Bec - different Troy! The one helping me is ylwgtr2 - the drunk one you will be stuck with is Roy!

:P

LOL - I know they are different Troy's - YLWGTR2 (troy) is coming to Winton as well apparently and we were trying to find out if he wanted accommodation as well - but if he's fixing your gearbox then I guess he won't be needing it.

As if you'd let Roy near your gearbox!!!!

What is this 7am start. If the drive is 2 hours, hmm, thought gates open 8. Can you rock up late?

My friends have suddenly become interested in going up. But we are looking at the onsite camping, $15 a night from what i read on website.

Is there no scrutineering? Im low on information, last minute decision.

Is petrol easy to get hold of up there. Expensive. Should jsut bring a jerry can?

There is a special "skylines" service station at Benella which is 10mins drive away. Because you will probably get LOTS of track time you will need up to 2 tanks of fuel for this day. Its prolly a few cents more than Melb. But not heaps more.

There is scruiteneering - its VERY basic and doesnt take long. I can garantee it won't start at 9:30am. The head of the Benella Auto Club does this REALLY annoying speach before the event about the whole AASA v CAMS thing thats boring as all hell and goes for ages. But he does it every time. Leaving the start of the Hume at 7:00am will be perfect.

Ok - unfortunately Im out of the Sat night Wang special.

And its all Adz's fault. Due to his car being such a pain the only time Troy has available to pull my box out is Sat night. So I will have to come down with the Sunday morning crew.

For the accomodation I have placed my credit card down as the deposit to hold 3x 5 Person appartments. It works out at $30 Per Person. Rather than stufing around when we get up there, I might get people to Direct Deposit $30 into my account. This will save us scrounging around for peoples loose change and frantically swapping notes to get the $30 each right, with 15 people standing in the office.

So people can either DD to my account and i'll chuck it all on credit, or make sure you have $30 cash to hand out to me and I can just walk straight in their and get it sorted. This will mean we can get on with the beer and pool. 35 degrees is forecast for Saturday.

Here is my account details:

063245 00688564 - Mr Christopher R Thomson

Please use your forum name as a description if using Netbanking, and PM me once you sent the money. If paying for two or three please indicate.

Cheers Chris. 0418390299

Also the first 15 people will get this price. If we need more than 15 beds, then additional rooms will need to be booked, but the price will be slightly more for the night. I think it was like $35- 40.

The first 15 ppl? I was like last on the list so how much? I just checked this thread tonight.

It's OK - you have a bed - we have an option to chuck an extra bed in the lounge rooms of the aportments (for an additional price) so a couple of extras wont kill us - if we get a few more people though I will look at booking an additional room.

well Shivam's mate "300ZX Guy" has to work this weekend so he has had to pull out - although this does mean Shiv gets his car for the weekend....

anyways - so we are back to 15 people - so everyone gets a bed at the moment

      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!?!?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
