Hey guys.

I'm having the cams fitted to my R34 GTT right now, and I've just been to have a look at it all going together. What I did see and what made me very interested, is that the standard VVT Inlet cam gear is actually adjustable from the factory.

However, it is only adjustable on the back of the gear, not the front.

My questions, is do you think I should make up the adapter to make it adjustable from the front and have a play on the Dyno??

Geez anything else you want for $50? Foot rub? Just get some grub screws and tack weld nuts on the back of them. Voila. Adjust it from the front with an allen key. now someone pay me for my brilliant idea.

PS. You don't need marks on them. You aren't tuning an F1 motor.

I'm currently designing a plate to go on the back of the pulley to have a play with it.

Will be from routed aluminum and will have some sort of marking on it.

Price to come, but it wont be a lot.

Yeah or you could have a 6 mm plate with an ID and OD about 12mm apart so it sits in the back of the gear with tapped holes 90 degrees apart. Then all you have to do is drill out the VVT holes so they don't have thread in them and the plate on the back works just as a clamp for the VVt and gear and you have bolts at the front. i like my first idea better- its easier and simpler. And if you want markings they have to be scribed on the gear and VVT.

      This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.

      Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛

      I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .

      Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?
