Group Buy # 4 Arospeed Adjustable Cam Gears, By Popular Demand, By Popular Demand

[r33kid]

i paid $155 + $10 delivery?

Guys the reason why hanyou paid $155 is because i had a set returned to me that didnt fit a CA18 from the last group buy.

As for this current gb we didn't reach our target therefore the price of $185 DELIVERED.

Ill put up a list of all people invovled so you can see.

If Hanyou want's to cause me problems maybe i should charge him the full price, this is what i get for doing hanyou a favour.

[hanyou]

r33kid: i didnt know you were doing me a favour and by no means was i trying to say you were rorting the others. i merely stated how much i paid. if its gna cause you probs with the other members im happy to pay the difference so its fair to everyone else

sorry again mate.

[SLIPPERY]

nah hanyou you picked up a bargain...leave it as is

R33kid: RE: PM, no dramas. I didnt know everyone else was paying that price

[r33kid]

ok its all cool, im not here to make a profit, otherwise i would have charged hanyou the full price.

Im here to help members, and im sure i have helped many, therefore one day i will get help in return.

whats an eta on the parts??

[Trav33]

I think your mechanic has never installed gears before, all members have installed there's with no issues.

Do a search.

Probably posting in the wrong forum, but this may be of interest to other buyers. I've done a search, and haven't heard of anyone having problems installing the gear on the inlet cam, but this is what my mechanic wrote:

On a rb25 they have a cam advance set up on them VCT, this pulley and cam are different sizes to all other rb inlet cams and they dont make a gear to fit. The std pulley which contains the variable cam advance has an adjustment on the back which we have adjusted, You effectively have 2 vernier gears on your engine now.

Can anyone comment on this? My mechanic is well known for working on Skylines in Adelaide, so surprised that his views conflict that of skyline owners! But he is telling me he couldnt install the cam gear on the inlet cam, only the exhaust cam for the above reason. Thanks for any advice...

Could this be the answer to your problem(see below)

and as a quick reference

RB26 can have 2 wheels inlet exhaust

RB25 only needs exhaust

RB20 can have 2 inllet and exhaust.

[Trav33]

No, i knew that RB25 only needs the exhaust for power gains, and changing the inlet cam gear will not give any additional power. But i still wanted to change the inlet for appearance, for when i put a clear cover on. And reading posts, the cam gear SHOULD have fit on the inlet side.
