Well I finally got my hands on a set of Tomei Poncamshafts they are second hand and wondering if they are original as I cannot find any document to support its markings.

I figure from assumption that these are real, one because the guy is really honest and two sort of makes sense.

So the Markings are either a 115 or A2691XR which I figure "2691" stands for.. 260 duration and 9.15 lift i.e 26.91

But I wanted confirmation from someone as I know Poncams are not TOMEI stamped but PROCAMS are so making it harder.

If someone could confirm this for me please?

Cheers

physical difference you can measure is the cam gear drive on the poncams was larger than standard (we had to drill the cam gears out)

WTF??? You don't drill them out.

Were you using aftermarket gears?

and to answer the other guys question. Just measure the cam yourself and find out what lift/duration it has.

Is A2691XR stamped on the rear of the camshaft? Thats exactly what mine had.

I think if u do a search for say 2691 I think it will bring up a forsale thread where a guy has those part numbers listed on his tomei cams.

No measuring tools, and no standard shaft to measure against i.e still in engine.

R33 you nicked my sig!!!

You don't need a standard shaft.

You do need measuring tools. And just calculate the duration and lift. But anyway, have fun with your new cams

There were no marking on mine either. I was a bit shocked when we pulled them out a few months later, i was thinking the guys who originally put them in ripped me off and i was using that excuse for the 10-15rwkw we were missing before to after.

But it was all good after we measured them :P

Good to see you finally got them Nathaniel,but dont be suprised if you dont see a big difference on the dyno. The pedal and through the bum of your seat is where you will notice the difference. Not as must pedal needed to get up to certain speed ect.. I noticed the improvement more when i was driving the car off boost.

Thanks Dave, I never intended to take the car to this level (but am already looking further) any improvement will tickle a smile from my face.

Thanks for the help peoples.

Noone ever does,once the bug has bitten there is no turning back.

os giken gears, the drive on the poncams was significantly larger than the standard cams

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
