Guys

I'm looking a getting a 2nd hand RB26DETT for my R32 GTR (current motor broken)

The engine I'm looking at is equipped with a pair of HKS CAMS (don't know what size) , adjustable cams gears and also has 700cc injectors with a few other go fast bits. I have a pair of N1 (not group A) turbos to fit up. I'm getting a leak down test done - but a compression test (cold) delivers 170 across all six pots.

My question is - how will these cams effect the drivablity of the car. It's a street driven GTR (daily driver) and I'm targeting a modest power output (250/270 rwkw). I have herd that these cams MAY introduce lag - is this true. The reason I have N1's is because I don't want too much lag down low in the rev range - and I'm not chasing too much top end power anyway.

(not too much experience with cams - obviously)

Also - I'll like to start with the std ECU and swap over to a PFC at a latter date - I thinking this may not be an option with this engine. I'm assuming the std ECU will not deal with these types of mods - yes ?

talk to me guys (and Galls of course)

very difficult to tell without pulling them out, one quick way is to pull the oil cap off the top left rocker cover and look at the profile of the cam but you need to know what your looking for (basically the rounder the cam the wilder but its hard to explain.

Also if no head work has bee required to fit the cams they cant be too wild.

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues
