Honda Acura K series DOHC I-VTEC RBC VTC limiter set of 7 different pins 


The VTC Limiter is yet another innovative product that was designed with the average consumer in mind! It is a cost effective solution for limiting how much cam advance your motor see's. The VTC Limiter is undoubtedly the easiest way to limit cam advance.

The most K series engine owners already have a RBC 50* intake cam gear... so it made total sense to limit the 50* gear rather than ask customers to go through the trouble of finding a 25* TSX gear and have it machined. The process is tedious, you must find a 25* RBB gear and obviously buy it, pay to have it shipped, find a capable machine shop to handle the modification, ship it to them, pay them their fee, and ultimately pay for the return freight. Sounds expensive! Not to mention a total headache and a major inconvenience.

Don't forget to ask yourself what happens when you need more or less cam angle?  I guess you'll have to repeat the process.

The limiter works by placing the pin in a specific cavity of the VTC gear, where it is allowed to move freely. Centrifugal force locates the pin in the correct position once the engine is in operation... much like the ride you see at the carnival that spins and pins you up against the wall, where it mechanically limits the amount of movement; regardless of what the ECU is telling the solenoid to do or oil pressure spikes! This may save you engine! Here is your chance to save some money and upgrade your engine performance!


The package contains a set of 7 different pins:

1 x 45 deg vtc limiter pin

1 x 40 deg vtc limiter pin

1 x 36 deg vtc limiter pin

1 x 32 deg vtc limiter pin

1 x 28 deg vtc limiter pin

1 x 20 deg vtc limiter pin

1 x 14 deg vtc limiter pin

 

The item is located at EU and will ship it worldwide!


Installation Procedure

1. The VTC Limiter cam be installed with cam gear still on camshafts in the motor but we are going to go through the process covering both methods but the images will reflect off car/ motor...

2. Grab the T30 Torx bit, a socket, and a ratchet or wrench to aid in the removal of the four Torx bolts.

If you are doing this on car... loosen all four but leave one bolt in as show below.

3. When you are doing this on car/ motor be careful not to let this little guy jump out! It is under slight pressure from a spring behind it. If you leave the cover on as mentioned above... it should not be an issue. Be careful none the less.

4. Grab the VTC Limiter pin and install in this cell. It is ok if you don’t remember where it goes when the time comes to perform the installation; you can find an image of where the pin goes on the back of the products packaging. The pin will be allowed to move so don’t worry about where it goes... as long as it is in the appropriate cell.

5. This is what it should look like. Remember... centrifugal force will pin the limiter to the upper corner once it is in motion.

6. Snug all the Torx bolts by hand and torque to 7.0 lb.ft or 9 Nm


Travis Pastrana spoofs his DC Shoes boss Ken Block in new video

Tue, 21 Jun 2011

We love a little friendly interteam rivalry--especially when it involves driver Travis Pastrana and his boss at DC Shoes, Ken Block. Gymkhana ace Block released a video in February featuring his new livery for the DC Shoes WRC Ford Fiesta and his 2011 schedule of events. The hard-rock-and-techno-scored video shows Block in race gear, with his car and a few femme fatales in black vinyl and other DC gear.

GM 'will lose money' on the new Chevrolet Volt

Thu, 18 Sep 2008

By Ben Whitworth Motor Industry 18 September 2008 14:39 Despite hanging its future on the make-or-break Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid car, GM has confirmed that it doesn’t expect to make a profit from it – at least not on the first-generation model. The Chevy Volt was unveiled this week amid much hoopla at GM's centenary. 'I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a situation where we make money, particularly when you load all the costs in,' Fritz Henderson, GM’s chief operating officer, told Automotive News Europe, referring to the company’s first-generation technologies.
