So as people would have gathered from my other thread, i'll be a newbie to tasmania (flights booked for the 12th)

i visit tasmania once a year for family. but dont really get to explore tasmania or site see.

what is there to do over there. i'll be living around the moonah/lutana area i think it is.

There is a nite life in Hobart!!!, no were near what your uesd to, but not to bad.

Moonah is the motorsport spot in Hobart, Pro Automotive is the Best Dyno guy in Tassie,

Tas Proformance Warehouse is here, SPG is here also, and my work aswell (Moonah Auto Salvage)

You'll hear countless big horse power thing's doing a quick lap of moonah to do a system check

that's what i mean, SA has the best stripper's in Oz, and i've seen a few in my time !!!

nothing better than being down Glenelg watch'n the talant walk pass, while ya smash beer's...

Ha ha yeah burgz32 they do have the best lol. Na I'm from Adelaide too mate moved over seven years ago and have never looked back. It's alot nicer place to live than SA (apart from the miserable winters) but if you like modding cars then there's no better state to do it in. Don't know what the night life is like anymore haven't been out for a year or so but there's always something going on.

    • 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. 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.
