or i couldve just sucked at fitting it last time. ha. ill borrow a scope from dads work and have another look. are the rear housings the same size between 25/28's?

edit, more quick research, 25's have .80 rears, 28's have .64's, definitely remember mine being .64, so i dont have a damn clue how or why it didnt fit before.

Post up a picture of the turbo and or the ID plate and i'll let you know what it is. It shouldn't be a T25 on a S14 only the S13 and 180sx SR's came with a T25G

i would, but everythings back together. fairly certain its a 28. but ill get dad to bring a scope home from work and ill post the numbers i find.

I did too, we had a chat about it and he's pretty much committed to getting it right. Don't get yours done this Saturday OK.... I want mine fixed then :D

yeah nah. 4 weeks is a long enough wait to get my car back on the road, you can wait. :blink:

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • 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.
