Hi just been wondering, would these HKS cams ( parts number 2202-RN126) suite a stock RB26dett??

it has the following specifications:

INLET 272 degrees, lift is 8.7 , step 1 cam( ss cam)

i thought the life is 9.15 on a RB26DETT?? do i need to change the springs??

sorry if this sounds dump.

cheers guys!

Why do you want 272's on a stock motor? They are designed for higher horsepower turbos running at higher rpm's than what you will be able to currently run (e.g GT-RS, T04Z etc).

The Tomei 260 degree poncams are the pick of the bunch for mildly modified engines (2530's, N1's etc) so would be ample for stock turbos. They are straight drop in, assuming your current shims arent worn to badly. If they are you will need to reshim the head at an average cost of $10 per shim.

i thought cams would improve my low-end torque as well as responce even at 12 psi?? wouldnt they?

more than likely not.

its a stock motor, you'd get as much of a gain from $150 cam gears as you would from $600 cams

    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
    • I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that. 
    • You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
