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

Contact Smooth Garage and speak to Niko, tell him Kye sent you to him.

They would have HEAPS of CA parts laying around. Niko just finished ripping out his old CA so you might be in luck.

yeah Chris cant answer that one i would depend on the assessor on the day and all sorts of contributing factors

i was making a point that if they deem that mod to of caused the accident its highly likely they will void your insurance

Thats a genuine possibility, but generally if you have your modifications performed by an accredited mechanical workshop (and have reciepts to prove it) then you're fine.

If you've done something like welded a diff or chopped springs etc, then its very possible that they'd use those as an excuse to at least reduce the payment

Best to call the insurer in either case and see what they will and wont insure... and if they do, get it listed. Its worth paying the extra $20-50 per year if it keeps you completely covered.

anyone got a plate for a stock bov wanna have some mad flutter styles yo before I leave adelaide :blush:

all you need is a coke can mate

not hard at all and i think that there is a DIY thread somewhere

goodluck and it seriously takes 5 mins if that

unbolt the bov, cut a coke can and lay it flat, so you have a sheet of metal. then trace the bov on the coke can, and the bolt holes. cut out the holes for the bolts and put the can sheet in between the bov and the flange.....and bolt it all back up nice and tight.....presto u got flutters

      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?
