johnny g Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 Just get 2 normal cams and I'll weld you a bit on. Save you a fortune. LOL! If only it was that simples! I've sent a PM to Lee this morning, so am waiting to see what the latest is on his cams and if I can get just an exhaust one. If I can, then it's time to ring Mr Titan for a 264 and a cam pulley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMPEROR Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 I personally will be going for the Titan 272 in and out cams. This is really interesting thread btw. Good luck with the build mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Only readily available VVTi cam matey The HKS VVTi cam is now available to buy on it's own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Not sure about a vendor, but the part number is 22002-AT004 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 Just found it on the HKS site but no prices Duration: 264° Lift: 8.6mm Valve Timing: 94°～118° The Titan ones are 9.35mm lift, so I think I'll go Titan, still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 How much lift can you use before risking valves hitting pistons though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 How much lift can you use before risking valves hitting pistons though? It's somewhere around 9.5mm - I'll be replacing the belt anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Im guessing your going for all out power then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 How much lift can you use before risking valves hitting pistons though? I've read 10mm lift is where they become interference - assuming stock pistons, valves, headgasket, etc. All the HKS cams (max lift 9.3mm) are suppose to be non-interference, the high lift JUN 272/10.8mm cams make the engine interference. Has anyone actually measured the stock clearance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 Im guessing your going for all out power then? Not all out power, but just making the absolute most of the knowledge on here and the parts available. I don't mind paying for parts, but I do mind paying twice!

johnny g Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) Right, good point, bad point time. Good point: Delivered the fuel bits to Hodge for him to have powder coated and assembled to make the job a little quicker. Also Mrs Hodge made a belting muffin for me. Lovely. Bad point: Titan cannot fulfil cam orders for the VVTi for the next 2-4 months. This basically means I've got to look at other cam options. I've dug out some information, and what I've seen is: Stock: Duration: 248 - Lift: 8.56 - Lift @ 0.050": 200 Tomei: Duration: 264 - Lift: 9.50 - Lift @ 0.050": 227 Brian Crower S2: Duration: 264 - Lift: 8.74 - Lift @ 0.050": 218 Brian Crower S3: Duration: 272 - Lift: 9.52 - Lift @ 0.050": 229 Titan 264: Duration: 264 - Lift: 9.35 - Lift @ 0.050": ??? Titan 272: Duration: 272 - Lift: 9.9 - Lift @ 0.050": ??? HKS 264 VVTi: Duration: 264 - Lift: 8.6 - Lift @ 0.050": ??? The Titan ones are 9.35mm lift, so I think I'll go Titan, still. So, I'm tilting towards the Crowers S3 cams now, with the 272's. Any thoughts?

EMPEROR Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Those are Brian Crower and not Crower actually, right? I've read pretty negative feedback on the US forum about them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are Brian Crower, yes. I've researched and most of the 2009 seems to be positive.

hodge Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I've been a busy bunny with the bits Johnny left at mine the other day. I've drilled and tapped out the other end of the fuel rail m12x1.25 and also the FPR hole. I've fitted 3 x -6AN fittings to the rail and had them welded in. They have now been blended into the rail and it's now awaiting powdercoating. I've also started on the fuel hanger also. At work I've made 2 bosses which I've drilled and tapped. 3/4 UNF for -8AN feed and a 9/16 UNF for the -6AN return. Hopefully tonight I'll drill out the stock feed and return and have these welded in place so the bulkhead fittings can be screwed in. I'll start baashing some pics up as soon as there's something to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Are the Tomei cams available, can't see them listed for the 2JZ? There's also the JUN Cams to add to the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomei are available through PHR (see their trader section) - the Jun ones state that they cannot be used with VVTi (although they do have high lift for their duration!)

A JUN cam could be used on the exhaust side or are you just looking for VVTi intake side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampy442 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Bit of a long shot, couldnt someone like Kent cams make you up something to your spec? Sure if you sent the original cam off they could work from that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure if you sent the original cam off they could work from that? My cams have miles on them matey - the head is essentially brand new, low miles, so I want a new cam in there (just me being me).

Swampy442 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Yeah so get a low volume manufacturer, i.e. Kent to make you a new, bespoke cam based on yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
