went to the track.

[MEXTIVA]

I loaded the slick's for the Nissan GTR 18" 325 rear and 275 fronts,
2 jack's,15 gallons of racing fuel,tools,festiva slick's.
And a passenger.
So we drove about 30 mins and the car starts bogging.
I pulled over and one of my intercooler hose came off.I saw oil
Around it.put it back on and still bogged.got to the track and puled
My sparkplugs.the first 2 starting from driver side had oil on them.
I'm not sure if its coming from my valve cover leak,head gasket or rings.
I run the car and hope not to break it,it went 13.218 @ 101 with a 1.8 60 foot.
I will do a compressipon test soon and take it from there.
It barely made it back home.ill get pics tonight.

Nice short time!

[MEXTIVA]

Ran 5 times,my brother ran 13.6 I think all others were 13.2@100 101.

[MEXTIVA]

Getting the car ready weeks before, thank's sam.

I added alot more stuff in there.


at the track!

Is your crank vent from the valve cover to the turbo inlet pipe still stock or do you have a catch can? Tweak will fill the turbo and charge pipe with oil without a catch can if I go long times under boost or up hills. It then fouls the plugs and runs like $#!+. My home made catch can is my temporary fix (made it from air compressor dryer I got from the trash at work) but a tighter engine is the proper solution (I built tweaks engine very loose, and it has huge ring end gap so there is a lot of blow by).

[MEXTIVA]

no catch can,so its possible to foul the plugs with oil?
my valve cover is leaking alot of oil and i replaced the gasket not long ago.i think i need to replace the gromets to make it tighter.or add silicon.

Yeah oil will spoil your fun for sure. I bet that is a big part of your problem. You probably have a lot of blow by, that would aggravate the valve cover leak, and it's pushing oil out your crank vent and into your turbo where it's being mixed with air and shoved into your engine. One thing you need to be cautious about too is that your not over filling your engine with oil. I run tweak an eighth inch below the full line on the dipstick. Because the b6t doesn't have a very effective windage tray in the oil pan, the crank will pick up oil at high rpm and sling it. This causes the oil to actually saturate the air in the engine which will exit out the crank breather in the valve cover. You'll want to put a catch can between the valve cover and the intake pipe. Don't run one that is vented to atmosphere unless you are running aftermarket engine management with a map sensor. I've also found that running 20/50 weight synthetic oil helps a lot too. I have almost 20k miles including close to 2000 track miles on a sloppy b6t, so I've learned how to live with it.

[MEXTIVA]

Cool,thanks.
I like to have my oil level.I'll try the 20/50 and add a catch can to see what it does.
there is oil coming from my blow off valve aswell,I will do a compression test anyways.
it wasn't doing this before so it's not normal for me.

[MEXTIVA]

Installed the catch can and switched to 20/50 oil.drove the car about 50 miles,I still need to sort some things out.its running rough,i'll get a cap and rotor next, grommets are on.raceland coilovers and a-arms,bushings and tie rods also.I sold my wheels to Sam and he gave me he's daisy's.

Here is a video from last time I was at the track,I had shot kyb on civic coilovers from ebay.it was nasty,still pulled 1.8 and 1.9 60 foots.it looks like my pass. tire come's off the ground.

That thing hooks hard! My car should be running by today.

Great,let us know how it drives with your transmission swap.

[Damkid]

That thing definitely hooks up awesome!! I'm guessing they prep the track pretty good there as well?

Yeah,there was an event and test and tune.lots of fast cars so it was prepped good,My car hooks nice though,I have been to other tracks and 1.9 60's are no hard to get.
