2jz oil coming out the overflows and smoking bad

V8 240sx? Sure! If either the chassis OR the engine is non-Nissan (i.e. SR20 in an RX-7 or LS1 in a 240sx), we've done it.

ok i recently bought a 2jzge and it has an oil leak out the top of the overflow when you rev it up or get on it when you drive. Also when it starts up it seems like it isn't running right and smokes like crazy. It currently has a t4 single turbo on it by the way. Any suggestions on what the problem is? Could it just be the turbo? Or is it rings?

somebody told me that it could just be that the turbo is messed up and blowing the air into the bottom of the oil pan making it come out. is this not true at all?
