hey guys just thought i would bring to your attention i had an attempted theft on my 33 at around 5ish this morning. (been meaning to get an alarm but recent lack of funds stopped this). I got lucky, no damage on entry and they have popped the ignition to start it however the steeringlock wouldnt release so once it was out the driveway they got no where. And my trusty neighbour spotted it while out having an early morning smoke. had not got around to putting insurance renewal back on either so im very lucky to still have my baby here.

I live in Southern Brisbane around the sunnybank and runcorn area so if u have a skyline in the area make sure its protected. First things on my list atm now are an alarm and renewing insurance.

Currently waiting on qps arrival :( will update this if and when i find out anything from them. They have taken my wallet, gps and the cheap bastard even took my smokes!!

AGAIN MAKE SURE YOURE BABY IS SECURE, ALARMED AND INSURED. I wish i hadnt left mine so long now.

So many thefts down brisbane way at the moment.

Suprised your neighbour didnt go and confront them if he saw something going on.

You were very lucky though this time, you still have your pride and joy to enjoy!!

neighbour said she thought it was me at first but when he looked at her the guy suddenly headed up the street and didnt come back and the car was still out in the road running then she realised what was going on. Working in a prison though all i can say is if the cops do actually catch this guy i hope he ends up in where im working.

found a column for yours btw :)

sometime this week I will get it re keyed.

could be worse - mate of mine had keys,wallet taken from a unit in that area. keys were benz optical and they are going to be a pain to replace. add to that one ute that went for a drive as well (with tools in the tray I am told.)

lock them up or lose them seems to be the thing for southside at the moment.

had a chat to a neighbor a few days bay who has a toy tucked away and he was saying someone is trying to get that as well..

what is it with people???

Got a nice set of wheels? Love your pride and joy? Dont want some window licking fcuktard to steal it? Easy solution! Call Chris Rogers, Get the job done and dont be a tightarse. The guy is from what i can tell, an absolute legend and really knows his schnizzit. Alarms and immobilisers are there to keep the honest ones away, so think outside the box and incorporate other sneaky means to securing your pride and joy, im sure chris can make some subtle suggestions to you if you are a commited customer :)

      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.

      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!?!?
