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.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
