Yup !!

After fitted all those necessary power up goodies, then the traction issue. How about roll the rear guards as wide as possible, then the widess possible rear tires you can fit, say 285 - 305mm wide. hmm MADDD !!

Then you can drop the clutch at around 6000rpm with full traction you setted up for like my mates fat ass gts-t33. See !! POWER + TRACTION = 2FAST 2FURIOUS ........... Good luck mate.... cheers

* Exhaust Cam Gear ($250)

* Boost to 10-12psi ($200)

* PowerFC ($2000)

* Good quality tyres ($1100)!

* Pineapples ($150)

Forget the bigger turbo, the extra power you make out of it will be lost in hitting boost and putting the power to the ground. You want a constant steady power curve to give you instant power and the stock turbo will deliver more than enuff power for this.

If your -really- after a 'bigger' turbo just get the stock turbo hiflowed, once again it will deliver more than enuff power and will boost up similar to the stock turbo.

Now how many people spend heaps of money on their engine but forget that somehow they actually have to put all that power to the ground? Do yourself a favour and buy a set of good quality tyres (back atleast).

Pineapples will give the rear end better squat and will force the car into launching harder in a straight line which is exactly what you need.

Note: The only experience I have is reading forums, not putting theory into practice. But thats only until I get a good set of tyres.

Out of interest...how would you rate your old R33 to the GTR in the street? Your GTST with semi slicks for daily driving wold had to have been a weapon....it had PUNCH!!! I cried when i got back in my car :)

"It is pretty difficult to beat a WRX off the line.. Even GTR's have trouble.. WRX's are full time 4wd that is why they break so many gearboxes."

I manage to keep most Rexes honest in the wet, and the dry.....90% of the time. Grip would have to be the big one and how your car puts power to the ground.

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      By myrbgivesmeheadaches · Posted

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?

      Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts

      There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
