The regs said 95db limit, but they didn't have anything to test it. There were a couple of cars running screamers and I'm sure they would have been at least 110db LOL. You'd fit in fine ;P

Let me know when the next decent event is on and ill try make it down ;)

For sure man :D

There is an Esses Descent planned on the 30th March but not 100% sure if it will go ahead.

Hillclimb on Mountain Straight on 31st August, Supersprint on Conrod on 2nd November and again the 29th November as well as a Hillclimb on Mountain Straight again on the 30th November.

Yea man, the Supersprints are just Conrod so you could just do one of those days. But I will insist that you do a hill climb as well man, would love to hear your car hitting gate all the way up the mountain :D

If they let me that is :P Would be keen to give it a crack :yes: I was pretty jelly once i knew you were there!

Well, when people say that Jim Berry likes to talk, they don't lie :P . I was on the phone to him for about an hour and a half total today, but I learnt a lot (and a lot passed right through one ear and out the other too! haha). I have now ordered a custom clutch and new flywheel from Jim himself. It is almost the same as what Mat (34GeeTeeTee) is running, a 6 puk solid single plate, except with 5000 clamp pressure. It is a bit overkill for my car currently but I am hoping that I will never have to replace it :) . Jim said he would get a start on it and give me a call back in a couple of days, so hopefully I'll get it sometime next week maybe then I can figure out exactly when I will be able to get help fitting it :P

Juts got a call from Jim to say he is sending the clutch/flywheel ^_^

Wow, he musnt of had too many phone calls today :ph34r:

(If he reads this i hope he laughs lol)...

Yeeep. Haha. Oh well, now I have some spare seals I guess :P

I know we had trouble getting the rear main seal right on mine, check it over and make sure it is 100% before fitting :yes:

He mentioned having trouble with the rear main, I'll line it before removing the old one and make sure it all looks right :)

    • 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.
