Glen, so what were your times for the day?? How did the car feel compared to the GTR??

pete, i think he was about 1-2 seconds off his gtr time... the integra is quite a nifty package.

i take it ur the man who wrote a little 'message' on his windscreen? :laugh:

you would be correct haha, a little tongue in cheek... don't get me wrong. they are a sweet car, it's the instant status some think they attain by driving one.

and what da fark were you driving?? lol

<--- see there. not really that quick, just quicker than some... it's a little friendly rivalry.

Sprint - 1:06:xx (one sec behind my GTR)

Clubman - 1:09:xx (match my GTR)

pretty happy with the times considering its not too far off from my previous GTR. Had shitty tyres on so i was pretty much sliding around the corners :thumbsup:

i need semis :whistling:

God I slept well. I was torched after the day. If any one from here took any photos, it would be good to see them posted up.

I glazed my front discs. They somewhat resembled titanium discs, lol, if there was such a thing. Went and had them cut again this morning but still squealing a little when coming to a stop. Checked the brake pads also but no heat cracks and still a lot of pad there. Time for a set of slotted and cross drilled, to see if they make a difference. Also now in the market for a decent oil cooler and remote oil filter package.

I'll work on getting pics & vids up over the weekend - I drove in the morning so got a few decent skyline pics - didn't get one of the fuel pump sled down pit lane though :)

I tell you what, he was very lucky there was no fire created from that. Especially when he did realise what had happened and he got out of his car to spray it with his extinguisher and it didnt work. Very luck indeed.....

Hmm, pretty good times. Talk about semi's. I'd love to have some for the next track day. I am hoping the wife will release strangle hold on my proverbials so I can make it to the next one. Mind you, having 2 little people in the family does make life much more hectic.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

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

      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.

      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!?!?
