Tomei sponsored, so parts would cost zero. If you had a stock R and tomei gave you all those bits for free, would you install them?

The cam gears yes, the rest no

Car is finally booked into Insight on the 19th of April for the ECU, fuel system and sensor wire in plus the tune. Thats the good news. The bad news is that V-cam aint gonna fit with my pistons and ho

Small update.... ITS RUNNING. Fired first go! Smells like burnt dust apparently .

A 9174 would just make the EGP pressure issue worse and in my mind it seems like a bit of a GT RS shit going on. Not that it's horrendously bad (It wouldn't be no twin buttplug pressures), That's NOT

No. Only the cam gears. Rest would be in a for sale thread on SAU.

Nope I would prefer the standard setup would drive much better

So if Tomei offered you a heap of free shit you would say "no I'd prefer to drive my stock (slow-ass) GTR"?

Yeah, sure you would...

Have you seen the dyno graphs floating around for these Tomei turds? They're absolute garbage. I'd rather spend money out of my own pocket than run free snails which are garbage.

YET, lol

Did you get a chance for a ride/drive in one of his great Rs

Nah.

the world record car was on a hoist. There was a 32 without an engine and box in it. Heaps of finished engines all wrapped up.

      If we're going after market gauges, I'm a big fan of Australian made... Get some RedArc!

      Unless you're fortunate enough to buy a newer car, getting an older style plate to match your name/car is difficult because they've already been purchased.  Unlike other countries, personalised plates are locked to the country and not region, so there can't be multiple versions of the same plate but with a different area code.  Hope that helps

      People use the numbers to make it look like letters to spell words/names, which is where the illegal spacing comes in. For example this GR Yaris

      Today's rock removal from my stock pile out the back into a 4m³ skip bin, I still have a bit to go, hopefully there's enough room in the skip bin, it will be close My daughter and her boy was coming on Sunday to help, but, I got possessed by demons and started work as soon as the bin arrived at 1230 today Lots and lots of barrow loads were achieved  Currently I'm sitting on the lounge drinking beer thinking of how I should have waited till Sunday for some help, tomorrow will be a day off, in saying this, my day off will involve prep and paint of my alloy coolant and PS tanks with wrinkle paint (Jackie is in Sydney till Sunday so the home oven will get a run curing the paint....LOL)

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      That's why I said it is a meaningless term. Because there is more than one meaning that people can apply to it. When we said "highflow", that is exactly what we mean, and exactly what is done. In a highflow, they take your housing and machine them out to take bigger wheels, have a better internal profile, etc etc, and fit a new core with the different/better/bigger wheels.
