You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

I don't even want to know what it's cost me over the past 5 years... if I put my fingers in my ears and hum really loudly, I might be able to pay for a few extra little bits and pieces to get it going again.

All I know is, it's progressed into a real pig to drive, but I love it every time I drive it (especially now that I don't drive it every day)

i feel the same. but the car has always not been the friendliest to drive.

and even after the money ive spent on it making it an even better car, the shit from bad workshops/previous owner are still biting me in the arse.

take it to ford and get the apprentice that does the work on fiestas to change them and test drive it....

it's not hard but if you f**k something up is a royal pain.

Anyone know if 33R series 3 lip will fit a series 1/2?

Straight bolt on, remember you'll need the brake ducts as well to make it all work properly. Early lip was actually offered as an option for S3's lol. I guess some people didn't want dat reduced ground clearance.

It was a triple sting....

1. How do you not know how to change brake pads?

2. Why would you take it to a workshop and pay instead of spending half an hour learning with someone who does know whats up (wouldn't recommend experimentation learning with brakes for obvious reasons)

3. FPV.

Yeah I find the s1-2 lips nicer, s3 looks way to beefy at the front with nothing on the sides/rear with that lip

Mohsen didnt just not have insurance. He cancelled it because he wanted to look for a better deal.... and kept driving

Baaaahahahahahshshahsaaa

Are brake ducts different across series? I have my series 1 ducts. Either my eyes are shit or I can't tell the difference between the S1/2 and S3 aesthetically.

There are JUN style carbon lips on eBay for $400, whilst I don't wanna spend that much on a lip, that's what the series 3 guy was chasing for his with slight cracks underneath it.

Wonder how it'd look.

Wish I could find a series 1, that looked the best.

I'm sure I've posted it before, but why is anyone surprised when mohsen, a retard, does something retarded?

Well it's not so much that it's a surprise that he is a retard but the seemingly never ending depth of his retardedness

Ealy lip also has the disadvantage of collapsing at high speed though.

Oh really? Well a nicer looking lip though

No surprises, just hilarious

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required.

      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.

      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.
