Hi!

Does anyone have any good info or guide to a RB26 vct build/setup.

Im currently building a RB30/26 here in Sweden and going for around 500whp on E85 with a high comp setup, and looking in to do a vct build if it's not at a NASA level of build..

Looking to make the engine as responsive as i can without going for at 3.4L kit..

No, not the HKS system that costs more than my car, i have seen people using the rb25 stock nvcs on the rb26.

No one in Sweden have done it, and it's very little info about it on the web about the actual swap more than it can be done...

With an RB30 unless it's a total pig should smash 500HP on E85 with the right turbo/s.

Don't quote me on it but I read somewhere that even the HKS V Cam setup only increased performance marginally.

  • 6 months later...

and was some talk here about using 25 vct parts, I think elite racing/the dan was doing something if you want to read through

The Dan stoped responding my PM:S and did not give away any info (i said i was willing to buy all the parts from elite racing but doing the machine work on the head myself du to de freight cost sending my head from Sweden to AU and back again..

But still on square one so if anyone have any Good input on cam choice etc i would be happy..

VCT will only give you 20 degrees correct?

Vcam uses the VQ35 hydraulic actuator, usually giving 40 degrees, but Nismo made a modified 50 degree setup for it. If you can get that to work, as in not hit the valves on pistons, it will give some pretty good midrange gains over VCT I imagine.

    • I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.
    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
