Pods = HAI = Fail

Air Box = CAI = Win

Put one of these over the pods and save a shit load of money.

Anyone know if 33gtr seat sits lower than 33gtst? Starting to get a bit annoyed with my head rubbing the roof.

It should be lower, they are lower than 32 GTST seats.

Still got that misfire mate?

Yup. Friday afternoon, a mate picks my car up from the tuners after having the belts tightened and the tuned slightly modified. Ask's me if he can take it for a spin round the block, i say yes. I get to his place after work to pick up the car...he tells me it is sounding weird, i start the car...it sounds like a WRX :P , i think either coilpack or sparkplug...ring a mate, and he sort of confirms it, and give me some soultions to fix it, they dont work.

Luckily my mate has a garage out the back, so i drive the car in, and pull out the coils and plugs. Coils look okay, plugs....are black and 1 of the 6 was moist. I swap the plugs around, aswell as the coils, put it back together...still the same - now i think about it, of course it would. So i leave it for the night.

Come back on Saturday with the stock coils and plugs that were in the car before. Change plugs first, start car...runs fine, rev it a bit, still runs fine. So i take the car home, all fine, take it for a spin once i get home, it stalls randomly 1-2 times, but other then that runs fine.

Take it to work today, runs fine, on way back from work, the car starts loosing power, dropping revs, and jerking, aswell as stalling at the lights 2-3 times. So i take it back to my mates place, where it is now until Tuesday, when i can take it back to the tuner.

My guess is either wrong plugs - put in Iriway7 first, then swapped back to PFR5G11

or

A Bad tune - Too Rich, not good with this heat.

or

Ignitors may be playing up in the heat.

It had been running fine until Friday afternoon, had gone about 1000km before then.

ahh ok, cheers for that, hope your right haha, rb20de+t would suck.

wonder why it would have ecr32 written on the ecu then?? hmmmm

also, changed my mind on the turbo AGAIN.

did a dummy fit, i would need to run a spacer on the flange coz the compressor housing hits the manifold

before the studs are tightened, and i need an elbow made up.

i do however need a coolant line, the one that goes from the back of the block to the back of the turbs...

anyone got one lyin round?

need a full pic of the car with it on to make up my mind, but i bet it serves its purpose down the back straight of lala.

It looks bigger in those pics than it really is, its about the same size as Andrew's.

      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.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      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!?!?
