That must be a head gasket issue surely the non turbos and turbo head gaskets are different, condensation in the engine?? REALLY.....

Try this mate when you open the boot with the catch which is the one on the floor by petrol catch make sure you push the catch back down, so catch up, boot pops open, then with your finger push catch back down see if that works
-
That's ok mate you might have to take the rad off if you got a standard rad in but as you got a V and I have a GT not sure how much space to have
-
Pretty easy to do mate turbo to downpipe nuts off air filter pipe off, oil return pipe off, and oil banjo bolt off, then turbo to manifold nuts off ones at the back can be a pain but be patient don't think I have forgotten anything else
-
These are fantastic alarms why it hasn't sold yet I will never know

Could always get an oil temp gauge and watch the temp on that

Absolutely gutted for you Mikey mate, once my car was run in I was gonna pop up to see you always had an interest in your car as you know as love the unique stuff you have done to it

Basically behind the rocker cover and in front of fuel rail you should have a long black rectangle plastic cover it unclips and in there you will have the injector loom wires and that's where the knock sensor wire should be, it should be a thick blue wire mate

Wouldn't even worry about it mate, I got friends with Scoobys and belong to a local just jap club, no one cares what people drive it's about taking part and being the person you are 👍 -
Well does seem like something's Rubbing there mate as you can hear on a more positive note at least the noise isn't knocking 👍
-
I would of definitely taken them wheels of mate and put a normal set on, the alloys must be worth 300 quid on there own
-
Check there isn't a break in the wire normally they break off in the injector loom bit
-
Bhex do not drive the car till it gets sorted, yes it could be the swtich but this happened to me once upon a time on idle the oil light was flickering, ignored it for a few weeks, bye bye engine time for a rebuilt so had my engine rebuilt from scratch Took of the sump and to cut a story short bearings/shells were fooked

Have you checked the dump valve hadn't got a leak?
-
Thanks ryan mate for the reply I did think of that but then though surely it couldn't but if it does like you say that's fantastic thankyou 👍
-
having to put my standard actuator back on for a while, but does anyone know about where the vacuum pipes go, On the standard actuator there are 2 ports I know one of them goes to the turbo but does anyone know where the other one goes to? As I haven't anywhere that it can go too. Thanks lads Pat

To be fair your mums got a point there 👍

That's very true mate, most are rust buckets these days and r32's are definitely my favourite skyline 👍
-
I suppose I need to know what the whole set up is first, as not sure what bits I need 👍
