Guys

I'm looking a getting a 2nd hand RB26DETT for my R32 GTR (current motor broken)

The engine I'm looking at is equipped with a pair of HKS CAMS (don't know what size) , adjustable cams gears and also has 700cc injectors with a few other go fast bits. I have a pair of N1 (not group A) turbos to fit up. I'm getting a leak down test done - but a compression test (cold) delivers 170 across all six pots.

My question is - how will these cams effect the drivablity of the car. It's a street driven GTR (daily driver) and I'm targeting a modest power output (250/270 rwkw). I have herd that these cams MAY introduce lag - is this true. The reason I have N1's is because I don't want too much lag down low in the rev range - and I'm not chasing too much top end power anyway.

(not too much experience with cams - obviously)

Also - I'll like to start with the std ECU and swap over to a PFC at a latter date - I thinking this may not be an option with this engine. I'm assuming the std ECU will not deal with these types of mods - yes ?

talk to me guys (and Galls of course)

very difficult to tell without pulling them out, one quick way is to pull the oil cap off the top left rocker cover and look at the profile of the cam but you need to know what your looking for (basically the rounder the cam the wilder but its hard to explain.

Also if no head work has bee required to fit the cams they cant be too wild.

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
