you ever done camgears squizz?

I just ordered my ex. camgear before from japan.. on its way.

Next dodgy mechanic day its camgear time! mj wants to do his too.

Yeah with a mate of mine, might get him to come and do it.

intercooler piping got.....cost a little more than expected, but isn't that always the way....

Now just need to pick up the cooler this arvo and stash it all away from the missus :Paranoid:

The boot is a marvellous place...

Why not do it when you do your 100K'K service?

true.. but i figured i want to check the timing belt while its off.. if the belt is ok.. screw the 100,000km service for a while. ITs probably been done in japan anyhow, i got a sticker on there. And i want to do the camgear myself and save my cash for a mega tune.. sometime, one day on another car i'll want to do it so would be nice to know how it is done.

The other items i WAS going to do the other weekend, but they can wait...they'll live.

As far as i can see, if the waterpump fails i'm gonna know about it pretty quick (thats what a temp guage is for)

warwick: LOL.. you're hiding performance parts from the mrs! classic! :thumbsup:

Sad huh.....but it's prolly for the best

I have been thinking of coming "semi-clean" and telling her I have spent a certain amount of money, but not telling her the real cost, maybe tell her it cost half of what it did, then I could actually fit the stuff here rather than having to skulk off and do it at someone elses place

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
