well i currently maintain my works website using a program thats pretty much halfway between notepad and word, not something id stick in my portfolio

thats worth putting in if you want to do webdesign. understanding HTML and XML and all the various standards is pretty much mandatory. Even better if you can get into Ruby On Rails, Perl, Php, SQL and the like... best to do some research and speak to a few people in different professions to find out what u want to do. Webdesign can vary from picture manipulation, to doing backend programming on large databases -very very different roles but come under the same banner.

SQL would come in handy with my current job, could write our own reports for the database instead of contacting Melbourne to get them done!

any of these worth doing? http://www.seeklearning.com.au/short-cours...phic-design.asp

theres alot of programs that make databasing easy (connecting it to your website etcetc)

my problem is, web standards.. :D stupid IE..

Don't know. are you any good with graphics manipulation already? Most short courses only teach you basic photoshop stuff, to be a decent web based graphical designer you'd be wanting to do at least a years worth of training - possibly at uni aswell...

Speak to some webdesigners first and go from there... SQL is programming, Graphic Design is as far away from programming as you can get. It all depends on your mindset, and whether or not you would enjoy either.

      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!?!?
