokey when revved. I pulled turbo intake off and BAM oil everywhere, took dump off and BAM oil everywhere.
runtime 5 min with 1mm restrictor. I figured well seals are f**ked for oil to get into front and back.
Prev owner said turbo only had 10k km on it and was very surprised & gonna look into it.

So i buy a r33 turbo just to get this car moving & regod and.............BAM same thing again oil in front and rear housing after few min startup and no restrictor and now im furious.....well at the time i was, but the guy gave me his word hed give me money back if it was blown as he didnt use that turbo.

NOW im thinkin do i have that bad a luck where i make 2 turbo setups work and there both f**ked ?? f**k this i should just buy a newby.

WHAT i did notice is with the r33 turbo the car was missfiring and i did notice oil was in cyl 5 from the looks of the head and manifold, so i checked the manifold from the f6 setup and there too was a bit of oil in cyl 5 there too, But surely that cant get into the front turbo housing.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK ?

a combination of 2 f**ked turbos and oil in cyl 5 like the head gasket is f**ked or what.



SO i got a r34 op6 and made sure it was not f**ked, guy showed pics of upgraded turbo he put on and stocky was taken off in running order with 140k km on it so today i hope to fit it and see what up !!! wish me luck f**kers

Peace

Was the oil in the exhaust manifold?

A bit on cyl 5 mate & im thinkin that cyl was the one not firing, i got plugz n stuff but need to swap plug tool tomoz for superchep.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
