HI! I want to install Tomei poncams 260\9.15 on mine rb26dett (r32). the motor completely the standard. What is required for correct work of the motor? Describe please all process in detail.

Take it to a mechanic....

They are designed as 'drop in' camshafts. There are no other parts required to do the job.

I would suggest replacing the timing belt and installing adjustable cam gears (if you want to go that way) as the same time. If your going the replace the cam belt, replace the idler pulley and the rocker cover seals.

Yes there are. You need to re shim the valve train to get the clearances right. So at minimum you need spare shims for that.

Also, if the motor is standard you are wasting your time installing type B Poncams as it won't improve performance in any meaningful way, just reduce midrange torque. If you must change cams the type A are a far better bet.

And a lil tip I learnt on Wednesday nite when I was on the dyno, set the zorst timing to 0 don't advance it or it will b laggy as

The exhaust cam on the Tomei's actually opens at 65 BBDC - the same as the stocker.

Actually the difference between the A & the B's is all in the exhaust cam - it has an extra 8 degrees duration on the B, ie 260 rather than 252.

That would make perfect sense. When i tuned deano1s GTR on wednesday Pulse had the cam timing all wacked. Inlet Was retarted Nd exhaust advanced. We set it all to 0 and made and extra 25kw and gained 60kw in the midrange.

Full boost was 5500 and now its 4300. 19psi.

what turbo is deano1 running?? worthwile mod for gtr running gt-ss pushing 300rwkw?

Deano 1 is running his stock N1 turbos. Steel wheel obviously.

People have made lots of power on stock cams. I think close to 600hp. But with big ass turbo's.

My car has the same turbos as deano s but with stock cams, mine is more responsive but doeant have the top end as deanos.

My car made 285rwkw

deanos made 300.2kw

How much boost? Im making 280rwkw, factory cams with GT-SS's on i think 16psi

Deanos is on 18.4psi 11.2afr.

Mine is on 18psi 11.2 afr. Both have really safe ignition. And as u can see reqlly safe afrs

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
