How many cars will actually be required for this to go ahead?

I'm sitting on the fence. The splinters are a bit painful but you get that.

I've recently had my car dyno'd at esp so not much of a surprise but hey would be nice to pwn some supras. Potentially.

C'mon people! Your fellow SAUer's have gone to a lot of trouble getting this event organised. Show some support for SAU ACT and enter the Dyno Day. Only a couple of years ago something like this would have been fully booked by now. It'd be real shame if this was too fall through, seeing as there will be heaps of prizes and that one of the import magazines will be covering it! Good chance to get a happy snap of your car in a magazine!

As far as I'm aware Performance imports will be covering the day as well. So it would be good if we could get the numbers for this like Frink said. If we don't get the numbers soon, we may need to cancel. Ask your friends etc.

Hi all

Just to let you know that there are 9 spots paid for, 6 Skyline's, 2 Supra's and a 10 second Corolla. There are 3 Supra owners (myself included) that are unsure as work is still being completed on the cars.

We are re-thinking sending money to the Red Cross as they have given me 2 days to send all the paperwork to them and they will not budge on this, so we might can this all together, but I will let you all know as soon as I can.

Keep spreading the word and continue with the trash talk... :P

Cheers

Probably not...

If anyone is thinking about this or is unsure because of work or whatever else, just pay up and reserve your spot. If the event is cancelled you'll get your money back (I assume?). If you pay up, then can't make it, perhaps you could make an arrangement with Ross so that you'd get your money back?

Are we opening this up to anyone now? If so, I will post it on the FPV & XR Owners Club ACT website if given the OK. Also, has this been put on NS.com? Or the WRX forums? Perhaps we should if we want to get this off the ground? Thoughts?

Yes a full refund will be available.

Feel free to post it up on other forums, but I might be able to get the local Canberra Celica Group to join us and we could change the day to Toyota v Nissan. If you have been to any local event in Canberra then you would have seen them around, top guys and they do an awesome barbie !!

Hi all

Just letting you know that the format for this day has changed slightly.

It will be more of a Toyota v Nissan dyno day, plus whatever else turns up. I have canned the charity idea as the Red Cross are being very unreasonable and I personally will not be donating any more of my time or money to them again. The Canberra Celica Group will be joining us and they will be running the BBQ.

With this in mind, to ensure your spot on the day, you must deposit $50 into the account on the front page. I will get a list up tomorrow of who has paid.

Cheers

Excuse my ignorance but Is it possible to drop an almost stock r34 GTT auto on the dyno ?

Stock GTR will still be in the paint shop :( and not yet run in either.

      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.

      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?

      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!?!?
