I'm from perth.... so i'm still learning where *everything* is over here shop-wise.

anyways, i've got the whiteline works kit on my r33, which i got just before i left home..... after playing with it a little, testing out the car at the limit (prolly more mine than the car's!) i still feel like it snaps into oversteer very dangerously.

looking for a good place to set it up, as well as alignment etc etc that would be familiar to these kits.

I'm in Heidelberg.

Thanks!

There is one suspension place i recommend over all others - although it is in north melbourne.

Talk to Ralph at Trutrack Pty Ltd, 52-62 Leveson St., North Melbourne.

This company has treated me with the utmost respect (even though my car was nothing special), to the extent that Ralph test drove my car after he had his boys set it up, wasn't happy, and went through the whole process of putting it on the alignment machine (twice!).

Boy did the car drive well after that..

Oh, the main reason it took so long to set up was that i had a very non-standard suspension setup on an old Honda. Also, they charge a fixed fee.

      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.

      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!?!?
