you can get brand new oem s15 turbo's for 800 on nissansilvia.com could be an option for you if the turbo is gone, straight bolt up too

overfilling the sump could have blown the turbo, if there is oil at the exhaust side of the turbo but not in the exhaust ports it is the turbo

I thought wankel boys liked a bit of oil smoke.

I used to play with my dipstick til one day it fell off

yeah im no mechanic but im learning and understanding more and more the more i get my hands dirty lol

still wondering if you know what the dipstick does........................................????

The oil probably would have ruined your cat

okay so after running the motor for 5-10 mins and the smmoke got a little too much to handle i shut her of n removed the exhaust pipes and turbos together, to my suprise the exhause ports are just black but the dump pipe was soaked in oil.

sooo... after realising i added nearly 4.5L of #OOPS# quality oil i drained her and filled half back into see if she still spits out oil, and she did spit oil but only when boost was up, i checked all my intercooler pipes but thre clean as new,but the rear of the turbo is just saturated in oil,this amount of oil can not pass the cylinder head this wet? so ive come to the conclusion its gotta be the turbo, because when i looked into the exhause ports i saw the exhause manifold was dry just like the head,my sparks were the same colour as my exhase ports with no oily substance..

sorry for the essay but i think its clear that im up for a bored out T25 ballbaring one,

if i had the entire exhaust system up with the cat on would this smoke reach out the tips at the end and pass the cat convetre?

my mrs's friend topped up her oil before driving to adelaide, was half way between empty and full... so she put the whole 5ltr bottle in....

blew rear main seal and dumped all the oil out... but no major damage.. on an oldish fwd lancer

anyway... thats unrelated



hows the turbo gonna blow smoke if its disconnected from manifold?, and how are you unsure how much oil to put in?.... from your comments I am concerned that you should not be trying to run the motor without turbo connected as I'm not sure you have the mechanical know how to do it without doing more damage.

i sincerely don't mean to offend you, but i don't want to make recommendations to try things if your potentially going to do more damage

if you had to much oil it'd be pushing pass the rings and you'd be getting a lot of blow by feel free to correct me if im wrong. i wouldn't pull anything off just make sure the correct amount of oil is in there and if it is still blowing blue smoke i dare say your up for a turbo rebuild
