Hello recently took off my head r32 rb25de before a first start because there was metal shavings still in the head.  I had a shop machine the head and didn't do it right I had my machinist that I trust disassembled it and looked it over.  He found that the other shop painted the insides of the head and did a valve job that doesn't even seal.  So in short I need new OEM rb25det valves so he can machine them to seal cuz if he were to machine the current ones they would be too thin.  Even if you only have one set Ex or IN Ill buy.  They have to be oem not machined or ground.

Hmm. Good luck. I realise you're probably trying to save money, but this looks to be an opportunity to put some Ferreas or similar in it.

Yea your right but my machinist told me that Nissan and most Hondas have very good valves and are better then some aftermarket I trust him cuz he builds a lot of high hp engines

We're staring to get many more threads where we have to suggest a different engine builder/mechanic/tuner/. Too many cases of silly things being believed/said.

Nissan valves are in fact quite good, but....they're certainly nowhere near as good as really nice aftermarket valves.

Idk I really do trust my current machinist he’s built Ryan litterals rb but besides that I ended up buying a rb25det head took the valves and sold the core to one of the machinist customers

Without being contrary, I doubt anyone, ever, has replaced factory valves with same sized aftermarket. 

you only change the valves if you are going 1mm oversize...

I was going to but I really don’t think I need that for 450hp

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
