Lucky.. Not sure if you can get any luckier having that cam belt hold together.

There's nothing to really line up.

Just bolt the cams and cam gears on and thats it.

Your tensioners.. You had them replaced? Were they new or did you just have the beaings replaced within the shell?

My mate said they were fine, 5000kms ago we did the belt in the 20 with a gates one and just transfered them to the 25

Whats the inside of the timing cover look like? Having the belt ride forward on the cam pulleys is a bit strange if the guide is installed correctly at the bottom. Is there anything else that may have rubbed through the belt? Was it over tensioned?

Cam seals don't look too healthy, whether it's the seal itself or the seal on the front cam cap is yet to be seen.

For it to dump 2L of oil out in the driveway points more towards a seal on the bottom of the engine though.

Timing cover looks fine except for oil and shreaded belt everywhere. The belt was moving backwards and hitting the backing cover, i measured the tension when pulling it out and reset the tension the same.

I would be looking at the idler and tensioner. if they are not correctly aligned they can push the belt either back or forward.

or one of the cam gears may not be sitting flat.

wow that is one rooted belt :pirate: glad your engine is still in one peice.

All the DET engines run the same belt if im not mistaken.

EDIT: should have also mentioned, because of the reduced ignition timing on this NA engine, i would be keeping a real close eye on the exhaust temps. don't want to end up melting stuff.

The boost controller i have is run through the computer but is turned off as i dont think i need any more boost at the moment :)

Ah, but in turning it on, you might have your boost regulated correctly.

It doesnt have to give you more boost, but it might well fix up the gate creep

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
