Chad the idea of adjustable cam gears is to shift the power and as you can see below, SK only changes the EX gear and retards it approx 4 deg as a starting point.

I bought 2 JJR adjustable cam gears from Just Jap and should've only bought one so I have a spare gear if you're interested. The gurus interstate i.e. Duncan etc swear by the JJR gears.

Hi Rob, by retarding the exhaust camshaft timing I am aiming for more mid range, but I can get a bit of top end as well. There is also some faster spooling to gained as well. What it achieves is more complete combustion, before the exhaust valves open. Plus you get slightly higher combustion pressure, for more torque.

You don't get something for nothing though, it also means you get less overlap, the inlet valve isn't open at the same time as the exhaust valve for as long. This means the incoming inlet charge (air and fuel) doesn't help push the exhaust out. This is why it works well with a bit of extra boost (above standard) as that offsets the shorter "push" time.

cheers:

On inlet cam timing adjustment? Very little difference, not worth the effort.

Cheers

oh well, 3kw is as much power as a sneeze, not much difference :D

its 3 kw that would push you past 200rwkw mark wont it damo

plus it was a much much cleaner run

Hey guys, my mate try'd to upload that video onto his computer but he couldn't get it to work, maybe cos the camera is pretty old :D

i think the extra 3 kw was made be the water that was sprayed onto the intercooler on the last run.

Awesome, let me know what you want for it.

and they've still got their old prices listed......I think their next batch will be dearer due o the $AU.

Chad it's still sealed in the plastic wrapper, you can have it at the old price (what I paid for it) and save on freight too

    • Wow its been a while since Ive signed in for sure.  Time gets away... Good question. So much was different between the two designs.  The RB315 was a test to see if I could do it.  Limitations were for the most part due to local machining capability.  Tolerances were an issue.  The 3.15 used a single OD dry sleeve, and was almost the same as a kakimoto spacer plate engine, except I used a plate design similar to the OS Giken plate.  I did not make the top flanges thick enough either.  I can't be sure if it was machining tolerances, or thermal distortion of the sleeves, but the engine did produce quite a bit of blow by.  The modified 87mm RB30 crank was also an issue, and was no where near as nicely balanced as the forged 90mm crank in the 3.4. The 34 was a next level build.  The sleeves were stepped for max thickness, and were a semi-wet design breaking though into coolant completely in the block.  Minimum thickness was 3.75mm and max was 5mm with the 90mm bore, and the new spacer plate also fully supported the tops of the sleeves closed deck style.  This combined with far superior CNC machining, and a cylinder hone finish that the machinist does on 3000hp pro stock cars resulted in no noticeable blow by at all.   In the end the 3.15 was removed to swap in the 3.4.  I discovered the modified RB30 crank had partially sheared the woodruff key on the balancer.  That was all that was wrong with it, but it did make the engine a paperweight at that stage. $1100 to make another crank for an engine with blow by issues was not worth it, considering I'd started playing with all Nitto forged internals instead. I hope you found this interesting.   Cheers, Ian
    • All their parts, when order directly off them are made to order. So you're able to customise fitment of things or delete things. E.g. I asked for no throttle cable bracket, no IACV port, etc. on my plenum. In hindsight, I should have asked for an IAT port/fitting welded on, hindsight no. Should have bought a M2 or 3 lol.
    • 25de in c33 a31 is different to r32/r33 s1 which is different to r33 s2 & r34 so you can vaguely do whatever man.
    • That's the pink sticker type, you haven't said what car so no idea if it's correct, 25de or det is the same in the same model.
