cams are great

BUT, if you do go down this route, grab matching spring lifters, and have the head fitted with new valve stem seats and seals, valve head guides

port and machine the head for optimal enhanced flow

with the new tomei springs, poncams, new ported/flowed head... you'll love the difference.

but then again afterwards you'll be leaning towards turbocharging your n/a r34

:P

Thanks soo they would be ok like 9.25 lift?

I think I'm going to do it.

With emanage ultimate tuned, 2.5" cat back, high flow cat, turbo injectors, turbo fuel pump and regulator, cams and valve springs.

I think I should make decent power!

I'll keep you guys updated =]

when buying new cams, the "stage" or "type" is just a marketing term. research and find out what would be best suited for what you intend on doing with the car

im guessing your putting it in a rb25?

machine work isnt really needed but recomended to take the cylinder head in to a reconditioner and get them to do a vacuum test pressure test surface grind and change valve stem seals

also get them to check that the standard valve springs will suit the cam or you may need to replace them

since the rb25 is hydrualic you wont need to do anything with the lifters, unless you convert it to solid shim lifter which the clearances will have to be set

spring base washers (or as some people call the spring seats but they are just washers) dont need replacing

guides dont need to be changed unless they have wear, if the reconditioner says they cant find the guides if they are needed, tell them to get 24 x rb26 intake guides

porting, decking, chamber matching/ grinding all extras depending on what your chasing

if you want to turbo it later all you have to do is adjust the intake cam and exhaust cam seperation and it will suit a turbo

hope that helped

the rb25 neo runs solid lifters from factory like the rb26's

The tomie type B are 260 duration by 9.15mm and are designed as a "drop in" cam so you wont need machining to fit the cams. Springs would be a nice addition if you're planning on reving the thing (which i hope you are otherwise theres no point getting the cams haha)

fair enough, (still learning myself)

though since its a shim setup you might need to check the base circle of the cam to the top of the bucket

thanks mate!

And yer I do plan on reving it as high as I can go.

Ahhahaha

so springs have been in my mind but it's the money that gets in my way.

The cams are bought by the way...

Just waiting for them to come!

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
