Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

Scotty we have a car in ATM with this bit broken off

The cas is perfectly fine if you get it in the right tooth

Just get a timing light and chuck it on and make sure it's in the right spot before...... Giving it to it

It should be fine that way even with the broken half but it's completely up to you of you want to replace...... Then I buy cam :devil:

Yeah after a lot a research and asking around Ive found this is actually pretty common

It isn't that expensive, not in the grand scheme of things. And not when you are betting your engine against a 20 year old CAS. Knowing what I know now, a crank trigger and appropriate ecu would have been among the first mods to every skyline I have owned

I definitely agree that its a far better option. If i had the money I would make the change.

Potentially, but more reliability is the real key.

Reliability is always key when making good HP

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
