Valve bouncing? Isn't that more of a problem on the sr20? I've hit my limiter, unintentionally, it might find like f**king wow but if you've got bad luck you can almost instantly f**k your oil pump then kiss your engine good bye. I raised my limiter a couple hundred rpm, not to rev more, but to avoid hitting it.

More often than not the only times I hit it are when I miss the shift.

Lol bandwagoners

The sr suffered head problems but a 50 dollar part fixes that. (rocker stoppers) sr motors don't have as many oil controll problems as a rb

Excerpt from the book "Keeping YOUR RB Healthy!":

"It should also be mentioned that you should be redlining the car at least five times per day; this will ensure that your engine operates in the best possible way without any fatigue whatsoever. Doing so will also maximize the life of your engine, so do keep that in mind. It should become a habit every time you drive the car"

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
