Hi,

Recently purchased a 200SX, with some mods done, and wanted to get a dyno run in before i did any more mods to the car. I know it has a SR20DET and not a RB series engine so its cool if I'm not welcome to attend.

Also - just to be extra difficult - I start work at 230pm on the Gold Coast that day... So if its possible to be slotted in before 1pm'ish that would be awesome.

So can I come along?

Side question - cos im a noob and never had a dyno run - do you guys worry about ambient air temps for dyno runs? Like if its a really hot day, you'll only run 14psi instead of 17psi etc.

Yes by all means, this is an open dyno day. All makes and models... More than 90% of the cars on the rollers will be skylines, but your more than welcome to come along. Just read the first post and when your happy give us the nod and your in...

As for running early in the day thats not an issue, we will fit you in before 11am so you have plenty of time to take off when needed...

As for the boost setting, you said your car is slightlly modified. At 17psi I hope you have aftermarket fuel management, injectors, z32 afm and an aftermarket turbo... Cause if your running 17psi on any stock components your gonna blow your engine up within 4000-5000km's...

I always say run the boost your management is setup to handle... I wont be turning mine down thats for sure... :)

also ... how do I upgrade the motor where my avatar should be from an RB20E to an SR20DET? :)

Please in future post these sorta questions in the help area of the forum, not in the middle of a dyno day thread... Thanks

Most ill run is 15psi... I was kinda refering to you big boys with your big toys :) Actually 1/2 the reason for wanting the dyno run is before i do something about the engine management.

Please in future post these sorta questions in the help area ...
:happy: sorry.

So yes put me down and ill internet transfer the money on the 1st or 2nd of the month after I get paid.

Josh has lead a sheltered life...

Geebung/Virginia are no worse for crime that Noosa or the gold coast... The people who live in the area are generally working in the industries based in virginia.

So they are hard working families and yes I would feel comfortable walking through there at night... Its probablly safer than hastings street or cav ave...

No mase required... Just Josh is scared of everything out side Noosa...

You know i'm just playing :happy: I'll give you a hug at the dyno day to make up for my naughty talk of Geebung :)

P.s, speaking of crime, someone broke into my little red swift.... Took the head unit and amp :yes: Damn Noosa and our high crime rate!

OK

Time to ramp up the payments people...

2 weeks till the payments close... I have re-done the list on the first page of the thread, remember your spot is not secured until payment is verified by SMR33... First 40 payments are locked in as a 100% run...

      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!?!?
