lol mw.

Something to say Eddie?

OT: MW Performance is great. Quality work, well priced, is legit, registered with MTQ, isn't dodgy and shadily run with stolen parts. He doesn't sleep in his shed. Doesn't promise to do work then bail on people when the jobs half done/too hard (not saying other real workshops would do this, just an example)

Always had work done there, Car has never missed a beat. made 330hp all day every day for 2 years, built motor, turbo stuff done, 5 stud stuff, cage, everything.

Marty is meticulous with the work he does.

Mate there are other people on the coast who know cars. you just have to know them. i knew marty also, he was good at what he does. but saying that, garage redzone is as good also, and am auto are too if you really want to go all the way to noosa. if you can do stuff yourself thats fine. but the reason people are looking for a mechanic is that fact they dont have the skills or the tools to do it, also a time thing where a mechanic can do it in a day or so might take some people 3 weeks, and some cant afford to have there cars off the road for that long.

So all you have to do is talk to these people and check out there work. im sure you will find them more then helpful in these areas.

places not to touch are kawana auto service and Totally Imports. I used to work at Toatall Imports, and the owner is very dodgey in what he gets us to do. Craig at Toruqe and Tune is very good , and so is browns performance in nambour with small things. Don't take anything to top cog. if anything take it down to brisbane to mark at godzilla motorsport or top rpm highly rated workshops with proven background, and stay away from mercury motorsport.

      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!?!?
