  1. yes it is a lag monster bushfire has not been fixed, motor is getting pulled out
  2. Blue is current tune Red was run in tune power comes on really late and really hard, between 4000 and 5000 rpm I pick up 82kw atw LOL!! was expecting a little bit more but by the look of how it just hold constant power up top and doesn't keep climbing says that something is holding it back. may be cooler or turbo.
  3. even with 4-8% leak down on the leak down test you would still say blow by? tuned by BPS it does exactly that when i engine brake, get on it again, big could of smoke
  4. Don't be dodgy, just pull the head off and take it to get reco'd. Will be worth it. or 3k for port, polish, oversize valves, aftermarket springs and HKS cams. 3k is alot of coin to lay down though
  5. its definatly oil man, my coolent temp enrich is high but its definatly oil. i did a compression test last night, compression was ok did a leak down test too only between 4-8% leak down which tells me its not glazed bores and not getting blow by. the spark plugs where nearly dripping of oil though and there was a pool of oil sitting ontop of the pistons its either valve stem seals or valve guides, id think? yeah its gotta be something in the head... like i said, your seals probably went hard from lack of oil for however long, and now they are shot. correct! dont want to do valve stem seals then find out the real problem is valve guides. but to do valve guides its a head off job Just pull the head off and do it all at once man so much effort cuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnttttttt. plus i wouldnt do it myself. thats one thing i havnt played with, thats heads. i like getting head though.....wait what

  8. ok last night i did a few things replaced pcv took off breather line to catch can - no oil took off catch can - no oil took off intake pipe before turbo - no oil took off intercooler pipe after turbo - no oil slightly more shaft play in turbo but not excessive ran the car with no breather line on and no filler cap - bit of air coming out of them but no more than to be expected and no smoke. it is looking promising that its not glazed bored and getting blow by tonight i will do a compression and leak down test on it
  9. ash, it will be the tuner i will be kicking in the nuts trent. cheers man i am going to do that tonight. very much sounds like blow by to me. im getting a compression test and leak down test done tomorow, fingers crossed :(
  10. from the sound of that and the youtube clips ive seen, its not turbo seals then. more so glazed bore than anything :( worse when cold because pistons havnt expanded yet, doesnt smoke after a thrash because piston are expanded, spitting out fuel out the exhaust because its hasnt been burnt in combustion because of blowby. FML if i have to rebuild this car again im going to commit suicide
  11. sweet mate, cheers for that. how much smoke was coming out of yours though? my turbo still performs like it always has boosts hard and comes on at the same time
  12. sure do man. may need to come over and do a compression test on it on the weekend mate, if thats cool I'll be up the sunny coast this w/e. you can come grab the tester off me during the week if you like what day do you leave, can i grab it after work friday then?
  13. sure do man. may need to come over and do a compression test on it on the weekend mate, if thats cool
  14. mick you have a compression tester?
  15. its worse when cold but still smokes when at operating temp. especially on back off or change of gears. head is only 4 years old with 20k on it but wasnt started for 1.5 years. turbo has unknown kilometers on it, off a 99 model 22B sti. still holds 20psi of boost till redline, still spools up as quick and still flutters the same I would be doing the turbo seals first, since thats easier. there is no replacement parts for my turbo and because its ball bearing its not rebuildable :( fail
