First...welcome.

Second...is it steam or smoke? Does it blow smoke or steam at idle? Does it use water? Bubbles in the radiator once it's up to temperature? What condition is the turbo in?

[brettdodds88]

thanks mate good site real handy...um no its white smoke at idle i open the oil cap and it comeing from there to and i can here a blog blog blog whan stroking iv put a new head gasket on to and its not over heating or lossing water...thanks for the reply so quick

Turbo oil seals may be gone. I'd pull it off and get it looked at. Check for oil in the housings.

yeah mine has a similar issue to this.. i've yet to pull the head of mine as when i do ill prob just go to twincam setup. but i believe its either your valve stem seals or as mentioned turbo seals.. i've ruled out turbo seals on mine as turbo is relatively new. but you never know.

[brettdodds88]

hope not the turbo seals because iv looked around for a seal bearing kit and there nothing the same around for myn (tc05 12a) well the guy that i got it off said the turbo was freshly rebuilt...hmmmmm...well got a nice bloke helping me out with a reco bottem end thanks heaps to him...its a pain in the ass hay mate bloody oil...so im going to keep it now and get this bottem end and a new head and new turbo so i hope that solve's me problem.because its going to cost around $2950 tops to fix my motor up...thanks guys

i wouldn't bother rebuilding the turbo - you can get another one of those fairly cheaply - i think there is one for sale in the for sale section at the moment?

[GormzZ]

why settle for a standard replacement when you can go bigger? ;)

[thrash]

cos for some people, standard power is plenty.. and the standard budget blow out is more than plenty rofl

Sounds to me like you have a breather line blocked or plumbed to a boost pipe ... if your turbo is ok that is.

iv blowen threw all of them but fuk man i do not no what this guy that i brought it of done to it...iv pulled it apart and well the head gasket was bernt out big time it bernt threw the silver rings on the head gasket all of them and it was only on the car for 4days only drove it like 4times with the new head gasket...but i have seen on here that bruzman who i got the car off wonted to play with the r/l screw on the curby so there's the problem of my head gasket going like it is all the time because the old one was the same...so im going to put in the shop when i sort the motor out for a good tune up...thanks guy's :)

c'mon thrash you can't honestly say that standard power from a starion is plenty... :P. the bigger the better i say, even if its just a gt28 or gt30r. Cause if his has been rebuilt or whatever then should be able to take it.
