Will swap for VX/VY/VZ Holden Commodore

$4500 ONO

1993 Toyota Corolla Levin (AE101) GT Apex Coupe (Japanese Import) Silver Top

The later Corolla LEVIN Apex GT's are almost unknown amongst the range of used imports that have come into Australia from Japan over the past few years.

"Silvertop" 20 Valve

S2 version with improved inlet manifold shape - The 20 Valve engines evolved during their production life with changes of a generally minor nature involving principally, a reduction in reciprocating mass ( flywheel, conrods, etc) airflow (manifold shape, valve size, throttle body) piston design and injector capacity.

Front suspension is squeaky.

Selling because bought a boat but need a car to tow boat with, looking for VX/VY/VZ commodore

    • Lamb roast on Saturday will be different 🥲
    • 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.
    • 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? 
    • 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.
