G'Day Guys,

I have owned this car for about 9mths, but due to all kinds of things I've only just brought her back to Hobart.

I just drove on Sat from the boat to Campbell Town, Swansea, Hobart and BOY!!! what a FRACKING Buzz!!!!!

Absolutely the most fun I've had in a LONG time!!!

GOD DAMN the GTR-V's are sweet!!

btw its a 1995 GTR V spec TWIN TURBO with a 3.5in exhaust. I'm not as knowledgable as I should be, so pls excuse the non techness.

The factory rims were on for compliance, but the last pic is of the beautiful SSR 18" 10.5 Comp-X's are GOING back ON!!!

PS. Sorry for the bad photos, but the Skyline is buried in several other cars, so if someone wants to nick it, ya gotta break into 3 cars to get it out.....

Hey champ

welcome to the Tassie forums.

Car looks nice, have to get it out to a few of the meet ups so we can see it in the flesh and so you can meet all the other guys.

Have you bought an alarm yet and what option did you want with it???

Cheers GMB

Where and when mate? You might have noticed no plates as yet, should hopefully sorted that bull out tommorow. I think she'll be racking up some serious km's this week and I'll definitely be taking her out fri & sat night :)

On the alarm side its a DEI Viper and I want everything to protect my new toy.

    • Lamb roast on Saturday will be different 🥲
    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
