hey guys

i know this is a frequently asked question, have done forum search but cant find exact answers!

so hear goes!

my jap spec tt has done 60.000 miles now!

have been getting intermittant blue/white smoke from both banks, mainly on idle and have been told a load of c==p comes out the back when i boot it! its as it someone drips a v small amount of oil into exhaust!!

2 months ago took balance pipe off to find alot of oil in manifold! so i changed pcv valves and hose to go to each one! but also de=catted at the same time!!!!! smoke still seems to be no better, if any thing now more constant,

is there any thing else to check before i get some turbo's????

if its turbos can they really be done in situ, i would rarther struggle and do them in place! looks like if i remove steering rack and lower column i should be able to get to them!

are hybrid tubs any bigger boddied than standard??

looking for good spool up and running 400 bhp approx, would the cheaper 1-2 stage tubs be good???

 

sorry for long message and all the questions just need to get it right first time!

cheers for any help guys!!!!!! :bow:

Could be the tubs, first i would have said the oil seals but if you done them then it points to them. Ask most garages that work on zeds everyday and they will all say the same, its easier to remove the engine to replace the tubs, and quicker. Smithy does some good value tubs so might be worth giving him a shout.

HAVE ALREADY PM ED SMITHY.

DOING THE WORK MYSELF, OWNING MY OWN GARAGE AN ALL, TAKING ENGINE OUT JUST SOUNDS TRICKY WAY OF DOING IT! THATS NORMALLY MY LAST RESORT!!

I asked the same question, cos me and my dad took my engine out and all the garages said that it is technically possible but hard work. It took me and my dad about 7 hours all together
