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

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
