Anybody keen on these carbon fibre cam covers for the RB25DET engine ? Its got the hump for the VCT inlet cam to specifically suit the RB25DET.

$350 each, brand new. If interested, email me at [email protected] and I'll get the ball rolling.

Cheers.

any chance of getting rocer covers as well

if so i would be interested in them and the front cover ( i already have a coil pack cover )

There is no carbon rocker covers available for the RB engine, however, there is something I can suggest. How about applying genuine carbon fabrics over the top of your factory aluminium covers ? What you do is, strip the covers back to bare aluminium, then apply epoxy resins over the top, lay the carbon fabrics and seal it with more epoxy. If its done correctly, you will end up with carbon fibre rocker covers ! This technique is called 'wet carbon' and is commonly used on showcars (doors, roofs etc) where it is way too expensive to use traditional 'dry carbon'. You could either use epoxy resins or even 2pak clear as a top coat to seal it, you might need to do a bit of fine grade wet/dry rubbing in between coats to get that glossy appearance, but it will be all worth it.

If you need some carbon fibre fabrics, I can help there too, even tho its about $100 for 1m x 1m.

Yep, if you want to buy chinese-made items that warp after a couple of laps on the track than go ahead. The mould I make mine with was originally taken from the ones you see on Ebay, but I pop mine out with 3 layers of carbon fabrics (which isnt cheap), not just one layer with fibreglass underneath. The ones I have contain absolutely no fibreglass at all that can deform under high tempertures.

If you wanna waste your money on chinese made crap - feel free, but I was disappointed with the quality of the one I purchased from them, that's why I ended up making my own mould.
