after a couple more hours swearing and grunting, a 6 pack, an angle grinder, 2 scissor jacks, and a borrowed welder. the rear cat flange lines up, and has been fitted. awesome.

yay dave

somehow my work location for today got passed on to everyone else that needed to know except me

i rocked up to st marys depot to only be asked by the contract supervisor why i wasnt at morphett vale. seems the people that needed to be told got told sans myself

many lols

so Dave would half your problems be due to you having a S13 turbo on your S14 and not actually Andrews dump pipe, to which someone told you to get a T25 turbo on your car :thumbsup::)

lol. i dont even know anymore. its done. nuff said. but the first dump and front were waaaaaaaay too long. ill be checking the numbers on the turbo again as soon as i can get my grubby mits on a scope.

The turbine housing on the T25g and the T28 are the same so the dump will fit both. When Andrew made up the exhaust what exhaust did you have on the car? I know that the fir instance the only difference between teh CA and SR dumps/ exhaust on S13's are the bolting pattern on the dump/exhaust so when you fit a SR exhaust on a CA you ahve to mod/rotate the cat flanges so they match up.

On a side note a mate is flying me to Melbourne on Wednesday to check this for him and drive it back if there's nothing wrong with it (he doesn't currently have a licence).

    • 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.
