Ive done quite a few long rears on cars and If i was looking to buy that particular car to repair it i wouldnt be prepared to pay more than 50k for it.....not to sure on what a long rear would be worth with rear suspension ect in it but if had to telly up my labour figure for stripping/unpicking the joins rewelding it,repaint and assemble and id say around 20k.....a long rear is most definatly the best/safest and most unnoticible repair for that car.....

Bidding started at $30,000 ended at $82,500.

Referred to vendor again.

Check back next week. I expect it will be for sale again.

Insurance co should have taken the $92,500 they were offered last week. :cool:

it is pretty overpriced tho..

true, but if it was me would buy it to swap numbers accross from my cheap grey import (cheap with race only reg just missed a grade 5 one at auction for 5,635,000 yen) and have nearly a complete spare car for parts..... and a fully road registered grey import.. if i was so inclined :D

    • 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.
    • 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? 
    • 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.
