Ok I Have Been Doing A Bit Of A Search On Adjustable Exhaust Cam Gears On A R33 Rb25det With Tomei Poncams. I See Some People Dont Seem To Adjust The Gear At All Once Fitting The Poncams. Is This Right?

Is There Any Point Of Having The Adjustable Exhaust Cam Gear On There If It Isn't Moved From 0 ?

Any Help Would Be Greatly Appreciated

The search would have also revealed the reason most don't bother, that being they seem to lose power when adjusted off zero degrees. I think this also answers your second question.

ok might just set the gear to 0 and leave it at that.

thanks

there is no point to them if you are just going to leave it at 0. the whole reason people put them on is because they are adjustable. you take that out of the equation and you've got nothing.

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
