After the first time I could probably do it without the manual by myself within 12 hours.. Installed and driving away.

 

just so you know...

We got a phone call today about someone installing a plenum spacer...

Customer:
"You guys shipped cheap bolts, they wouldnt even meet the torque spec"

Us:
"Sir, its 17in-lbs not Foot Pounds..."

Customer:
"Oh, how do I get them out..."

 

Then I salute you, sir! You're certainly a better mechanic than I.

 

LMAO... Oh well i was helping a friend replace his head gasket on his civic. B16 fully built with a 67mm turbo. I war installing the cams caps and torquing them down with 3 steps, and broke 3 bolts . Turns out that the cams had been removed several times before so the bolts had been torque down like 4 times before. So after a trip to the honda dealer for all new bolts @ nearly $1 each i finished it for him

 

Well tonight I finished installing all 4 cams, timed the cam gears, put on the timing chain,the chain tensioners and chipped away all the old RTV. Car will run for the first time tommorrow with my new setup.

I ll let you know if it was all worth it. If it doesnt snow on Sunday I will also get a dyno.

 

jus installed the nismo cams. Im having a rough idle. The rpm would drop close to stalling after i rev the motor? What can i do about this? Someone sed to go to the dealer and ask them to raise the idle but they might ask all these damn question on why i have rough idle. Can i raise the idle myslef? ANyone know how? Help would be appriciated. Thanks!

thanks!

 

is that guaranteed to work?

 

What does it idle like?? My car is idling fine at almost 1000RPM

I cant wait till the salt is off the roads to test this *****.. also get it re-dynoed

 

its idles fine at neutral but after i rev it a little, my rpm pretty much drops and stalls. Takes the fun away from reving the car and hearing my nismo exhaust! This is killing me!...i hope u can help. Im going to try to go to nissan tommorow and ask if they can bump up my idle to mayb 950-1000. What do u suggest i do? Thanks in advance!

 

FlorendoCruz, lets try that first, before going to the Dealer

 

Hold on before you buy there... Iam going to make one and see what happens... I can make that kit for 10 bucks

Ill let you know tommorrow afternoon how I make out.. mine does drop to about 700RPM after I just checked.

 

i forgot about this mod when you pm'ed me. it does work, it is just making it so the ecu sees more air going through the maf and it enters into the intake behind the throttle plate. unfortuneately it won't work on the blow through greddy set up i have as it would of been drawing in unmetered air, so i went about it differently. but as luke figured out, you can do this really cheap.

 

hey i appriciate that Luke! Let me know as soon as possible. Thanks in advance!

 

JorgeOlievra, u think we can make this kit? hehe

 

Well I went to home depot with this diagram from Jim Wolf.. got everything to 15.76 with tax
http://www.jimwolftechnology.com/wol...BILITY_FIX.PDF

Put that bad boy in and idle is much better..

What you do is T the vacuum line going to the throttle body ..
Go from that T to the other T...
Now splice the line that going from the rear left valve cover that goes to the bottom of the intake pipe.

Take me 10 minutes.
Any questions PM me

 

did it make a big difference? What does it do? Does it raise the idle higher or it jus stays at normal rpm and stabalizes?

 

It made a pretty big difference.. No more drop in RPM like before

It creates more vacuum pressure so there is not as much fluctuation in RPM when letting off.

It raised the idle and also made it not drop like before..

You can do this yourself ... its really easy. Just print out that diagram and go into home depot to the fittings section and get the right sizes

 

yye but i cant print out the diagram for some apparent reason. Can u email be the actual diaghram and not the link. Mayb that'll work. I appriciate what ur doing and thanks alot.
