Its making about 300kw atm but it should be making more.... gonna change a few things, turn the boost up and hopefully get some more killerwasps.

Fkn love EC, cant wait to get out there again. Hopefully it isnt too long till they sort all this crap out and we can get out there again.

Ohh and since the last update I have also added a set of BC BR coilovers and some DBA Club spec slotted rotors and project mu pads. Makes a world of difference.

Also just ordered a set of Bride Vios III seats and rails which should be here anyday. Now all thats left for me is to put a cage in, swaybars, get more steering lock and then do some cosmetics.

Im thinking of doing a 34 GTR front end conversion and 33 GTR rear overfenders.

Yeah I thought they looked weird as well when I put them in but then I sat in them and they are perfect. The rails were made to sit the seats as low as possible...both the front and back of them are as low as you can get them before hitting the floor.. and it still feels a bit high. I've got clearance for my head with a helmet but I think I'm gonna struggle to fit the front legs on the cage and still have room for my head.

not much to update really.... went drifting on the weekend in 36 degree heat... had to do a cooldown lap every few laps to stop it overheating.

Was having a few dramas with the power steering overheating as well.

That said I was one of the few cars that was still drivable untill the end of the day.

Next few things to do are:

- Subframe mods (Solid flush bushes to raise it and welded reinforcements to make it stronger)

- Power steering cooler.

- Soon ill have to start the dreaded job of sound deadening removal in preparation for the cage.

Ill keep you guys updated as things happen...

      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.

      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.

      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!?!?
