Hey ya'll - so i didn't realise you needed to undo the bolts to get cam gears off while you still have the timing belt on....i know i'm an idiot. SO i put in one of the little bolts that hold the spring in the inlet cam gear thinking (completely stupidly) it would provide enough torque for me to undo the big bolt at the centre of the inlet cam gear (yeah we're talking about me being dumb enough to try to use a 7mm bolt to provide enough opposing force to undo a 3/4" bolt...anyone that sees me in the street, just slap me)

So as expected the 7mm bolt snapped off in less than a second and i'm left with a tiny 4mm diameter thread to extract. Anyway, after several attempts to use an ease out to extract this thing, it is well and truely f*cked. So if anyone has one of these lying around, don't let it go to waste. Sell it to me!!

I'm on the GOld Coast but will pay for postage of course. If you can get it to me by the end of the week I'll pay for express postage too.

Cheers

Dane

just so people know what sort of cam gear i'm talking. its the stocl inlet cam gear from an R33 Gtst with the VCT intact. Like the one above (mine's painted black and doesn't have any of the bolts in at the moment.)

Pretty sure thr r34 neo one is the same, if it is, ive got one, and am coming up to brissy this weekend, ill have a look tomorrow

awesome - it it's the same I'll be happy as one of those cops in that stuff.

Generally, with the timing pulleys, because of the variable timing on the inlet one, you only change out the exhaust one. The aftermarket cams fit the std pulleys.

really? damn - i thought that when you change to aftermarket cams you can go to adjustable cam gears on both and figured that's what most people with aftermarket cams would do.....

p.s. i tried the nissan wreckers in qld - can't remember the name, but they're "nissan-specific" wreckers. well anyway absolute wanker!! i would not recommend them to anyone!

bump because I'm a little worried the one on the way is for an R32 which appears to be a different part number which worries me.

Anyone got one for an R33 just in case? hell i'll buy it in addition to the one coming just for piece of mind

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
