Hi all,

Many of you have been following a couple of our Project Cars that we have been working on, in-house at Just Jap Racing over the past few years, particularly Darrons BNR32, which was previously Gun Metal Grey, so I thought I would put up a thread with some of the progress pictures showing the final result of the cars recent repaint and exterior update.

Inspired by the R35 GTR, we chose to paint the car in R35 Titanium Grey, and we are fairly certain that this is the first car in the country to be repainted in this specific colour though we have no doubt others will follow :D

The paintwork was handled by Andy at Complete Smash in Sydney (02 9521-3933) and we are delighted with the results.

We took the chance to replace all the original perished window seals and rubbers with Brand New Genuine items for a quality result

We hope you enjoy the before and after shots.

Before - Standard Bodywork - Factory Gunmetal Grey, finished off with 18" URAS NS-01's

After - Complete Refinish in R35 GTR Titanium Grey

We went for only subtle upgrades to the actual bodywork so as not to ruin the R32 GTR classic lines, so we added N1 Side Skirts, and finished the car off with R34 GTR wheels which perfectly compliment the colour, and an SRI Carbon N1 Boot Lip and SRi Carbon N1 Front Bar Vents.

For anyone interested we have a stack of brand new Carbon Fibre Gear now available so don't forget to check out our website.

More updates to come.

Thanks to all for your support - We hope you enjoy.

Cheers,

Steve Thatcher

Due to the number of pm's and requests we have had from customers of late, we are also now stocking a lot more Carbon for a variety of models.

More updates to come hopefully today showing the repainted RB26 engine covers which we had done in the same colour as the bodywork, and finished the coil pack cover off with an HKS valley badge.

Cheers guys, and thanks for the feedback.

      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.

      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.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      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!?!?
