What type of security guards does in come with?

dude it's a 33... not the holy grail 34.... ONLY 34's need security guards.

33's only need a facebook and instagram account (which may be a problem for birds)

Niice, however the engine rebuild & full Rwc with vicroads inspection will be fun :/

Yep gonna be a bit of work and dollars, but so much money saved on mods. Final build price *should* arrive on par with buying a standard one, but will be something forged and ballistic.

Loving the colour too, not a huge fan of midnight purple etc.

Plans for the engine?

Stock transplant? Full rebuild? power goals?

Nek minnit racepace $15k rebuild

Still deciding, it will really depend what comes up. If a built 26 pops up, I'll consider that for a cheap and risky way out. Otherwise, budget may allow for RacePace to rape my wallet.

Was making 340awkw with the HKS turbos before engine issues (it's actually still quite driveable and the engine idles smoothly besides the sound, so don't know how far gone it is), which sounds plenty for me in a street car. I'd like to put it on sugar cane for response, though.

    • 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? 
    • 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.
