Supercharger using oil

[Andy from the block]

Ive got a AE101 GTZ that is using up S/C oil.
I filled it up and within a tank of gas the dipstick reads low/near empty again.
I also lost a little boost when the oil runs low aswell, when oil was full I got close to 9psi when oil is low I get close to 8psi.
What could be wrong and what can be done to fix it?
cheers.

is the sc making any funny noises

take the intercooler off and check if there is any oil in there u might have a pooed seal or pulley bearing fix this now if you do find that it is these prob it will cost you a crap load trust me been there done that

Ditch the supercharger, and whack a turbo on. There goes your oil usage usage problem, and you get a few more horse in return

Ive recently changed my pulley bearing so I dont think its that.
SC doesnt make any 'funny' noises other than the normal sound that other S/C cars Ive been in make.
The intercooler is clean, not really any oil or anything.

who did you get to change your pulley bearing because i couldn't even find a supplier for the bearing and then was told by someone (on here cant remember who) that they werent made to be removed?

true the bearings " look like they can not be removed but the can be with a bit of mucking around its held in to by two plastic pins that you can pull out

I got Bazda to do it for me...he didnt have any problems.
He had a spare one from his AE92 GTZ cuz he went turbo.
..anyway back to my original topic...what should I do to fix my s/c using oil? what shod I check or look out for?

I just checked the intercooler and yeah it has little puddles of oil..
How do I know what I need to replace?

[FLAWLES]

nine times out of ten it would be oil just sillping past the bearing when hot but serously you mite have to take the sc off to cheak the play in the pulley bearing thats the most comin bearing to fail
its going to be a lot of messing around for piss all but hey its going to save you some cash
