Now that i have ur attention. I have a fully rebuilt Rb25 most of which has been modifed excluding the standard cams. im looking to achieve that 500hp figure. Most of everything has been dun to the motor, i kno its vague, but has any1 hit the 500 hp mark atw? what camshafts are adviseable if i don't want to modify anything else (ie cylinder head clearance machining, up-rated valve springs, special retainers, solid lifter kit)?

If it does hit 500hp atw ... u all will definitely be detailed

thanks

By nuts I meant... "dammmn im still having fun with only 270rwhp, double that would be out of this world"

Instead of those floor mats that say "Get in, sit down, shut up and hangon" you would need "Get in, sit down, shut up and i hope you brought a spare pair of undies"

the highest you can go up to i have been informed is 264 degrees of rotation, before you have to machine the head, get new lifters and valve springs

tomei cams don't make a 264 they only make 260 and 270 or 272 (don't quote me on this though)

hks have 256, 264

whats been mentioned to me is that the 264 cams will be enough to get ya 500hp, anything more then 264 is really for darg machines with 700+ hp :P

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
