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.

load of rubbish, been on my car quite a while and theres no problem, the duration isnt long enough to cause the valves to hit the pistons if its timed correctly

its not the physical size, but the duration thats different i think. kind of like an aftermarket cam but not as lairy and not as expensive!

drove around with mine for over a year, not problems at all, just needs proper installmentOf course it's the same size, or else it wouldn't fit would it?Hardcore wrote:is the camshaft the exact same size as the standard 6n one then??

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 increasePosted: Thu Oct 11, 2007 4:22 pm
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??

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??
