Dobz, your setup sounds quite similar to the kit that otomoto sells.

When you say if you can afford it go vcam, do you mean vct in general or hks vcam specifically? The hks option is continuously variable as I understand, not a on off step like vct.

Ash: do you mean people retrofitting neo vct to the 26 or a full variable jobbie?

Obviously for vct you've got ottomoto, and I know of someone in qld who did it, but isn't around anymore. I think racepace also did, of did they just use vcam?

I'll also keep looking around for adaptors then, didn't think there was anyone left that made them.

There was a guy down in Melbourne who was running his own version of VCT on a 26. Had a silver R32 and was as most VicDrift events, I think his name was Rowan Nash?

He put up a few posts about it and said how well it worked, I hit him up for some info but all he said was that it was a retrofit from a 25. Might be worth hitting him up and seeing what he had to say.

sneaky pete, the difference with the otomoto kit is it requires a custom cam and fitting which feeds oil through the length of the cam to the vct. The way I am going to do it will allow me to use whatever aftermarket rb25 neo cam i want.

I meant hks v-cam if you can afford it. Being able to tune a constantly variable camshaft would have a big advantage over on/off adjustability.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
