Can be bothered quoting all the posts for the replies.

All the simota 4 piston calipers use the same pads, thats skyline, Z32 and S-series. The R33 have a larger diameter but not larger area.

There is no point in putting a RB26 head on an RB25 block, the ports are the same size, the combustion chamber has the same volume; the only advantage is the 26 has solid lifters but when you consider that a complete 26 head is between $1500 - $2000 you could probably turn a 25 head into a solid head for less.

And the 25 head has a has VTC.

Wow! Copping some abuse from an Ebay keyboard warrior :)

I bid and won a crank and rods for my RS250 racebike so I could start the rebuild. I organise to bid on a piston kit he has and he agrees to wait until bidding on the next item has finished so I can take them both as the one package. Before the auction ends (3 days after winning the crank) I get an abusive email from him, saying pay now because he has other people offering mroe money for it. I promptly inform him that I am the winning bidder and we had an agreement on a combined payment for other items still at auction. He ignores me and sells the items to another buyer. Money hungry wanker. He only got 1/4 of what the crank could have gone for, but he must honour the auction.

I've reported him to ebay and given negative feedback. Now he's sending abusive emails like this ...

Dear **************,

your a f**kn puff the crank sold for less ,you are a week little boy hid,n behind your computer , do the world a favour and f**k off

I've copied the email to Ebay. See what they do with the guy now. My response to him was that if he was going to send abusive emails, he should at least learn grammar and some spelling first. :)

:blink:

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
