Yea and a little bit of oil would drip into the housing and just burn. Smell it, it smells just like unburnt (as in uncycled through the motor, not like out of the back of a dodge minivan burning) oil. Did you used to have a 300ZX? I have a 91 TT actually, and LOVE it

i used to have a 300zx wayyyy back then, not anymore though, im trying to figure out why its smoking, im gonna try acouple of things today. play with the afc, and if that doesnt work, then im gonna swap out the turbo and try my friends turbo, if his turbo works fine, then i have a blown turbo.

removed the turbo, found out turbo seals are blown, oil everywhere, played with shaft and it was extremely crazy, borrowed friends spare t25 and installed with same setup, and it worked perfectly fine, runs fine, and i can full throttle, the blown one, i didnt even try to full throttle, when i reach almost half throttle it wants to die already ...

thanks for everyone that tried to help.

i really appreciate it.
