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

Yep Luke i need my guards rolled. I'll do it myself if I can borrow the roller? All you have to do is watch and drink the brews I'll supply for the borrowing. Have you got a heat gun to heat the paint? I have one if you need.

EDIT!!

Hey Jenkies, I see you lurking there. How's things been?

Lol lets group buy that shit up!! They only have like 2 left haha.

But if you think about it:

12k for the engine

$200? for the postage

2k for the labour to take out/install the new engine

$400 for a tune?

I'd say, if you had a lazy 16k, it'd be a good deal. And you get all the strengthened goodness of N1!

Lol it was a rough guesstimate!

Come to think of it now... even PFC tunes are more expensive :(

Edit: okay, so they're now 12999 and they're out of stock :(http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=334&page=1

How about a NUR spec engine? http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=334&page=1

Or maybe a craaaazy N1 engine? http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=334&page=1

I think there going to try and replace just the one that's not working for now and see how it goes. If it works then sweet.. I'm pretty sure I want to sell it so I don't want to spend heaps.

I could change my mind. Just dunnooooo

why you wanna sell up?

I want to go faster, I'm always using the best products and servicing it all the time at morpowa and I'm tired of spending shitloads on it when im not satisfied with its power.

If it was turbo I wouldn't mind forking the cash out. At the moment it just doesn't seem worth it. :(

Lol Damo, just noticed your Quad-Turbo car description in your profile! Does it make 2399kw at all 6 wheels? :(

Nah im running a conservative tune on 30psi, 1578rwkw. Getting tuned for E95 soon, apparently its 150 octane. Should see 3000kw at the wheels.

      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!?!?
