I didn't think anyone was compliancing 34 R's yet.

Some story about GTT and GTR having to be done as separate vehicles?

Come to think of it - didn't know anyone was doing 34 GTTs yet either...

nah nobody is doing the R34's yet NOBODAY and wont be for a couple of months. Its taking th GOV 6 months just to get to work shops to look over and acept there evidence. Lets say the first person to get them will be charging around $6,000 id say. And they will be able to get it to. So you find me a compliance company that can do it and we will buy 10 plates.

Also if you want go to the DOTARS website to look what cars are up. Only the R33's are eligble. And I dont think anybody is going to be doing the R32's but I did se a 4 door and a 2 door down at the docks today that were not 89's so maybe someone is doing the crash tesing on them. Damn I hope.

R34's are selling for 3million+ Yen (~$AU38K). No one is complying 34's at the moment. As soon as one gets RAWS approval I would wait a month or two - alot of people are going to get approval, just waiting on the 1st person to get through so they can use alot of their information to pass their own workshop.

They're SEVS eligible to come in and under the R34 series just about everything that meets the power ratio bullshxt can come in under one set of evidence (or so I've been lead to believe by the workshops I work with..) Two workshops here in Sydney who's doing the R33 said they were going to get the R34's done by March but the hardass engineer down in DoTaRS don't like what they saw...one workshop failed the intrusion bars last week.

$6k for complying R34's sounds a bit optimistic, one workshop have whinged about the evidence cars for R34 cost a lot more than the R33's which is true.

    • 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.
