hey guys how's it goin, I had spoon itr pistons installed in my gsr a few weeks back. after working out a few bugs I think my car is running relatively good. one of my concerns is my oil consumption. I am pretty sure I am not leaking cause I went under the car and looked for leaks....found nothing. I also never see oil on the ground. My oil level consistantly goes down though. I heard that new pistons and rings will burn oil until they are fully broken in. I have 700 miles on the newly assembled motor. Do you guys think this is normal? How much longer should it go on? The car sounds/feels fine, the oil consumption is worrying me. TIA

i was burning oil after piston install also. I was burning oil up until 3000 miles after the rebuild. Now everything is fine

 

There are a lot of variables here, for example, what are you running for oil now?

i am running regular 1030 oil to break in then I'll switch to synthetic.

 

Rings installed right side up?
