Adjustable Cam Gears

[shaun_perry]

Hi guys. I am doing a few more little cosmetic things to the under bonnet of my R33 S1 GTSt.

I have a clear cam cover and I noticed that all the electricals and stuff of the cam timing is going to ruin the look of it.

I was wondering how I go about putting in adjustable cam gears and removing the electric cam timing gear from the front of the motor??

Do I need to do something to the ECU as I will be removing the original cam timing set up??

I am doint the timing belt soon so i will do this while I have it all taken apart.

Your input and advice would be muchly appreciated.

Cheers,

Shaun 8-)

Wrong forum and you don't want to do this.

I kinda thought that, And why not?? I already paid $165 for a clear cam gear cover.

You want to ditch VCT for the look of a clear cover?

If you ditch it you will loose power down low through the midrange... It's not worth it just for looks

I read he was planning to ditch the CAS!

I didn't care which he was planning to ditch, I thought it was better just to declare it all to be a bad idea.

ditch the cas and vct, its not needed

I thought a cam angle sensor is the same as a crank angle sensor. And i thought with out a crank angle sensor the ecu wont know when to make what spark plug spark.

I may be incorrect but thats my understanding

Ditch the efi setup too, nothing looks more tuff than a carby setup with chromed air filter

What about an rb20det, any pro's in going with adjustable cam gears?

Only really for looks if its a hassle I won't bother.
