I don't know how you do it. Been in Sydney 2 days and feels like I've spent majority of time travelling to and from the airport. The 1 hour flight still manages to drag on, sitting towards the back of the plane you can't hear your music properly (good in-ear headphones but not noise cancelling). Airports are f**king shit. I hope you get paid well because I probably wouldn't do it even if getting paid solid money

Not to mention time wasted in the hotel. Same old breakfast everyday. Living out of a carry bag.

Better than staring at the same 4 walls in an office every day though!

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.

that said I'm not trying to complain about my job, I've been employed for a decent wage for 15 odd years.

yes some days/weeks suck, tell me a job that doesn't

next week is a cruisey week to catch up and will have change to drop into the local fabricator and hopefully get seat mount sorted and such in middle of the day.

this makes up for the occasional shit day/s

hell could be worse, growing up during calving season old man had to check on the heard every 2 hours max..for 2-3 weeks straight. still prefer what I am doing anyday.

plus I get to wear cufflinks made out of a honda F1 car.

Lol businessman gift

Yeah... And also no. Airports are like hospitals with Windows. Can't wait to get out but youre stuck there. Office work you get to go home every night, find decent coffee, your own desk, can bring own lunch and find a quiet place to eat.

(I would take a desk job over airport/flying job if paid same money) lots of airport/travel time digs into personal time. Some people don't care as long as their getting paid, but to me, time doing your own thing is time much better spent.

I can't imagine Martin's life of every plane and airport blurring into one when looking back on years as they pass

IN the scheme of things I chose this job.

I have no rights to comalin about it.

and in reality I get enough head hunters calling me that at the end of the day if I was unhappy with it I could move on easily.

but other than airports I love my job.

still asking for a pay raise tho....

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

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

      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!?!?
