So I got the usual HKS cams for my car 256 intake and 264 exhaust and also got myself some adjustable cam pulleys.

Here's where my confusion is... I gave said parts to my mechanic to install and he said when he tried to put the intake cam in the bolt patterns didn't match and because I was going adjustable cam pulleys that intake cam wouldn't work.

So I said fair enough just get the cam that I do need...................

on closer inspection of the box of the new cam say rb20 264

stock code of the cam I bought is 2202-RN172 and the new one is 2202-RN174

Is this possible to do? Someone please explain to me what is happening here?!?!

:P:P guys

you have an rb20/26 inlet gear. so you need an rb20 cam. The only difference is the front end where the gear bolts up.

Shouldn't you have figured this out before buying stuff?

You're atleast in a position to do a direct comparison between a 264/264 non vct cam combo vs a 256/264 with VCT. I would expect the 256 with VCT will be the choice for drivability.

I most definitely should have figured this out before buying stuff but unfortunately just didn't come across the information so bought out of ignorance.

However after receiving the 256 inlet cam I knew I would either be keeping that and having VCT or getting a new cam to run adjustable pulleys.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. My mechanic told me it would work fine but I just like several sources and more importantly a SAU person :P

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!

      I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
