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.

had first experience with electric power steering today.

granted it was in a hyundai Elantra.

but if this is the future, I'm buying old.

when changing lanes could feel cat's eyes through seat but nothing through wheel,

zero feedback, as in nothing, it was horrid.

there's strippers in sunshine/footscray????

not that I ahve ever gone but all the ones I knew had shut down years ago.

Sex cauldron?! i thought they shut that place down??

you can take an exhaust off a prelude and it sounds fast but doesnt mean its not gay as shit.

I'm ok,

there used to be a couple on old gelong road, but the signs are gone now, (Aimed at truckies so never went there)

the spotty was the dodgiest place in west for year but it gone to a gastro pub now.

went there a few times as a Girl I was hanging out with had ideas of being a stripper and wanted advice, never got into it as far as I know plus was walking distance from both our places.

no idea of any others and probally better for it.

the new tesla P85D also does 11 sec 1/4 mile runs..

kinda tempting, other than 100K prices

That's cool for an electric sedan, but then I remembered that Leigh's car does that for $55k and sounds good while doing it lol

Leigh is pulling 11's

damn

how close to being able to do a warranty claim if something breaks?

EDIT: went and looked at his sig, so yeah his modified sedan is just as fast as a stock electric car...woot

All he's done is an ecu remap, which is what the Tesla is doing with it's firmware updates

slight difference after market to factory tho (cost and warranty), plus wheels and tyres

that said I could buy a VL for 5K spend 10K pon it and go faster than either...does that make it a better car.

(opinions other than Mohs appreciated)

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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!?!?
