CHRIS MW33 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 thats good to hear performance valve springs are reliable. i don't see many reviews. how much rpms are you turning? it would be good to see more persons promote a good product.

Dose Pipe Sutututu Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I've got a set installed on a motor I'm slapping together as well. 85lb seat pressure with titanium retainers because I was upsold by my mate LOL. Will spin the motor to 9k RPM, will have a balanced crank and Spool Import billet oil pump gears along with matching pump collar. Funny part is, will be on stock rods, stock pistons with ACL Race conrod bearings. #wishmeluck 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/444228-r34-rb25-neo-valvesprings-and-hardware/page/3/#findComment-7835810 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently juggled a set of Performance's normal retainers and the stock Nissan ones. The Performance ones are massive. Easily three times as thick and heavy as the stockers. I wouldn't do that to my engine. The Ti ones would be an easy upsell.

CHRIS MW33 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Nice I will give up the vct to go 270 on mine. Spin to 9k as well with a larger Turbo. What is the purpose of your Car?

Dose Pipe Sutututu Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Don't give up VCT, worse thing to do. GTR owners are paying thousands to retrofit them to their RB26 motors. Purpose of the car: track work, drift, might dabble in roll racing too. Goal: 4k of usable RPM.

CHRIS MW33 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 i see drag only in mind and daily driver. i will not operate in the vct region most of the time therefore why bother retain the vct? vct shuts off at about 4700rpm. i will be in 5+k revving to 9-9.5k should give me about 4k usable range as well Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/444228-r34-rb25-neo-valvesprings-and-hardware/page/3/#findComment-7835910 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore it's a street car youll need that low down to move around traffic. Worse idea ever removing VCT. If you want brappy cams that support VCT look at Camtech cams.

Also think about Wat was said.... I Drag Race and I never operate in the vct range fantastic or not it is useless if the engine nerves sees the vct. Launch control is 4500rpm weeks vct turns off at 4700 therefore I see 200rpm of vct then I stay above 5k rpm between shifts. Car is not a track car. Vct makes no sense to my setup. Larger cams would be more useful since I will be operating in the 5k plus region We are not here to all have like minds.

So if you intend on driving it at all on the road you would be a fool to remove vct. Clearly u have your mind made up. Good luck to you but my crystal ball says that you'll look back in the future and think those guys where right. So, will this thing be driven on the street or not? That should be what your decision is based around. Also vct will not hurt performance on the drag strip.
