Wow Paul awesome setup, Huntley hill climb would be interesting now!!!

[Angus Smart]

Hey Paul,

Did you sell that carbon shaft? or still have it? did you get it balanced? or didnt need to?

[Piggaz]

Hey Paul,

Did you sell that carbon shaft? or still have it? did you get it balanced? or didnt need to?

Hey man.

Still have it in the garage. Got it balanced by some mob, put it back in. It was better but not perfect. The stock one is back in the car now. I sent an email to ACPT and got nothing back. To be honest I forgot all about it.

[GTRNUR]

Great stuff Paul, and those data logs are interesting. Has me wondering if anyone has thought of putting a dynamic tensioner on the timing belt to try and keep the cams more stable.

The EJ20s uses a high tension spring loaded tensioner on the slack side of the belt to take up the belt stretch when the engines RPM accelerates. It makes sense for those motors as the belt is a lot longer than an RB26 belt. It would be worth looking at how the 1UZFE handles belt tension too, as well as they have a crazy long belt.

Ian, I remember you saying something about te EJ's at the Nats.

Thats a good little something I can do when it's on the dyno next. Take a short movie with the Cam gear cover off to show how much the belt flops around. It's actually quite disturbing! Out of sight out of mind right?

When is it going back onto the dyno Paul ?

[Piggaz]

Within the next few weeks. Just to turn the EBC on and screw some boost into it. See what it makes before the new head arrives.

sounds like mine, still not even sure if it fits

Looked at mine the other day and contemplated sending it back to Oz but common sense took over as I reached for another beer and shaft was thrown to back of storage shed.

Paul head is not far off. Machining started on other parts.

Very interesting thread !!

HKS Vcam? I'd laugh if that allowed you a choice of 3 gears for any corner!

Sell it Marcus. Ebay that shit. I felt the difference and it was awsome but it didn't work as it should!

Can't wait for this head! Bring it on!!!!!!!!!

Oh. Don't get me thinking. VCam would be UNREAL! The difference between RS's and -5's was just amazing.... V cam ontop would be unreal..... What about a 3.0, V cam and -5's.! Say hello to area under the curve!

[black bnr32]

Hey Paul, there's a vcam pro fro sale on gtrcanada.com $4500 CAD if I remember correctly. user name is c-unit.

[black bnr32]

IMO variable valve timing is the one major drawback of these motors compared to other inline 6s from bmw and toyota

[WHITER33GTS-T]

Can this kit be used on any ross balancer..? As I have one already.

Not sure. What model of balancer do you have?

[Deano 1]

Why not VCT setup? Isn't there a conversion you can use from the rb25?

[N1GTR]

Yeah, the ERD one is available and sounds like a fantastic bit of gear
