really huh? Sounds major....The head is getting sent to enginering once my cams arrive. i hope there is a possible way around it and not have cost sky rocket at the same time. Is there anything even wrong with aluminum lifters anyway? It has a rb30 bottom end reving to 8k rpm max although power goal is 650rwhp...

cheers

too late now, but u sholda really sold ur neo head and bought a 26 head to start with

buying a rb26 head has been suggested although many of my parts are for the NEO head. Is there any reason why nissan only gave it 12 steel and not all of them? I am concerned about reliablity issues pushing big power.

depending what size cams u use, tomei recommened u use their lifters for the bigger cams

an extra ~$350 for brand new lifters isnt that much more to the total bill for a good quality build for decent hp, which is gonna be in excess of 20k+ anyway

do it the first time, do it properly

it has rb30 bottom end with a t04z with 1.00 a/r, valve springs, guides, port & polish, plenum etc...I did the reasearch and asked questions. Lift bigger then 9.3 will not fit a NEO head. Pon 260 are the closet. Rev will be set at 8k rpm.

The exhaust lifters arent aluminium but are titanium from memory.

NEO lifters are overhead shim, as opposed to RB26 which are under shim.

The lift issue has nothing to do with clearence problems, but is to do with the position of the lifter oil feed gallery that runs the length of the head. If the lifter is pushed down too far ( ie big lift cams ) the oil gallery is exposed and you end up with no oil pressure in your head. So there is a limit to the amount of lift that can be run when using the std lifters.

Thats an urban myth if your referring to the R33 VCT head, as the valve stems and lengths are different sizes, the guides are different, the springs are different . With major mods it can be done but it would be a pointless exercise and cheaper to buy a RB26 head.

If you know the right combo you can use almost all GTR valvetrain parts in RB25s.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.

      I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
