If listed all the go fast bits on my car, people would think AMAGAD BUILD THREAD??? but it performs rather.. averagely.

Not bad, just averagely.

It has Tomei type B's in it (engine is 2.8L), adjustable cam gears, and I'm not 100% certain that it's all the way it should be. It probably isn't actually wrong, but I doubt it's completely right so it'll bug me until it's checked.

I've also read many places on SAU that having an adjustable exhaust cam gear is of benefit. So I got one, with my cams, and no one has ever actually adjusted it to see if it does anything. Just a "she'll be right mate its designed to be on +0" in which case why even make the item?

Fair enough, have you had opinions from the tuners etc..?

Is it currently with a reputable workshop?

Curious to know which one its at. PM it if you want to keep the workshop private

bahahahah.

they are race cams for the 1.3 in the micra..... going stupidly cheap. but i dont know enough about duration/lift etc to even contemplate buying them....

I could ask a mate if you REALLY wanted to know....

race cams for race head or just OEM head???

If OEM will certainly requiring machining. That's about all I know.......and IF I'm wrong well my disclaimer is this.......kiss my French something something dark-side :P

i have consulted the guru of all that is micra.

ghettofrank.

hopefully he should get back to me when he wakes up, but from what im reading your right ants...

this is tomei poncam spec. http://www.rhdjapan.com/tomei-camshafts-procam-poncam-cg13de.html

the engine it came out of must have been mental.

just be wary: procam is for solid lifters. poncam is for hydraulic. anything bigger than 280-290 degrees... you'd want solid.

Dont know much about those engines, but cams that big is like "I need to wait 15mins for my car to warm up before its possible to drive it under 40km/h" and the "my car doesnt make power less than 4krpm"

thanks man. will leave them the f**k alone then.

Seems to be some car enthusiasts on my street, there's been beemers, mercs, and now micra project cars in the carport.

give that micra kent a shout and see if he has any parts!

where you live?

Who needs a daily?

I have a workmate selling a 1995 integra Type R for ~ $2k with RWC

f**k me your kidding?

would have loved that 3 months ago.

prob would still buy if i had sold the clubby.

    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
