Sounds to me like you have the timing a tooth off I'd redo it making sure your set correctly!!

[singlecamslam]

Yes timing is supposed to be at 15 degrees

[bvr463]

i made sure everything was on the marks after i tightened up the timing belt..hmmm lets say it is all on the marks.. what else could it be

[samgs14]

Hmmmmmmmm and you are sure the cas is correct I had same issue with my old SR and it ended up being the exhaust cam was a tooth off.. but same issue's you describe I had to advance the piss out of it to get it to do anything in boost, re-timed the motor and ran like a raped ape again lol.. if you have everything set correct then id start by checking to see if the ECU is throwing any codes?!?!?! GL man sorry I couldnt help more

[bvr463]

see when i took the cas out, i could'nt get it back in the same way it came out, so i started turning it untill it went in, so now i really think i totally fucked up the cas, i dont know how to get it back to the normal position

[samgs14]

try turning the motor just a little (maybe a 1/4 inch at the most either way) and re-installing the cas the way it was im sure that this is your issue needs to be set back where it was you can even try turning the cas the opposite way you went and then rotate it the correct way as you install it... that is kinda confusing but think of it like a distributor Hope this helps

[bvr463]

i tried for hours trying to figure out how to get back the cas to original form, but i dont think i am :( how do you know when its back to original?

thank you for all your help

How to Guide_Changing the Timing Belt on a RB25DET (http://www.scribd.com/doc/16408415/How-to-GuideChanging-the-Timing-Belt-on-a-RB25DET)
read this the bottom of the guide might have what you are looking for GL

[bvr463]

that is the exact thing i followed, i guess i have to keep turning and playing with it untill the cas is centered and timing is at 15 degrees

[samgs14]

damn I was hoping that would help lol... GL with it if anything try to un do re-set everything and try it again?!?!

[bvr463]

thank you once again, i was hoping it might be simple, but if not then re-setting everything would have to be done again :(

[samgs14]

any time man Good Luck with it

[bvr463]

so what do you roll in?

[samgs14]

My Daily is a 99 750il bmw, but im building a 95 zenki, so far it's sittin on stance GR+ coilovers, full endlinks and control arms, and suspension techniques sway bars, soon to get a 6.0L T56 chevy transplant all I have left to buy is a motor which im waiting till I get ready to do the swap till I buy it..

[bvr463]

sorry it says invalid attachment

[samgs14]

I hear ya on the not knowing how to drift when I first started out I bought a motor from a friend that was built and was way out of my league but the more I got into it the more addicted I became and now its my passion lol

[samgs14]

huh that's weird it lets me open it now did it ask you to open it?

[bvr463]

nice, i always seem to start getting scared when car starts turning past a certain degree.
last night i made a left turn normally gassed it slightly in the turn, next thing i know i went almost in a complete 360.. fuck my heart ws like bump bump bump

Im not fimilar with rb's but when the cas on the 91-92 3000gt is 180* out it will run like shit too. Try rotating your cas 180* lmk if it helped.

[bvr463]

thank you i will try that

[samgs14]

thats how it was when I first started but once I realized when you keep your foot in it and counter It will pull around then you start wanting to push to the absolute edge of looping how much angle you can hold at speed!!! it's a blast then it just becomes an issue of keeping tires under your car lol

[bvr463]

hahaha i like that "trying to keep tires under your car" i can send you my cell number if you like send me the pics you were tryingto post.. by the way im ryan from hilo hawaii
