It was freaking awesome sunny for the whole weekend. One 31 spun a bearing in qualifying but there was still one left with a DR30 in the races as well. The sound of the cars is music to my ears i absolutely love them. Got a few happy snaps of them belching out flames, and some video footage. And well done for taking out 1st place on the 2nd race. Weekend was won by glen seton in a mustang. For everything else there was GT-40's old school holdens and fords it was great was well worth it. You guys missed alot.

Always a good time at the Historic race meet , I was driving another GTR with a holden's badge and had a successful weekend of racing . 2 x 5th places on Saturday and 10th , DNF and a 2nd in the handicap race on Sunday.

If anyone is looking for some great track tyres , try SILVERSTONES, gave me 0.6 sec a lap faster ( 1:04:22).

Got to take some pics of Croup C & A races . Helped a mate out (1.00am every night for the last week) building the Escort in the last photo for his first race meeting , very pleasing to see it finish every race and go quicker and quicker each time out . Glenn Seton was driving the Mustang.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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. It just states that 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!?!?
