Thanks to everyone who previously voted. I'm thru to the finals. You can vote online here http://www.totalcarmagazines.co.uk/idol-nissan-FINAL-2010.htm

There is also a link on that page to a pdf file with more pics and details.

I don't expect to win, but you never know, and it would be awesome to have a Stagea win it.

voted for yours, yours does look the best, but some of the 350z's and the r32gtr arent far behind, the s14 looks decent, but the body kit on it is a bit overkill, good luck with yours

Thanks guys. I've moved up from 11th to 7th now. Some great cars on there that deserve to win but here's hoping..

I'll be going Nistune, bigger injectors and a Z32, but I really need to do something with the exhaust drone, get some new sway bars and a valve body upgrade first.

Valve body upgrade? Manual conversion should be less than a thousand pounds!

I know what you mean. Problem is the amount of titanium plates and screws I fairly recently had put in my left ankle to hold it together. It's just as well that I quite like the tiptronic anyway.

      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!?!?
