    Haltech, on an SR20 since the CAS is on the exhaust camshaft, how to run a "VVTI" / HKS Vcam system ? (mechanical side apart)
    To my knowledge Haltech software need the position of the camshaft with the Variable cam system (not the nissan VTC style one, the true infinite one like Honda VTC).
    Do i need a full trigger/homing kit ? And put the homing on the intake rather than the exhaust cam, unlike OEM ?
    I know for a fact that RB26 with HKS VCAM run pretty much like a VVTI 2JZ, but i'm not to sure on a 4 banger.

    • @ReubenHorner
      @ReubenHorner Před rokem +1

      I know some newer Toyota engines have the vvt gears fail if you use thick oil.
      The main reason people don't usually use vct on big cams is simply because of valve clearance. You need to keep the valves away from the pistons at all areas that the vct can reach.
      Certainly high comp it's a big issue. Turbo lower comp engines you don't need such big cams if at all anyway, so vct is obvious
