Ben?

Yes?

Ok kool Ben and your very correct Ben about sorting all the basic stuff sorted first. I just need a very good tuner like you do Ben. I really need to drive the car Down. How much are the cams anyways Ben

I think he is talking to you, could be wrong...

hahaha sounds like my mum!!!!!

 

[Bennoz]

Reminds me of this for some reason

For anyone thats interested, GTO's have the same cam gears as us so it might be cheaper to get a set of those instead of looking for Legnum/Galant specific vernier cam gears.

 

[unclepaulie]

Really? Can you confirm this?

('scuse the skepticism), maybe an Asa screenshot? I'm certain I saw the part numbers for our camgears were a one off

 

[Macca]

On closer inspection it seems that the front intake cam gear on the VR4 is a different part however I don't know how it could be that different.

huh well whattaya know. good stuff macca. im sure the gto one could be modified to suit

 

[Macca]

Thats what I was thinking. Just another option thats possibly cheaper for people to get.

 

[unclepaulie]

so you can buy the first set

 

[Macca]

Hahaha, I would If I needed them but I still have the basic stuff to do first

 

[Bennoz]

Why not just get a stock cog cut up & the vernier insert put in? Mine were made by an engineering mob in Brookvale.

I've got some spare FTO cogs (which are identical to VR4) units you are welcome to butcher.

Because I didn't know you could do that I wouldn't mind getting those FTO cogs off you if you don't mind.

 

[unclepaulie]

haha macca good work. i thought you knew you could do that but were after a aftermarket set lol

 

[Macca]

Hahaha, my bad . Well at least the info is there for anyone else that doesn't know or does want to get an aftermarket set
