ummm....just a thought.....have you guys stopped for a second and wondered if thread starter was actually being sarcastic :)

The question bro, is have you stopped for a second to think that the dude actually meant it... let's face it, for the coppers, the car is not too bad... I mean, it's not bad... quite nice... but I would say SUPERCAR... damn yo!

Guys, you got this all wrong!

It's not actually an XR8, it's just a police conspiracy to make it LOOK like an Xr8.

It's actually an experimental new police car... the XR9!

Yep, 9 cylinders. The extra one is usually turned off, but kicks in when at high speeds! Genius!

The thing on the roof is actually a remote control receiver. Police in a helicopter can manouver the car and ram your butt while they stay safely in the helo. It's also useful for freaking out the stoners who drive to Macdonalds at 4am.

Ok, so I'm bored. It's an Xr8. yay.

Almost makes me wish he's posted that jap skyline cop car again.

i used to work @ cartech (before enfield auto auctions went broke) where all nsw police vehicles were put together and all mods done to them.

theyre nothing special, just a xr8 with the so called "chip" installed. the "chip" is just another computer circuit board installed in them to wire up all the radars,terminals and other bullshit they have to run.

main problem they had was that with all the digital recording equipment they started using the cars were overloading and shitting themselves mid pursuits, which led them to install big arse capacitors to hold power in them during the chase.

drove a few cop cars through the yard and around the carpark area, when they came back to be stripped and sold as stock standard cars, they werent worth much anymore.

    • 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.

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @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.
