R33 Gtst Cam Gears

[R33(00) (00)]

hello all i had my timing belt replaced with a gates racing belt a couple of days ago and an adjustable exhaust cam put on it, i know i should have replaced bothe gears but i didnt, i also ordered a clear cover for the set up that arived today. i just went to put it on wen i descoverd that the intake gear has a large cylinder pertruding from it, which is preventing me from puttin the clear cover on. i have seen this clear cover on some rb25s before with standard gears on it. is there any way i can put this cover on without modifying the cover. please let me know

hi, i am doing the exact same thing atm, and had to take the thing off at a mechanics. be careful if u do it at home, it will screw with the timing.

good luck

ok so u can take that bulge off of the intake side can u

that cylinder as you call it is your Variable Valve Timing Actuator. Didn't the clear cover come with the raised bit to accomadate it? from what i understand some of the 33s didn't have VVT (i think) so maybe you got a cover for that type, without the raised section. another thing is that from what i've heard its hard (or impossible?) to run an adjustable camgear on the intake side of a VVT engine without heavy modification.

those clear cam gear covers are for GTRs... if you want one for a GTST you might have to wait for PSI parts to finish theirs...

don't put an adjustable cam gear on there....i think you will end up with oil intended for the VCT pissing out??
