Okay I am reworking a Neo head and it so happens that the head I got is missing some parts. I initially thought I would just swap over my parts from my running head when needed but now I am thinking that I want to get the parts and keep my running head in tact. My question now is what parts from other RB25DET's can be swapped over. I am after, Neo cams, Neo Cam Gears, Four intake valves, four exhaust valves, four buckets/lifters with springs and retainers and also the four shims as well (four intake and four exhaust buckets and shims) and lastly all the cam caps with bolts and cam oiling lines. What size are the guides for both intake and exhaust on the Neo head as I want to replace all of these same time as I am working on the head? Let me know what can be used off other RB25DETs or do I have to get Neo specific parts? Yeah I know I should have gotten a complete head but they are quite rare over on this side.

You can use rb26 cams and camwheels if you are happy to lose the vct. valves and springs cam be bought aftermarket, buckets will be genuine only i would say, but vg30 ones may be the same. rb25 caps and bolts shoudl be the same although you will have to have them line hones as you are mixing and matching sets. hope this helps.

Well I really don't want to lose the VCT as this project is based on a Neo head with an RB26 Block. I have also adapted the RB26 ITBs and toying with the idea of doing a twin turbo setup. If anyone has a scrapped Neo head it will be very helpful. I will pay to have the stock items shipped to me over here in Trinidad in the West Indies. This project is not urgent as I have other pending projects so whenever I get them I get them but I would like to have them in hand for the future build.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
