R32 GTS.T wheels go alright on a GT-R while I get mine repainted yeah? I'm 90% sure caliper clearance wont be an issue being that my car doesn't have the Brembo's

you may have to run slip on spacers on the front, because GTS-T rims on a GTS-T have about 4mm caliper clearance...

lil help, just took the gtr to work and was running fine.

till i tried to put my foot down just the slightest bit and i it didnt wanna boost, was nearly at work so i kept going and yeah it didnt wanna go above 3k. i had it in first has i pulled into the car park and was sitting around the 3k mark seeing if it would go over and it gave the loudest back fire ive heard outa that exhaust. im assuming the extra fuel i was dumping in built up. all the temps seemed fine. it also stalled while i was looking under the bonet after sitting at low rpm for a while.

almost seems like a intercooler hose has come off like once before, had a quick look when i come in but seems to be alright uptop, im going to head out there and jack it up at lunch and try n have a good look at those intercooler hoses.

is there anything else i should be checking? maybe split hoses or something.

damn cars

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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. It just states that 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!?!?
