Cam Gears For Rb26

[PAV34]

Thanks for that.

What was wrong with the old ones anyway?

[Beer Baron]

type of alloy and finish of the gear not suitable for use.

[Swiper the Fox]

Thanks for that.

What was wrong with the old ones anyway?

the outer gear material was far too soft and would wear rather quickly.

the Trust and OS giken ones are the pick of them if i was to be asked which i prefer.

Hey mate i did some research into this a little while ago and from what I gathered some of the cheap ones are not so good (ebay) but in saying that what someones conclusion was the bolts are cheap and freeze and if you change them over to some high tensile one they should be fine. Also stated that some of the timiming marks were out???

Anyway I have come to the conclusion that I will just get some JJR ones as they are 250 for the pair and have had heard no bad comments about them.

If anyone has anything to say please put it out there, would be interested as I am doing min in teh next couple of weeks.

Cheers

just copped some os giken ones, you pay 22000yen so $230 + postage along with all the other stuff i just bought too..

[abu]

$230 per gear or for the pair?

[Angus Smart]

os ones are only sold as a set

maybe its 240 with current conversion.

[abu]

Current conversion is shit so thats a fkn mad price

[DLOOOK]

which ones did Nismoid refer to, he said $150 for a set.

[Waza_GTR]

definately a good mod. I am running adjustable cam gears and Tomei poncams. Run the car in on the dyno set at zero then started putting some advance on the inlet, torque comes on earlier and steeper. I am getting 10psi boost at 2800prm.

[cefiro]

stock ones that are modified to be adjustable.

Its not hard for a fabricator with half an idea.

You just dont get the 'bling' of flashy ones, but then if your running a gear cover you'd never know anyhow

[monga]

Not really worth it, requires alot of time and labour to set them up right on the dyno also. So the initial cost will blow out after the tune ect.

[R31Nismoid]

eh?

You've gotta set-up an cam gears you use...
