[White-ish bue-ish smoke after hot]

Coolant looks ok( I dont think it ran long enough to notice, I change the coolant 15 miles ago), but is doing something that could be a sign of a head gasket failure, whe the t-stat open, I get consistant bubble coming from the radiator opening( where the cap goes), the head gasket I used was used( never gave me the confidence that it was good to use, even if it is a metal material) I do have arp studs.

 

So if is the head gasket why it only smokes when is warm??? I cant figure this one out.

 

Thanks for the inputs.

[White-ish bue-ish smoke after hot]

Yes, after having my car tune with sds i have experience a few problems, 5 days ago started smoking(also missing at all RPMs), is a white with blue smoke mix after the engine was warm and at running temp, I did a compression test and it all came out at 150 psi( the compression test was performed with the engine cold), change the plugs and still the same, I dont suspect the turbo to be bad because it got rebuild 200 miles ago, just wanted to post up my problem and see if anyone had the same problem or have seen anything like the problem I currently have, thanks for the inputs.

[Drove a gt500! :)]

Yeah, they are quick, in 07 I got a ticket in one of those, I used to work for a ford dealership and drove most of the new gt500 just for the heck of it, now I work for nissan and I have to say the gtr is twice more fun.

[Where to find OS GIKEN parts???]

OS Giken has kind of washed its hands with the S30. In fact you ask them about the car in general, and they clam up.

 

I think I saw an Giken TO Bearing just the other day. If you want I'll check?

 

B.

 

 

If you could, that would really help me out.

[Where to find OS GIKEN parts???]

There's this think called Google that helps you find little tidbits like this:

It has to be 12 links apart front cam to cam, or use the marks like you got them, there is another mark on the bottom, I dont know if you have the front cover on but I like to take it of when doing timing on sr20.
