Description
HKS RB26 V-CAM System Step 1 (Without Valcon Controller) - 1989-2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R
Product Overview: HKS RB26 V-CAM System Step 1 (Without Valcon Controller) - 1989-2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R is a valvetrain component that changes valve timing and lift behavior to support a more performance-focused engine airflow profile. This listing is structured around the exact HKS product/SKU so shoppers can match the component to the intended vehicle or build without relying on a generic product-family description.
Driver Benefit: Performance camshafts can improve high-rpm breathing and power potential when matched to the engine combination, valvetrain, compression, induction/exhaust system, and calibration.
Recommended Use: Best suited to purpose-built naturally aspirated or forced-induction engine combinations; installation and tuning requirements should be confirmed before purchase.
Technical & Fitment Notes
- Camshaft duration, lift, intake/exhaust position, and Step specification are part-number-specific and should be matched to the complete engine combination.
- Valve-to-piston clearance, valvetrain compatibility, ECU calibration, and supporting hardware should be verified by the engine builder.
- Original catalog note: HKS VALCON variable valve timing controller is not included. The favored HKS V-CAM system for RB26 without VALCON type is newly launched. Features The intake cam side of the RB26DETT is changed to allow variable valve timing. The cam has duration of 248 degrees which seem a little conservative. However, with the variable timing, power increases can be found at low or high RPM. Whether you are looking to find some time on the circuit through improve acceleration out of lower speed corners, or simply want something which can overtake with ease on the street, the HKS V Cam System provides good power from low RPM reducing the necessity for excessive gear changes. This especially noticeable when going from vacuum to boost to give the feeling of increased displacement. Improved valve timing will allow for more complete combustion leading to improved fuel efficiency and cleaner exhaust emission
Fitment and specifications can vary by HKS part number, model year, trim, transmission, drivetrain, and market. Confirm the SKU and application before ordering, particularly on modified vehicles.
