^^ yeah the R32 was only a GTSt and barely modded whatsoever. Bizarre to put such a car in a show at all.

For those that didn't see it in the flesh, enjoy the new GTR below :P I am currently uploading a 50Mb video of the GTR promo video from the motorshow - the quality is not fantastic as I am videoing an LCD screen, but you get the idea.

sorry, there were no decent chicks there. The Misti ones were ok, but well overdressed, and yes the Kia chick had giant hooters (but large everything else too IMHO). Poorest promo chick car event EVER.

I spoke to the guy at the Nissan stand and asked if any had been imported.

His reply was that if the car isnt bought in by Nissan Australia then it could only be used as a track car (ie non compliable) and that Nissan wouldnt even sell the owner an oil filter unless they can provide the VIN to confirm its an Australian released car.

I mentioned that nearlyt every time I go to get a part for my skyline they end up importing it anyway, so I doubted it would cause much grief for an owner as Nissan Japan would sell the parts, and that the Tuning houses in Japan offer more aftermarket support anyway. He had to agree, but wasnt happy LOL

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

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

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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. It just states that 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!?!?
