Hi,

This link was posted a while back by 'alexunder'. http://xenons30.com/reference.html

First link on that page is:

Model L20A, L24 Series Engine Service Manual- Complete 10.9MB PDF

It's an old manual but has pics of the timing chain and tensioner on several pages.

Am I missing something here?

To me it doesn't matter a toss where the chain is mounted because the timing marks are on the sprokets, not the chain. The chain is simply the tool that connects the 2 (camshaft & crankshaft sprokets) together.

I'm using an Kameari hardened chain & Kameari adjustable chain tensioner and I can assure you, there is no shiny links in the Kameari chain whatsoever, not even the joiners.

And the timing marks must be set with the engine at TDC on #1 cylinder.

I think u might be im not sure? :bunny: have a look on the service manual in first quote, open service manual, scroll down to page 59, left column #17 and read the *note*

I think Ghostrider is in the same boat as me...

the shinny links are of no importance if the bottom and top are on TDC... I guess they just help you confirm that you have it set right, and I guess further down the track might help you know if the chain has slipped or something...

I think they are only important when assembling the engine without the timing case on, so you don't know for sure that the bottom is on TDC...

You don't need to change the castor rod brackets to adjust the caster, just make the current rods adjustable by cutting the thread longer and adding an extra nut...

ITS ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:(:D:O:banana:

sorry had too!

now ill have to do a oil flush with new oil/filter and prob do the auto at the same time

any reccommendations on oil but no castrol, etc crap?

also with the auto is there such a thing as filter replacement? similar to a vn's auto service kit?

gawd.... just go into repco and ask for the filter kit, its like under $30

oil, depends on the km of the engine, and what your plans are. ask the repco dude...

its ok getting everything ordered through workshop next door so everything will be done by Wednesday

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
