how is that even close to Mexican fitment??

Anyway it does look good

Because it has camber and is close to filling his guards perhaps? Doesnt need to be -10 camber or rubbing to be mexican (or mexican-ish if that makes u happy)

But then you have a starlet..

Mexican is when the wheels are WAY out the guards.

At least J-Rad knows what mexican is. clearly your fitment knowledge is matched by your knowledge of mechanics repairs and rb26 blocks. well sus this out next track day, everyone knows the Starlets greatest rival is the r32 GTR :D

and a pic of my old s13 to show you what good fitment is on a clean car, not mexican... and weezy.....why dont you drive over here and....oh wait :thumbsup:

yeah i think 10mm would have made it sit nicely but they did the job.

hoping to steve, with all the extra gear thats gone on since then, and some parts im waiting to arrive from Japan id love to get 1:27/28. should be possible but only time will tell.

looking forward to the shiny parts being on by Autosalon, and the rest of the suspension arms and under body bracing by track day

I could train it, my knowledge of how to get from A to B around Adelaide via public transport is getting pretty good lately

    • 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?
