LOL.

Didn't want to neglect to mention you might need more ventilation, as normally on a fresh rebuild, it's something stupid like this - it's called POSITIVE crankcase ventilation for a reason ;)

Catch can + proper vacuum - or an evacuation system - will do the trick for you.

WTF is exactly half assed!!!! I have spent alot of time with this motor and have done many things that I have read on these forums and from many people that have lots of experience with the MK3. The only thing that I need now is the PCV system that needs to be fixed. LMK, WTF you have done to your car and why are you so almighty. I'm just on here trying to get help with my setup. How many 12 sec timeslips do you have with your supra?? I have tried to take all the right routes to making sure that I can have a properly running supra. If I have done something wrong or something doesn't add up from the crappy cell phone pick I took just ask!! I am here for advice not for dumb asses like yourself and others, to just rag on me. I haven't been rude to anyone so far and don't expect you to be rude to me without even asking any questions first.

12 seconds? Sorry, it takes longer then that to go around a road course. ;)

Sounds like your intentions are OK, you just need to add a little more salt to the advice you take. A great example apparently was Trent.

Have you seens Trent's car on 7mpower.com, His car is the one that you see when you go to mvpmotorsports page. He is also a Mod over on SF, I took his advice because he know what he is talking about.

I don't plan on posting here any more anyways after this thread! so it's all good with the salt!

Easy tiger. Just don't jump ship due to one or two members rubbing you the wrong way.

If you think sf.com is better, I hope you have a mk4 in your back pocket.

Care to explain why/how this works best? I'm just VERY curious.

Marc3's way is the proper way to do it, but what do you guys suggest for those running an FFI with throttle body that has not vacuum port like the stock TB? Mine is set-up like marc's graph, except for the TB port connection.

Thanks

Relax take a deep breath and settle down.

No need for name calling people are going to express an opinion no matter where you post you need to get a little thicker hide.

So essentially there is no longer any vacuum being applied to the crankcase?

More like your crankcase has become a compressor and it's blowing your oil past the rings. Probably due to ring and cylinder wear. Leak down test outta confirm this.

Time to reach for the wallet.

If the rings didn't seat right after installation (it happens) then blow by is pretty common, unfortunately even in a relatively new engine. I'd have a talk with you machinest.
