Shit news mate, the luck of the draw sometimes

I got pulled over at an RTB on Monday in the GTR, no cats no mufflers :/.. Managed to get away without being inspected.. Even after I left my wallet and lisence at home :/

  • 1 month later...

so is it not illegal then to have the highmount gear? im just wondering what the go is when you get pulled over, sounds like its just for noise and emissions then..

100% of the time it will be exhaust. 90db is crazy quite and anyone with a non standard exhaust won't pass.

Then BOV and intake mods ie: exposed pod filter.

Then you are almost certainly going to be given an inspection notice. This is when things the police didn't find the DECC inspector will find.

If you use common sense you will know what he will and won't pick so be prepared before you go.

And no, high mount setups themselves are not defects.

    • 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.
