Ok, I know i asked the same question about Carizma, and got some good feedback, actually I have placed an order with Joe anyway, one of the old partners as he has left carizma. But i went for a cruise past Power Rd Carsales just for a sticky beak coz there cars are advertised quite cheap. But now i know why, they seem to be very very average cars, most of them seem to have really done the miles, everything on the inside was worn on nearlly all the cars. Well thats what i thought anyway. Also being an ex spray painter i did notice that quite a few cars had had a accident at some stage in there life

What do you guys think of them?

And i wont go into JSA cars, Got ask myself why are they all re-sprayed???

I did not like them at all. Most of the cars looked pretty average and the guy there was.... to say the least un-professional. Looked like he hadn't showered in weeks was in this crappy lil office with a broken air con and had that whole im gonna roll this guy for his money with a dud car look smeared all over his un shaven face. Wasn't a help either at all. Kamikazi motors is the goods, i got my car from the nunawading branch.

R33silverS2 is spot on, i have found kamikaze to be excellent. if i was ever to buy an import, i would definately be headin straight for them

i have nothing to say about the actual business, but when i was looking for a car about 3 years ago, coming from out near the melbourne airport to see a car he had, he neglected to tell me that his price didn't include compliance on the phone

you can imagine how annoyed i was when i had just driven 1.5hrs for nothing...

doesn't say much for customer service

      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!?!?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
