very good tyres and suspension tweaks...anything to help i guess but your right about spin city. Have you seen the 800rwhp+ supras going around in the usa on youtube? Hell they even got 1000hp beasts! I wont even bother launching the thing its pointless. Maybe roll ons on the freeway from 3rd gear :P

sounds like a mean build. What are the specs of your pistons? im using JE flat top pistons, but im worried about what the compression ratio is going to be. what is your dish/dome and deck clearance?

I just picked up my NEO head so ill be finding the CC of the chambers once i clean them and get a syringe and perspex :thumbsup: but i had a rough measure using a CD and measuring spoons and they look around 56cc.

CD and measuring spoon LOL, i love it. Im pretty sure thats about what i measures mine at. The flet top Pistons should work about right, thats what im using for my 25/30 NEO, and deending what the final measurements are, i could adjust the comp from about 8.4:1 to 9.2:1 depnding on th eheadgasket used

yea well im hoping they will be sweet. I initially got them custom made to suit vg30 rods for a better rod/stroke ratio but i was going to use them with an R32 RB25DE head i had. they have a bit of deck clearance so i have room to deck the head if need be as well as play round with gasket thickness, so i dont think it will be a problem :blink: . also, since i got custom cams made (276 10.5mm lift) for the r32 head, i figured that to run them in the r34 head im going to need to run the r32 CAS, and im not going to run vvt, just block up the oil feed hole

also, just out of interest, i thort r34 heads had bigger valves but they look the same as my r32 head. again i dont have proper measuring tools on me im gona bring them home from work on the weekend to suss everythin out

I heard that the exhaust valves are bigger then the rb26's. They actually used r33 cp pistons which gave a higher comp ratio on the Neo head. But all technical aspects I would need to talk to the builder as my mechanical knowledge is little. It was pretty much drop my car off and let the workshop do their magic.

you wont be able to run those cams in the NEO head, the lift is too big.

Is that r33 rb25 or r33 rb26 pistons they have used ??

If it is either, youll need to run some serious race fuel as your comp is going to be over 10 to 1

These NEO heads are really interesting and WAY different to any other rb25 head.

Hey Spoolup, do you mean I cant run the cams Ive got? I know they dont direct fit, ive had to grind a tiny bit off where the lobe catches the head around the edge of the lifter. BUT, in the R32 head i wuld have had to cut shitloads out but in this head i only had to cut a little bit. Maby this is partly because the Neo Buckets are wider diameter than r33 lifters, and a totally different design even to the gtr lifters. so far so good. the other thing is te shims in the Neo buckets are exactly the same diameter as Subaru shims, so thats a cheap alternative I used to get the clearance on my cams right coz theyre way more common to find

Yes they are a great head.

Just install your cams and turn the cam until you have a valve at maximum lift, then check your lifter and see if the oil gallery that runs along the lifters ( inside the head ) is exposed. If so you can not use them as you will never get oil pressure.

With my setup anything over 9.8mm lift exposed the oil gallery.

Im in the process of building a new head and trying to get around this my using small base cirlce cams and tipping the valves ( extending them )

Cheers

The tips of each valve is built up a little with weld - they are then ground to the determined length. Its cheaper than 24 custom valves.

With aftermarket springs there is enough room to run up to 12mm lift with out the springs binding - its just the oil gallery issue that needs to be resolved.

ok, it seems your right but i think i have a plan. Im gona use gtr retainers and shims as they shim from underneath, so that will imitate the tipping your talking about. then, ill have to find some springs thatll be suitable or get some made, that shuldnt be too much of a prob. wat do ya think wise one?

    • That may not be so tricky with a changeover relay (again, with LED indicator only to reduce load on existing headlight + source)  30 to indicator + globe side 86 and 87 to headlight parker + 87a to original indicator + chassis side 85 to chassis/earth repeat on each corner, sorted, no diode required
    • There might have been some "hard core" decalcification going on in the cells to create that noise As for chargers, I stick all our cars on a trickle charger every few months to "clean out their pipes/cells", the Mrs battery in her Mistsu ASX is still running its OEM from new battery 10 years on, and that thing does alot of short drives, and it can sit around for ages without a good long run
    • I'm not sure the diode only will give the desired result. I'd probably approach it with a couple of relays (And you still might need a diode too!). You need to be able to break the constant feed from the headlight to the orange corner globe when the indicator is flashing. Not knowing which Skyline we're talking about specifically here too (And it may not matter, but I don't know the R34 column switches) you'd likely need to rewire the stalk, so that the indicator power itself no longer runs through the stalk too, as now you need it able to trigger a relay that will break the constant supply from the headlights to the indicator, then you'll need a separate relay to trigger the indicators to come on (Replacing the internal action of the indicator stalk).
    • Weird story from me My Toyota 86 was with Commbank comprehensive but for market value (who they use to underwrite is unknown) When I munted it beyond financially viable repair in 2020, rear end smashed in to the point it bent the rear quarter and roof, they knew I paid $31k cash for it because I told them, they still paid me out $38k, as all the 2017 limited edition variants with typical Km and condition were going for between $36-41k, so they did weird math and came up with $38k I never officially mentioned any of the mods that I had done, but as they were not the cause of the crash they were not fussed at all, the insurance inspector actually asked if I wanted to replace all the mods with the OEM stuff if I still had it laying around before they took the car I still came out of it behind though, because I had probably dropped $20k in it with the suspension (bent after the prang), wheels (bent as well) and "other" mods, that the inspector asked about But still, as the market value was higher than what I initially paid, and they paid out market value To say I was surprised with the outcome would be an understatement  Weird, but true, but probably just lucky with the inspector on the day I guess  Sadly, I don't think if I munted the old NC1 MX5 I would get the same result Meh, pay to play
    • Well, the car is back, all straight and shiny, for how long for is anyone's guess  After picking it up we went for a bit of a drive, Jebus I really enjoy driving this little thing, hopefully the weather let's us go for a nice long cruise this weekend as it will be out of my hands for at least a few days next week when it heads back into Mania on Monday It's weird, whilst I do always enjoy going for a drive, the NC makes me feel like a kid who has just got his first car, and they just want to drive wherever and whenever they can I really need to look into the MX5 Club of NSW
