I was trying to fit my tomei poncams last night and everything was fine until........

I tried to fit the Cas unit to the front of the exhaust cam, its got a different kind of 'conection'.

Is there a difference between some of the rb25's cas unit? Mine has teeth and one locating lug that sticks out, the cam has two locating lugs...

I live in the uk and bought the cams from nengun so I am going to have to find some way of making them work, even If i have to buy a different Cas unit.

please help, anyone with photos of diffenert cas or cams?

thanks

Tom

also believe that the base circle is different on them too..

what is the product serial number for the cams you have ?

what is the month and year of your car as well??

pre oct 97 R33's all use the same cam regardless of series.. post oct 97 use the Series 2 option poncam, then r34 is different again.

The month and year of the car is unknown as its in my s13and I forgot he car I got it out of...... oh well...

I do know its a series two, I think it was a 96 or 97.

The cams came in a box that I chucked out, but they were for an r33. Maybe a late on with the r34 cas??

I have spoken to some guys here in the uk and I'm sure I have r34 cams so I'm going to fit r34 cas.

Thanks for the help lads.

143050

ECR33 Series 2 (RB25DET) - Duration: IN, EX 256 Lift: IN,EX 8.5mm

Thats what its says on the nengun web site.

So if I have these cams and they dont fit???? I must have a series 1 motor? unless thery sent the wrong ones... but i chucked the box now.

How can I tell quickly if i have a series 1?

Can someone post a photo of series 1 and 2 or r34 cas? I just want to know what car has the cas driven by these cams.

thanks

If you have a series one you should have a ignitor unit at the end of your coil pack rack at the back of the engine on the black plastic cover. Series 2 25's dont have a seperate ignitor pack.

also the throttle position sensor will look like a single unit on the S1 and look like a double on a series 2 .. but that still doesn't help the fact that a S2 made before oct 97 will still not be able to use these.

get a r34 or my98 onward r33 crank angle sensor. or buy new cams. you can sell your existing crankangle sensor easy enough.

not sure on base circle but

and you need to swap the two triger wires around in the plug.. ie green/yellow green/red i think. the black ones earth the black/white is power

Ok mine is a series 1. it has the ignitor at the back on the top.

I'm thinking these are series 2 cams as I cant see how they woulb send r34 ones and i'm sure the box said r33 rb25det.

Is it ok to swap series1/2 cas. how much are they on here as I only found one tuner over here and they want nerly $1200au . that was for the r34 though.

I still would like to find an image of what cams / cas haved what drive, just to be sure what I have.

If they are 34 cams i'll just sell them.

I quickly made this models up to show what the difference is. If anyone can be sure what the tomei one is for, then please tell me.

My old cams have this to drive the cas - images 1 and 3

the tomei cams have this kind of drive, anyone know what car this is for? - images 2 and 4

once again, thanks for the help.

I am bumping this thread up because I seem to have the same problem. My motor is a SII rb25det (without ignitor). I just bought some tomei poncams part# 143050 and the cam angle sensor is different. Is it confirmed that I have to get an r34 cas and that it will work with my motor?

Bump :)

Was this ever resolved? What cams are in the very late S2's with the black CAS? Is it cams from the Neo engine???

According to wiki the RB25DET and Neo cams are different profile:

RB25DET Camshaft duration 240°in, 240°ex lift: 7.8mm in, 7.8mm ex

RB25DET NEO Camshaft duration 236°in, 232°ex lift: 8.4mm in, 8.7mm ex

So Nissan would have either have had to machine a special cam to accept the black CAS, or just take the upcoming Neo cam - when they were building the very late S2's.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
