Im after the following items:

HKS Timing belt

HKS cam gears

HPI clear cam cover

All for a RB25 - ER34

First of all, are these parts any good? any horror stories with them?

If anyone knows where the best place to grab these i would much appreciated the info. I also have a mate in Japan, so if there are any places over there that would be awesome too.

Thanks :)

When installing the clear cam cover make sure you get a spacer between the CAS and cam cover. The plastic cover is much thinner than the OEM one so if you tighten it to the same tightness it will smash the teeth off yours CAS!

What kind of spacer are you referring to mate? do you have any pics?

cheers

He means just put a washer on the 3 CAS bolts to space out the CAS. The amount it needs to come depends on the difference of the cover thickness. I forgot to put my spacer in one day running no cover and my CAS broke in 5 min down the road.

The newer thicker version of our Clear Cam Gear Cover shouldn't have issues with the CAS. However as the CAS is vital to the engines operation, I would seek the advice of a mechanic if you are unsure what you are doing.

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.

      How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
