Satanic.

I promise that if you don't tell us how to get better results with our cams gears, that I will ban you and eat your first born.

I'm hungry.

Munna. There IS a gain to be had, depends on the dyno and the car and all those other things.

Do a search for something like "Cam* Gears dyno" and you will find a fair few throads about them.

Basically you retard the exhaust wheel by about 4 degrees and readjust base timing. It brings your torque curve over a little and gives up to about 10rwkw gain at the top.

Everyones experiences have been slightly different.

I just KNOW that from my experience to date (Satanic, I'm waiting for further information) that they have no effect on Neo engines.

Satanic.

Don't make me kill you and eat you.

went thought the first 5 pages and didnt find anything on exhaust cam wheel with a stock motor. but I did a guy who had good results puttering rb26 cams into a rb20. But others having problems doing the same thing. Wonder how this would go on a rb25.

hurry up and tell us Satanic or else :D

cheers

Alright alright... don't have to get so nasty about it; I haven't checked back here for a little while :ermm:

The email is at home, I'll post it up word for word when I get home :cheers:

Also, while I'm here - can anyone direct me to a ENGLISH installation guide for the Poncams?

The stuff in Japanese has a lot of pictures which is great, but I would like every single detail.

The cam gears go sweetly on the RB26.

Massive gains for cheap.

On the RB25 (neo/non-neo) however im yet to really see a worthwhile gain on cams/cam gears on the stock turbo

Its either a case of people are ALL setting them up wrong and getting stuff all gain (if any)

OR

The people that do get gains, didnt have the car timing running correct to begin with.

So during the installation of the cam gear this has corrected the incorrect timing setting, and the better timing has resulted in a 15rwkw gain and better midrange, but not the cam gear itseld

Just my thoughts on the gains on the RB25

That would make sence Nismoid. I will not be convinced that this is a worthwhile mod with the stock turbo intill I hear of some other results with all the details

cheers

    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
