You are starting to get very soft

Copy and paste from NS: It seems SAPOL elected not to put on a stand at AJD this year, nor did they take the option of having a presence at the exit of the show to make sure people behaved themselves

If Churros are like someone cumming in your mouth, then no thanks.

matt if you need a driver for the caldy ill be keen, looking at getting one of these soon and keen to have a look and see what they are like.

Thanks for the offer, Matt. I'll let you know when it gets closer to the day. I need to convince Kim first.

They're not a bad little wagon. N edition is obviously the one you want, with a bunch of TRD suspension upgrades, Torsen LSD, Recaro interior and so on. Handling is their strong point.

I've tweaked our N slightly, bit of a play with fuel pressure and extra boost. It still runs the stock exhaust, intercooler, intake, yet I've managed sub 6sec 0-100km/h (5.8) coming off the line with about 10-12psi boost. When it was dead stock, and before I dicovered how to launch it with minimum fuss, the best I could manage was low 7sec 0-100km/h.

HPI did a review of the ST246W, in which they claimed mid 8sec 0-100km/h, not sure what happened with the test car but they are much quicker than the article would suggest!

Is it true that there were defect stations set up outside after the event last year?

No.

no, thats not true. there were some people flexin' in front of everyone and were pulled up. As it is 99% of the time, dont be a dick, and youll be fine

One particular entrant will not coming back this year, despite applying and having his car on the cover of a magazine, because of his behaviour as he left last year.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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!?!?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
