As for solid lifters. The only ways to convert to solid is to go with a manufacturer that makes a conversion kit. I've had engineers try to set up the Tomei conversion (JHH Engineering) and they can't. It doesn't work. The other way to do it is to convert your hydraulic lifters to solid. I don't think you'll get anyone here to tell you how it's done. I haven't got the time right now but might do tonight.

i woundnt bother spending the cash and r & d time on a soilid conversion, or disabiling the vct.

a 26 head has everything you want and would be a lot cheaper and flow more.

failing that a 26 headgasket will block of the vct oil feed. prob fixed.

Not really. JHH do the solid conversion for around $450 from memory. Once you factor in the cost of a complete 26 cylinder head with manifolds etc, the cost gets pretty high and the 25 head will flow the same anyway. Plus he'll probably have to alter the intercooler piping which adds more cost.

The oil feed doesn't need to be blocked, you can just leave it

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
