Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

The series 1 VL block doesn't have any oil, coolant ports on the side of the block, nor a return point. They were all blank when they were casted. The series 2 and the R31 RB30 blocks are identical in the fact they have the Plugs in all the feed points. Km's wouldn't phase me either on these blocks as they are brilliant castings. Pulled the head off a clapped out rb30 with 440,000km on it only to find it still had original hone marks on the bores. You wouldn't go to the trouble of twincaming an rb30 without a freshen up anyway.

Wow! A lot happened on the SAU-SA soap opera today. I knew I should have set my video before going to indoor soccer.

So let me get this straight:

Cruises have finished? :O

SAU gangs have formed? ;)

Police are to be notified everytime we start our cars? :)

And everybody here has sand in their...body? :P

You all make me LOL! Thankyou. Peace.

RIP ... Wendy Van Gasteren

http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0...008-910,00.html

Killed 2 years ago today at O'Halloran Hill by motorcycle colliding with a pedestrian and then traffic behind not seeing her.

Was one of the best friends, neighbour, riding buddy you could ask for.

A tragic loss to the motorcycling community in Adelaide, who co-coordinated with me a few awareness programs. Not forgotten.

Ride safe, drive safe.

;)

      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.

      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!?!?
