I have just had a set of HKS Step 1 Cams installed in my 94 Series 1 GTS-t. The exhaust cam is 264* P/N 2202-RN175. The problem is the CAS will not mate up to the HKS camshaft, with has a totally different arrangement to the stock camshaft. Has anyone experiecnced this problem and is there a HKS part that can replace the part that is riveted onto the CAS that engages in the camshaft?

Thanks in advance

Ian

so you have it sorted now?

Nooo...not yet dnb...far from it....I am going to try and locate a R34 CAS and that should solve the problem, but apparantly R34 CAS's are hard to locate. Didnt really need all this drama..If the right cams had have been sent to me from Japan, this should never have happened.

Thanks dnb

yeah thats crap. have you installed them yet? maybe you can get them to send the proper ones? or a cas if youve installed them

Yes the cams are installed along with new timing belt and tensioners, water pump, seals. Dont want to take them out and send them back to Japan..I'll have to find a way of getting the CAS to work.

Thats kinna odd isnt it? why would you have a star drive CAS? I thought all the non-neo RB25 had half circle drive?

I have a HKS 256 exhaust cam P/N 2202-RN171 and it has a half circle drive and my CAS is also half circle drive. So doesnt this mean you need to look for R33 CAS?

btw, Im also looking for a CAS as mine is stuffed :(

I think its the opposite to what your saying lukits, the Series 1 and Early Series 2 have the star drive and the Late Series 2 and Neo R34 have the half circle drive in the CAS connection.

I have a Star Drive CAS working perfect for sale now. You can have it for $200 + postage.

Thanks lukits

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
