In my opinion, you won't get a nice PULL from a stock R33 until you do some basic mods, e.g. Pod air filter, Blow off valve, front mounted intercooler and possibly some new Spitfire coilcovers and NGK spark plugs - this is what I call the basic mods. After these, you will experience a good hike in power. Added with a boost controller you'll be hitting the 200 kws mark and from here you will feel the joy.

Modify your car slowly as once you've done everything you'll soon want to move on to another car.

a blow off valve, coilpacks and some and some aren't gonna give you any power, and those mods won't get you a legitamite 200rwkw from a 33 gts-t

Yer, I've taken mine for granted! driving around a honda prelude for a few months now while my engine is out and im tidying up everything and upgrading a few things, trust me once the bug bites you will be burning money, i cant wait to put my engine back in and be able to feel the boost again!

ON TOPIC : I felt the pull in my stock 33 GTST only with a hks exhaust although it was my first turbo car, you get use to it fairly quick! Alot of first turbo owners think they have lost power once they get use to it lol.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      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?

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

      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!?!?
