Does A Clear Cam Cover On An Rb26 Stay Clear And Clean Form The Inside?

[boobeedoobee]

Hey I'm updating my cam gears to a nice set of hks and I want to put a clear cover. Just wondering does it stay clean from the inside?If not is it hard to remove and clean?

[iruvyouskyrine]

Yes it should stay clean if inside your timing cover is clean and your cam seals don't leak. It would only be 3/4 bolts to take it off.

As I'm a updating the cam gears what it be hard to replace the cam seals while the mechanics are at it?

These questions aren't "forced induction" questions..

Use the correct section ie general maintenance

You'd be crazy to not have them replace the seals when the gears are off.

Removing the cover is easy, then you have to reset the timing cos you have to take the cas off.

And its obviously a waste of money.

I'm loving the idea of clear cam covers. That wording, plus the question of whether it will stay clean on the inside was worth a laugh.

Timing cover, now that's whole 'nother biscuit.

Oh man. Can't believe I didn't actually rad the thread correctly.

A clear cam cover is something very special indeed. Especially one that could stay clean!

Thanks for that I'll make sure they replace the seals..

Might just have to pull it off every now and then and give it a clean is all.

Section

[Ben C34]

Are you better than me cos of the car you drive?

If you think that's the case I'm truly sorry for you that your life is so basic and materialistic.

Really. Its sad.

The way you react to replies on here is hilarious, so don't go changing.

Someone might spoon feed you with exactly what you want to hear sooner or later.

Lol sorry genius I didn't mean to offend you by my question. . It's obviously well below your intelligence levels.. If you like dishing insults how about a nice simple reply for you superior brain.. 'gonna' isn't a word ..

they stay clean, but i think they will yellow over time. I've got a set of greddy ones in mine (which are now discontinued) and they are very much yellow

Ow I'm sorry you can dish it but can't take it .. no prob.. I'm sorry and yes a simple constructive answer to the question is preferred. . If you want to play games and consider yourself funny join a comedy club or a funny forum .. ??

[Ben C34]

Man.

You come on here asking people to help then act like this?

Just throw money at your chosen shop and get some shit result. But a clear cover for wank factor.

Good luck with it. Then you sell the car for a huge loss.

How would the inside of a cover get dirty? Well one way would be a leaking camshaft seal, which only a lunatic wouldn't replace when they have the gears off a unknown km engine. Or the crank seal. Or the water pump.

Not offended, just surprised by your complete lack of common sense,

mechanical knowledge and inability to use the search function.

Probably your parents fault more then anything.
