The exhaust cam gear is making a slight noise that goes away if I spray a little lube spray behind gear...there's no wobble and seals were done a few years ago. Any idea what's causing it?
Yes it is probably the best option to do both at the same time, we wont going to buy the cam gears at the time, hence the reason why we did this process twice
How were you able to keep the cams at TDC when breaking loose the bolts for each cam gear and when you torque them down? I was under the impression the cam covers needed to be removed to use a wrench y to I hold each cam in place.
Ik this is kind of late but I was just reading comments and wanted to say if anyone else had the same question. On the JZ you don’t need to remove the valve cover to change the VVTI gear or no vvti gear as long as your hold the crank bolt while cracking them lose as the belt will keep it in time very simple to do time jobs on jz are a cake walk I would really anyone to learn on one
@@AutoMotiv8ed ok next on my list, stock ecu should be able to handle enough to by time to get standalone, asking because I gotta do the belt and it’s my daily
Quick question if I put on the cam gear, I don't really have to change anything else do I. And if not how many degrees can I advance the timing without having to change anything?
@Paul B the cams make car feel like it has more top end power! And pulls more harder thoughout the gears! Very noticeable, but have yet to dyno for proven figures
@Paul B well while the cam gear was off basically putting a new part is always best option, plus it’s not too expensive for the cam gear anyway, so we opted to change the complete unit rather than just the seal!
@@AutoMotiv8ed so just installed the new one there's no procedure on lubricating or priming it first cuz the new one out of the box is dry and if you shake it around a little bit it cling and clangs
hi @Random Kid , correct our is300 is the 2JZ GE VVTI, no problems what so ever, our car runs so good now we are extremelly happy!

@Spencer Clark Hi, great question To simplify it for you, cam gears increase torque and horsepower without having to change the camshaft(s) and are mandatory for engines that are milled, forced induction, high compression and/or utilizing aftermarket competition cams BC adjustable cam gears deliver the easiest way to dial in more horsepower and/or torque without getting underneath the valve cover, disassembling the engine or dealing with onboard electronics. Hope this helps 👌
Mostly just changes where the power peaks. Can dial it in to shift your power from low mid or higher in the rpm. They don't really add more power. Just adds tunability and allows very fine for specific builds.

Question. On the right cam was the guide pin at 12 o'clock before you put the vvt gear or 11 clock ( 30 deg to left.
Would you recommend just doing the cam gear and cam shafts at the same time? Since you have to take off the radiator and other stuff for both jobs

I have GE vvti with gte conversion will this work with stock ecu no problem?
Best off going standalone ecu to get full functionality of your car. stock ecu is very limited and not worth keeping

Hey I know this is an old video I’m going BC stage 2 cams and want to get the Vvti Exhaust gear how did you know when it was properly dialed in?
There is instructions on where you set the cam gear. Your tuner also will have more flexibility in tuning your car with the cam gear
Quick question if I put on the cam gear, I don't really have to change anything else do I. And if not how many degrees can I advance the timing without having to change anything?
correct, you can advance or retard timing by +2 or -2 degrees
How noticeable was the power improvement with the cams?
@Paul B the cams make car feel like it has more top end power! And pulls more harder thoughout the gears! Very noticeable, but have yet to dyno for proven figures
@@AutoMotiv8ed no tune?
@@AutoMotiv8ed just plug and play no tune and you noticed a gain?
@@josesandoval4274 yep that's right, they are "drop in cams" dont require tune but uts reccomended for maximum performance
@@AutoMotiv8ed did you advance or retard the exhaust gear?
Any advantage to going for a new intake cam gear over replacing the o-ring on the old cam gear as most people seem to do?

Runs good stock ecu? whats the cam gear setting? How's the fuel consumption lol
Ran very well! Fuel consumption was the same as prior
What’s the part number for both items and have you had any problems and also is your car has the 2jge right ?

You didn't show the most important parts of the timing process. Why not? Otherwise ok.
what are the benefits for the BC adjustable cam gear?

@@AutoMotiv8ed would you say it's a noticable difference in power with the cams and the camgear installed?
Mostly just changes where the power peaks. Can dial it in to shift your power from low mid or higher in the rpm. They don't really add more power. Just adds tunability and allows very fine for specific builds.
Did you even dail in the adjustable gear ??
@Gwana m Hi, yes we did dail it in off camera
What brand is the exhaust?
@Paul B exhaust is "lta industries "
