Let me know how you go with the hydraulic lifters man! Oh okay so you reckn I could get away with just a single 044 in the tank? Pretty much every 30DET I've seen in magazines etc seem to be running a surge tank and 2x 044's hence why I thought I might do the same lol. I got no problem spending the money if thats what it needs but if it aint necessary I guess I won't do it lol. Sorry for the slow replies guys been having some internet problems hopefully sorted now. Cheers I really appreciate the help!

Awesome thanks man! Is this another get one custom made sorta thing or are they fairly commonly available?

Awesome, the 044's seem to be popular in most of the magazine articals I've seen just none of them list the size of the surge tank or lift pump lol. What sort of walbro lift pump are you looking at? Wish e85 was commonly available over here...tho to be fair Im gonna be using mine on the street mostly so probably not practical lol...but still. lol

For this engine I'm planning to get an internal lift pump surge tank and two Bosch 044 pumps for the surge tank to engine, but I'm just after an idea for the actual surge tank and lift pump...what size surge tank would I need? What brands have you guys use and found good? And what kind of in tank lift pump would I need? As above engine setup will be RB30det with t04z aiming for 500rwhp

Okay, probably won't really be needed then, I'm only really planning to rev limit it at about 8000-8250 or so, so the hydraulic lifters will be able to handle that correct?

Okay, so basically if I do get the solid lifters get cams to suit that not hydraulic lifters lol. Still a bit undecided as to whether I really need solids?

Awesome, if you don't mind my askin how much did it sting you? PM me if you want. Let me know how it works out for ya and how easy it is to install Sounds good lol, now I don't know much bout cams so forgive me if this is a stupid question, if I go ahead with the solid lifter conversion will this affect how much lift there'll be in the head?

Already have a 25 head to use haha plus over here at least 26 heads are ridiculous prices, waaay more than doing a solid lifter conversion anyway lol (seen a bare rb26 head, ie no valves valve springs cams or cam gears going for near $1800 lol), and since i'm gonna have the 25 head apart to be reconditioned anyway... which brands make a good solid lifter kit for rb's?

I found the NZ version, it's $1200 nz...darn you auzzies and your exchange rate etc lol will have a look into the lifters and see what I can find out, short on time atm haven't looked yet Haha I checked out a few videos of t04z + worked cam rb's and they do sound f***ing AMAZING! lol More looking for midrange power than huge lag tho...do you think the Kelford 272's 9.35 or the 262 9.3 would still respond pretty well without lagging like a freight train?

Yeah, i was never planning on using the standard cams, just wanted to know their specs so I can get an idea of what sorta increase any aftermarket ones were. For those ones (H182B) I would only have to get the head clearanced for them to work ok? Also I cant really tell from the website, I assume the prices are US $?

Haha and somehow I think it's only gonna get worse not better so still need some idea on cams, anybody have ideas? Basically want mild gain but don't wanna have to modify the head extensively (doing full recon, mild port, reseat valves and aftermarket valve springs, adjustable cam gears) anybody know what stock cam specs are for r32 25de head?

Yeah, I know it's a bit over the top, but i'd rather do it once and do it right, and I just have a feeling that I'd probably end up changing to the t04z later on anyway so I figure I'm just saving myself time lol And yeah I'm pretty sure I'm gonna get addicted to power hunting (I've already upped my power goal from when I started) so this is playing it safe lol

Yeah fair enough, i'll have a look around see what I can find out Yeah, they're doing my r34 GTR VSpec II Nur...after i win lotto lol yeah i did think about it but in the end it was just too expensive, plus to be honest i'm not looking for a car that insane lol

sweet as, yeah i know a few good fabricators here i'll have a chat to, just wondering if any of the big companies make em off the shelf like lol yeah i'll check rips out too, already planning on using a rips intake so getting an exhaust manifold at the same time makes sense even to me haha

My old man was sitting at a red light one day, idiot next to him was towing a hired trailer and on a cellphone(still legal here in NZ at that stage) the left turn arrow went green and cellphone boy thought it was general green light, floored it through the intersection, classic 1950's ford went straight into trailer, lifted it up in the air, trailer comes back down on the ford and completely totals it, luckily nobody hurt but I really felt for the guy who spent 15 years doing up this ford....plus i had to wonder if cellphone boy's trailer hire insurance covered it...lol
