hope it wasn't the yellow supra i see around town - i've always thought it was kinda nice to look at in a ricey sort of way. too huge a body kit for my taste, but quite striking.

spotted a white r33 with DTS written down the side tonight at blockbuster woden. not sure if he's a local coz he started going out the 'in' lane from hindmarsh drive.

not a skyline, but last night i spotted a yellow supra mount a gutter and then get stuck on the median strip between the servo and shops at kaleen, took them about 45 mins to figure out how to get it off there, the body kit didnt look too good after

sounds like the yellow non turbo one with the veilside kit i see frequently at ANU. P plater non turbo, driven by an international student guy

yeh, a wee bit too much rice for my liking

I think everyone knows that supra... I see it all the time. From a distance it looked allright. Get up close and it looks pretty average (lots of cracks and scrapes all over the place)... Beaching it probably hasn't helped it any either :

Spotted Thursday morn': a de-winged R32 with a "work-in-progress" vented bonnet heading towards Queanbo' on Lanyon Drive. Looked like the car will turn out nice! Also spotted this morning one of the angriest sounding R31's I've ever seen at Macca's in Fyshwick about 8.30. Black 2 door;anyone on here(jeez,I hope so)?!?

There's a guy with a black 2 door 31 that works at Domayne in Fyshwick, perhaps that's the one you saw.

You want an angry 31 Jayce, keep a keen lookout for a gunmetal Aussie 4 door that has a habit of getting sideways under boost (Frink, Bullet31 and Stinkypoo know which car I'm talking about)

    • 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? 
    • 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.
