D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

Well, My car started to leak oil pretty bad about a week ago. I drive it a lot so I knew this day would come. I had to add a lot of oil to get back to school after spring break. It's just pouring oil out everywhere. Breather, dizzy seal, valve cover, oil pan, everywhere. My rings are toast, there is so much pressure that all my seals are just leaking oil. I have left drops of oil everywhere I go. And the smoke. The breather and exhaust pour smoke too. I drove it boosted about 15,000 miles from 5-13 psi at some points. My built motor will be in next week hopefully so it's no big deal. I mean, the car still drives, kind of... Pics.

This is just from being run 5 minutes, it leaked this much.

Re: D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

where do u think u went wrong

Re: D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

you don't have to worry about rust hahah

Re: D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

It's an old stock motor, these things happen. Nothing you can do about old rings except replace them.

Re: D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

What's your new setup going to be? :)

Re: D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

D16y7, Vitara pistons :P, LS rods, fresh rebuild. Same turbo kit and 15 psi >:D Motor is almost done.

Re: D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

how many miles did it have before u boosted it

Re: D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

145K, has around 160 now

Re: D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

When im on the highway doing long distances my car uses oil. 165,000 miles, 100mph for about 300 miles straight, I would use a little oil to. the car felt smother the faster I went so I just kept going faster :P

but to be serious, I leaked about that much oil about 3 weeks ago. no ----, it was up to a quart a day. i thought it was the infamous back left corner of the head gasket, so i put a new head gasket on it, still leaked like a mother fucker. (i couldnt tell exactly where the leak was because no down pipe was sprayin oil EVERYWHERE under the hood) so after that, i was still leaking oil, so I took some advice to put a new valve cover gasket on (not the insta-gasket ----) so i did that, and no more oil leak! yeeeeeaaa! (BTW, a valve cover gasket from honda is cheaper than napa and advance auto. they wanted like $4X dollars, honda wanted $12, but i had to wait 2 days to get it)

this weekend will be a another big weekend for my car. im getting a down pipe, new tires, a blow off valve, and some uber love.




then im going to japan. :P

Re: D15, rise and fall *pics*
 

If I get it in by the meet then I will definitely enter race wars, don't know if I will be done then though. I just went out and ripped it. Smokecreen but she still holds 10 psi 8)
