a certain someone just above you that you and I did the brakes for may have some for sale.....remember

lol blue mesh, reminds me of something like 5 years ago, PK's 33 in SCS when it was back at immanuel college, won an award for something and all it had was the plates and blue mesh from what i can remember.

Back when SCS was a good show.

good deal there, nice set too! how do you go about getting wheels shipped to aus?

ive been looking through jap auctions a fair bit but have nfi how to get them sent here or by who or how much haha.

haha, ole Anthony Chucky Norris is a good lad....I reckon Adelaide Engine was his very 1st job, when he was just a snotty nosed little kid.

Has he kissed and made up with his brother yet?

ummmm....no, unfortunately not...Paul is doing well though, he usually comes out with me on drives but he had to fix a car at his joint..He's working for himself as a milky now..his own hours..his own boss....Chucky (or FUNKY as we call him...long story) is still plodding along down at Grand...still unmarried..still playing the game like some 22 year old..lol

So you've replaced a dodgy set with another dodgy set? Buy some Splitfires, if the issue persists then you can rule out coilpacks.

As for the bolt, depending on where it snapped, use a set of pliers, wrap it around the thread of the bolt and work it out that way, done that before on my car, easy as piss.

Id rather find what the exact problem is rather than waste $600 on something i didn't need in the first place. If it is coilpacks, then ill replace them, but the set i had spare, i had no idea of the condition. The bolt has nothing left to grab with pliers, so ill have to take the cradle out.

    • 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?
