Something that has come to light during the recent week, R34's are currently being targeted by thieves.

I'd urge everyone to re-evaluate any alarm system their cars have and put in place any effective means of keeping the car secure.

You should all assume that your keys are available and have been copied, this is the general idea of what security measures are required in the future.

Good luck!!!

QLD specific in my case, but it still pays to be aware who could possibly have a copy of your keys and intimate details of your car, remember in everyones case, someone has had your car before you get hold of it.

I gota admit, I thought I was over protective of my car by a long way. Seems not. Its rarely out of my sight, or someone I knows site. Always locked, everything always covered. Parked away from other cars so they dont run in to it, open doors on to it, but not so far away that anyone can break in without been seen. I always put the factory steering lock on too. Seats back over amps. Rug over cds etc. Steering wheel cover just to cover up its a sports steering wheel. Anything to make my car just that little bit less attractive over the car next to it.

I think my mechanic is the only one who could steal my car. Trick is, he would do his arse if he did :thumbsup:

The Best Way to stop some one is put a good set of locks on your car.

I swear by these locks, I have had them on most of the cars that I have owned.

Click the lock to see the latest Solex Range of locks.

all sets of the locks come with 4 keys 2 normal use one with a light in it & a emergency/master key, the master key is only for the 1 set of locks, each set of locks is different. Trust me I have had about 5 cars with them still on lol & ended up keeping the emergency key once or twice.

Well its really easy to code normal locks, hell I could do a standard lock with my eyes closed.

(another thing that could of been done is all the locks have a similar lock profile but vary enought to stop one secondary key being used on another lock, meaning the master Primary key will cover the whole 200 locks, I thinks thats right lol)

But the solex locks are another story all together.

Whats the key look like on the end????

lol thats why adrian the locks you must have at work drop a pin in the middle of the lock allowing the key to push the full set of code tags out of the way that the only way I can think it would work as for the normal ones there solid centers & there for single set coding :)

      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.

      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!?!?
