Kaan W Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Doubt it, why get cheap stuff when you can get good quality parts from known manufactures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Material spec seems OK, but I personally prefer sprockets that use 4 bolts for locking them up. Black anodising is USUALLY hard anodizing, alloy sprockets wear on the teeth far faster than steel ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jza800 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 I got them as a gift from my girlfriend, so you would think I would easily run them on my std 2jzgte engine? do not expect to have to adjust them, as it is mostly for in appearance on my engine. ???

Chris Wilson Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 They should be OK, if you want to cover your backside change the bolts for known decent cap heads, and do not over torque or you'll strip them, use a bit of mild Loctite on them. Really paranoid? Pin them with roll pins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jza800 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 how much torque should i give them?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I would imagine that';s in the instruction sheet isn't it? I would just do them by feel if not, but how good is *your* feel? *PROBABLY* less than 4 lbf/ft. Depends on the alloy's heat treatment, if any, and how much thread depth there is in the female thread. But don't blame me if they strip or aren't tight enough. http://www.mechanicaldesignforum.com/archive/index.php/t-42.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jza800 Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Unfortunately there is no manual with the wheels ..so do i just tightened them to 5.5nm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Just take them to someone with a feel for such things and ask them to do them up by feel. That's how I would do them without a recommended torque setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jza800 Posted November 28, 2014 Author Share Posted November 28, 2014 i now got a hold in the manufactures off the cam gear, and they advised me that they should be tightened up to approx 12nm, does that sounds right??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 That's 8.9 lbs ft. Sounds quite a bit but they know how much thread depth there is and what the material is like. Go for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
