on startup does look blue ish... but when revving it looks black,

and looking at the exhaust.

id check the fueling
sounds like its missing till its revved.

pull the plugs out, if there black sooty... its overfueling and carboning up the plugs

also check coil aswell

the car is mapped to run richer as its a method of cooling the pistons down, this is normal on all z22se sc'd cars..

the tips of the exhaust are black because they are painted black.

in 3 weeks it used 5L of oil that included 1 track day and some hard B road driving.

since then ive topped it back up and its not really used any.

its only just started doing this but as you can see from the vid (which will be here in a sec) it starts to die off but then it will come back if not hammered for a while.

stem seals is normally on overrun and not when accelerating which the video seems to indicate.

Not sounding/looking good. Sounds like valve stem seals or something similar. How many miles you done with the SC on?
