bullsh*t m8 drove around with mine for over a year, not problems at all, just needs proper installmentThe_phat_controlleruk wrote:Got speaking to someone about this as I am considering this and he said this cannot be done, changing to a Mk3 GT camshaft would end up with piston slap. I am now confused.
Of course it's the same size, or else it wouldn't fit would it? only the valvehitters (if that is the correct english word for it) are a bit "thicker" which makes the valves stay open longer, resulting in more air-fuel mixture entering each cilinder --> performance increaseHardcore wrote:is the camshaft the exact same size as the standard 6n one then??
thennn i dont see how it could make it faster lool :S

yes, replace it right away, saves lot of money since you won't have to take of the timingbelt etc. to replace it lateron. It costed me about 50 euro's, but don''t know what the price is doing in BritainHardcore wrote:ok. ermmm jarno? do you think it would be best to buy the water pump brand new? to alst even longer? andd would be cleaner. and how much would i be looking at for one brand new mate??
