Message	I have owned my Z for 16 years. I have 265k miles on the original motor so I think I know how to drive and take care of my car. I got 200k miles out of the original stock OEM turbos and after 50k miles on Z1 rebuilt stock turbos with BRAND NEW GARRETT CHRAs I now smoke at idle stops. I asked Russell why and these were HIS responses..... 1 The quality of the Garrett CHRA is impeccable. 2 I'm driving it harder now. 3 I'm boosting more. 4 Oil contamination. 5 Oil starvation. 6 Too much oil pressure. 7 Some other issue but he didn't know what it is. I would rather hear crickets than the Obama blame game. [ http://twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2508035/I-would-say-its-likely-due-to-some-other-issue.html ]
