If you are looking to change your shims to TRD style you could give this guy a try http://www.precisionshims.com.au/. I emailed him and he was very helpful. He is mostly motorbike but remember Yamaha has a big say in most toyota heads anway. HE said he could make something work.

yes thats 400 per cam, still pricing cam gears.

normal toyota shims sit on top of bucket, trd shim and bucket sets, shims sit under buckets witch allows higher rpm due to shims cant fly out, recommend trd valve springs (gauranteed 10,000 rpm with this set up)

i think i'l leave my standard shims for now, can't justify 2k for shim under when i can put it toward turbocharging the engine and make more power easily.

was thinking cams and gears only for now

also, what kind of cams would you put in it?
i'm thinkin either 288 or maybe 304 degree...

depending on the grind severity of the cams you will need to change the shims anyway , if you just want a mild increase i can get cams ground to match your original shim settings , any more than about a 20% increase in lift and duration will mean you need to reset the shim thicknesses to suit the new profile , adjustable vernier cam pulleys , can do for around $300 each with max 40 degree adjustment using original gear sets (i have) , hope this helps , any other questions please dont hesitate to ring me on mobile 0402376020

Re: Vernier Cam Gears Fri, 14 June 2002 16:18 Go to previous message
Vernier cam gears can be bought from most import performance speed shops. I'd recommend either HKS or TODA units. Very good, clear markings on the cam wheels, and easier to dial in. HKS ones should be available for about A$560 or less a pair.

If you have a programmable ECU and are thinking of turbocharging later, a set of 288 duration cams and about 8.3mm of lift should be nice. Bigger cams will have too much overlap for a turbo setup (for street use). If you have a set of quad throttle bodies and are thinking of staying NA, then go bigger...

Cheers
