I have now got the leather stitched wheel to fit to the 25G that has a harder thinner wheel which feels uncomfortable. Have searched for safe method to remove and fit but could not find any DIY stuff.

How do you go about it? Info appreciated.

disconnect the battery, remove airbag, remove nut holding wheel on (but leave it on a few turns, so you dont smack yourself in the face with the wheel) loosen steering wheel, remove nut, remove wheel. reverse process to install new wheel :)

its not all that difficult, so dont be worried. just dont drop the airbag and make sure the battery is disconnected before you go about doing this.

Thanks. Will do it soon.

sorta correct. you need a t30 torx key for starters hugh, after you get the side covers off there are two torx bolts, this releases the airbag module -note: do not turn ignition on when airbag and horn is not connected, it can throw an error. and you can just pull the airbag fuse in the engine bay. make sure airbag error light goes off when plugged back in.

      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!?!?
