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

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
