they are nice. remember your GTR would of had better potential for speed but for everything else they are mint

edit: my mistake they still are quicker than i thought just wikied them

8:22 nurburgring time :thumbsup:

yeah they are quick for what they are but of course it wouldnt take much to make a gtr faster. maybe ill get the one on carsales up in queensland thats been supercharged and making over 400hp atw.:D

R33 GTR seats - Worth buying? Dont see anything wrong with my stock seats, but i might not know what im missing out on?

r33 GTR seats or r32 GTR rims w/ semi's

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

33 GTR seats are ok for light track work, they don't really have great side bolstering or shoulders. Don't worry about semi's, just get a set of soft road tyres (RSR, AD08, R1R)

R34 GTR / Eastbear, Recaro or Gais style are probably better suited to a harness though.

32/33 GTR seats are not that great for harness as it has to go through the hole in the middle and will cut into your neck annoyingly.

for a lil tacker like you leigh there are HEAPS of reclinable options from bride that are much better than a GTR seat for track/street usage :)

Haha true that Hamish for now they are good enough I feel. Turbos and supportive mods first :D

Also how much for a base tune with a power fc? Picking one up tonight and wondering if it's worth throwing in while I save for the turbos and other parts for a bit of fun in the mean time. Even if its a bit rough I'm sure it'll use less fuel then I am now stock ecu must pump so much in after you boost it up a bit.

Wow that was annoying to type on iPhone.

Standard price is about $500

I read some threads in the Vic section, but only if they're relevant to me/interest me

F1 thread, and sometimes browse the general wasteland, but most of it is internet nerds posting pictures with word art on them which they think is hilarious.

    • 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.
