mechanic day-cam belt??


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, we need to do a cam belt on our 1999 b4 rsk, its way way over due. ( 173,000k and it was last done at 97,000k) I was thinking maybe we could make it a get together and have some fun tell stories and maybe a short run after the belt change. we have a pretty fully kitted out double garage at our place in Pukerua Bay.

we have not done this before and although the wife says, "ya I can do that" I thought maybe some one or some people with experience might help.

this was just a off the cuff post I just thought of this very minute.

what do you think? we could all have a catchup and we would provide lunch, maybe bbq and beverages ;D

everyone is welcome no matter what your skill at mechanics, I was thinking it could be a get together day and have some fun as well, for those (like me) it can be a learning day too, then we can have some food and drink ;D

cambelts are a pretty easy job to do you just need to know all the tricks and everything works

I've done a number of them now and haven't failed yet however i do struggle a bit on the old metal gears due to the lining up on them

What day are you doing this cambelt service? I can pop around and help you guys out if i.m not busy

Sean - you kiting out the gravel express with some goodies?

Sure am Ben :D

Putting the Roo bars back on as well as the external tyre well and got some Subaru Rally mudflaps (thats all this weekend install).

Then I have purchased a twisted Rage 3" downpipe, have the STi engine to drop in. All I need now is a Link G4, vf23, front mount piping (have the actual front mount) and then I'll need a flipped manifold ;) - will shave it off etc...

Going to be a busy few months once I've got all the parts :D

Nah i didn't have a weekend in mind, i'm pretty flexible at the moment due to the lady working the weekends again (YES FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) so i guess setting a date would be the next step, I'm sure a few will rock up for a look / experience

Haha sounds like someone had big plans and those plans sound very similar to mine :o expect for those rally mudflaps

Good to hear the roo bars are going back on

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
