Along with a proper briefing at the commencement, this is HOW cruises should be run. A credit to you.

UPDATE:

I have been shafted with rego and need two tyres which has blown me over my budget this weekend, but I have enough information to label the date.

Recon cruise will be shortly ( cruise organisers/helpers expect a PM )

THE CRUISE ITSELF WILL BE ON THE 6TH OF JULY, 10 AM START. Please consider this written in gold. I was unable to edit my original post.

Thankyou to everyone for your patience, please spread the word and I will hope to see you there.

Correct! The southern newspapers have been 'reassured' that blitzing will be carried out for as long as it takes to keep speeds down in the Royal NP. It's to be heavier than before. And this is in other car forums too.

Defect station has been in the area intermittently Desmond, as attested to by SAU Members, Moelders and God_speed.

Best to be tucked away between 3rd and 3rd-last in a convoy.

I remember the last time i went on thr valley cruise back in 2011. We went past quite a few hwp and none of us got harrassed. That was a good 20 odd cars.

If there is any sign of the defect station on the recon cruise we will move the start to helensbergh/stanwell tops and a later start.

Whilst we all own cars that are unfortunatly targeted thanks to the stupidity of others, im sure they will leave us alone if we are complying with the speed limit.

Terry may know a little mor about this than me, but I'm from the area and a mate of mine had an S13 (he's since sold it because of this blitz) and lived in bundeena and he was getting a low of harassment but he said the main thing they were interested in was wheels for some reason. They never even popped his bonnet!

They kept measuring the width and size of them to make sure they're legal, so I'm very thankful for that tech arvo not long ago haha

Anyone who was intereted in coming on the recon cruise who owns a GTR ( any model ) please Pm me. Whilst I dont mind running the pack, would be awesome to have a flagship at the front.

Thanks and it doesnt overly matter, just an interest :)

      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.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      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.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      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!?!?
