[Rav3nNZ]

Hey guys,

I recently bought an r34 gtt, im the second owner in nz, the first had it imported at 93,000k and i dont know if the cambelt has been changed.

if someone could please help, pics would be great. just need to see it.

all the visible belts have been changed already so im hoping it has too.

cheers,

Joshua

Pretty Simple mate.

Unbolt the CAS and remove (be careful they damage easily when droppped)

Then there are some allen key bolts to undo on the cover.

Then remove. (this is only for the top section of the Timing cover which I assume is all your after)

Enjoy and Make sure you dont break the CAS

EDIT: mark the cas and bolts so as not to send the timming outta wack to badly when you reassemble it all, Check the base timing and adjust as nessicary.

thanks mate, just wanted to make sure theres no hidden bolts or screws that i needed to take out. how do i check the base timing and adjust it? is this a really obvious thing once i take it off?

If you dont know how to take it off its a good sign you shouldn't be fiddling with it. Stuff it up and you can kiss your engine goodbye...
