Hi Mate,

There isn't really anything out there as far as aftermarket tail lights. The "GTR copy" ones you are talking about is just a carbon fibre or plastic overlay that attaches to the factory ones. Some are even just a dark tint with holes in them. I have seen carbon ones us ebay before, but they are expensive. When shopping online, make sure you search for G35 rather than V35, as they are a popular car in the States and there are tonnes of aftermarket parts for them (albeit with expensive shipping).

Thanks for your tip regarding G35 on ebay. I see what you mean about the tint or vinyl stickers. I like the factory tail lights at night. But by day they nothing special. Having owned a few R series skylines in the past I loved the stove plates. Hopefully someone produces some full custom units that are similar style to the R35. Im not into the clear Altezza style either. I guess that leaves me 2 options. Buy a R35 or custom graft the tail lights into my V35.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      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.

      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?

      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!?!?
