When I was removing my ignition timing unit the locating piece that connects to my camshaft had snapped off. Ive tried lining the timing unit up without the locating piece but now this damaging the timing unit. I need a camshaft for an 93' rb25det s1. I live in the Albury/Wodonga area and can't find one anywhere. People only want to sell me the whole head or an aftermarket camshaft. Where can I source a exhaust camshaft at the right price. Please help!!!

reflex

just went through a similar problem

due to my own stupidity I snapped the CAS keyway

my mechanic said he sourced a nissan camshaft for $400

so f*** that and bought myself a HKS one for a bit more

but before I did, I looked around at the wreckers here in WA and they were asking nowhere near that price. Dsturbd was offering me one for $150, pm him maybe he still has it.

and some wreckers were asking around $200 and one was asking for $380

Just make sure its the exhaust cam cause the inlet one doesnt have the keyway

and RB25 NEO have different camshaft alltogether

It is possible to set the CAS up without the key in the camshaft side - I've had the same problem for a year or so now.

If you look carefully into the recess where the key should be, you should be able to see where it has broken off. Just imagine that the key is still there, then imagine how the CAS mates, and assemble the CAS in place.

Yeah I've already done this for the passed month. What has happened though is the timing unit was mounted on a slight angle with spacers put in it. This slight angle has started to chew away at the teeth/cogs on the camshaft. Now the cogs has worn the timing unit slips and doesn't hold its position. I need another camshaft.

    • The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.
    • Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.
    • Well, your RB20 ECU loom won't have wires for the boost solenoid, that boost sensor, and possibly one or two other things. There could be differences in seemingly random things like the charcoal canister purge solenoid, because the 25DET has to handle boost in the vacuum system and the 20DE does not. I don't know - I haven't looked. It is very likely that all the most important things are same-same, being the main sensors like AFM, CAS, etc, and the injectors and ignition. Not that you'll need the AFM for the Haltech anyway. I would suggest that you would seriously want to sit down with the pinouts for both ECUs and just go through them and highlight green what is the same, orange what is different/missing, and make a plan from there. It's not going to be difficult. It will either be the same or need to be fixed.
    • yeaaa that's why I haven't done any wiring to the stock ecu harness because I have the haltech, but then that leads me to the other question of "is the pnp harness really plug and play?" or would I have to still switch some pins/wires over because the pnp is for the rb25det neo harness, and not for the rb20de neo harness. was really hoping to find something to spoon feed me since so many people have done rb20neo + t conversions, but man this is rough.
    • Temu raptor, lol. At least the owner isn't your typical ranger danger lot
