quote from Matt The Mad **** on the exvitermini bbs..

"Unfortunately the car couldn't run yesterday as planned, cause the tow truck broke down!

But today.........

Andrej just rang me and said that RH9GTR has busted third gear :-(

RH9's third gear is on it's way out :-(

And GTR-700 ran an 8.96 at 160 + MPH this moring :-)

And then backed it up with a 8.99.

No news of breakages on GTR-700 yet............ "

well done Mario...

Not bad considering he paid someone to build the car and some one to drive it, I think I will just sell my second house and go to Japan to buy a car from HKS and bring it back and pay someone to drive it so I can break the record, what a WANK. A least I will build my own car and I will also drive it, although it might not go as fast but it would have to be more satisfying than just employing people to do everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe PAC PERFORMANCE can help me.

"yes this user is so brave he had to set up a new account to post this"

Hey MATE, its a team effort obviously. Did Tetsuya Kawasaki build the HKS GTR on his own? Was it the result of any one person?

Obviously your goals are a little different. You want to go and build you own car then thats fine. Beside the fact that he has infact worked on the car himself in many ways, why pay out someone who has worked so hard to get the whole project together and has achieved so much?

I think its a hell of a thing building a car like this, where it hasn't been done here before, getting some good results, and not being finished yet. Credit where credit is due.

dude, get a grip. mario earn's his money so let him do as he pleases, if anyone had the expertise in australia to build a PROGTR i'm sure it would have been locally done more so that it was. and DON'T TELL ME YOUR CAR WAS BUILT MY DON BURKE'S BACKYARD MOTORSPORT

get off the anon. comments, have some balls and stand behind your opinion, not a new alias.

haters :headshot:

Words cannot describe the level of gutlessness that you exhibited by having to create a new account to post your views, and not have the courage to post it under your own name.

:tool: Nice work you complete idiot. Very few people have the driving ability to handle a car of this level.

I suppose you think you can jump in an not only build one of these cars YOURSELF but also run a time as stated with you behind the wheel?

i see his point tho, not the wanker part, but like, all mario is, is the owner, i congratulate him on a good time and all the rest, but all he is , is a cheque book? isnt he?

fair enough if he drove it, he could claim the time, or if he built the car...

please dont see this as bitching, im just tryin to explain my point.. and i think his too.

His money= His car right? his money spent on mods= his faster car right?

Who cares if he doesnt build/race the car! His money, His car, HIS TIMES!

If you think you can do better.... then please so, or go and die.

Boxhead: So seing as Mario pays for his modifications with money no doubt well earned and has the best in the business build his cars, then i guess every one of us who has had "someone else" fit a part or service our cars is a "cheque" writer?

you got it all wrong nick,

im just saying your a cheque book racer, if all you do is foot the bill, i mean, if you pay for mods, and you drive it and its your car good on you, or if you build the car and someone else races fair enough too

but to sit back, own the car on a peice of paper, and just make it the fastest gtr with your money just to say you have the fastest car, i consider those people tools,

im not saying you have to do it all on your own, but you should do something...

To MarioGTR,

Glad 2 see all the time and money you invested in GTR700 is paying off. You did what you set out to do, unlike some others on here who are all talk and no action.........

8.96 is gonna make my GTR seem real slow in comparison:(

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required.

      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.

      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!?!?
