Anyone got an RB25/Rb26 adjustable cam gear not on their car (or easily accessible on their car) that we could use as a guide?

Just trying to see whether an RB25 adjustable cam gear would fit on an RB30? If anyone knows the answer to this question without having to stuff around, please tell us :cheers:

IF not, anyone want to offer the services of their cam gear so we can measure it?

I am under instructions from my mechanic not to take my cover off to match it up cause it will stuff the ignition timing.. so I'm after some help from you guys :cheers:

.. although I really don't know whether I should be helping out VL owners .. who should have bought a *skyline* :cheers: (I feel dirty and violated)

yes.. exactly same thickness.. teeth pattern and bolt holes.. couldn't be closer match.. 10 years, one camgear design - i like it.

you should have no problems with the adjustable..

nah.. its all same .. i put it right next to it.. I should have taken a photo but I was lazy. If you are still unconvinced you can borrow my spare one and compare them side by side yourself.

I knew RB20 and RB26 exhaust side was same, was never sure whether it went far back as RB30's. This was a non-turbo SOHC head btw, it's possible on a VLT head its different (the stock cam is slightly different on them between n/a and turbz)

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.

      This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
