Ams inc. Clear/smoked timing covers coming soon!

AMS INC. Introduces a product demanded for years by enthusiasts for the venerable 300ZX (Z32). Through extensive R&D and investment AMS INC. has developed an OEM fit clear 'Polycarbonate' injection moulded upgrade to the OEM solid black non-clear plastic. Available in 100% Clear Plastic and limited edition 'Smoked'

Features:

-CAD Designed for exacting fitment
-Injection Moulded like OEM - all OEM fastener
use is retained
-High Quality Polycarbonate construction
ensures : durability, scratch resistant, heat
resistant and fade resistant properties
-Clear and Smoked plastic allows for easy inspection and
monitoring of critical 'Timing Belt' components!
No more guessing if the belt is wearing or
leaks are present in cam seals etc.
-Replace worn and scratched 20 yr old OEM
covers
-Allows for show goers to display aftermarket
Cam gears and accessories without the risk
of exposing the critical Timing Belt
components as done in the past (both
dangerous and potentially catastrophic for the engine)

Awesome to see these being released officially!

Will post install pics when these arrive shortly

Put a set of the smoked ones aside for me please - time for an update on the blue car.

 

finally there is a set for the Z32.

just put my engine in


Should supply sets with cam gear cutouts for adjustments.

 

Nice work

ams. I'll be in for a set.

 

They look fantastic!!!

 

Very good, and good to be able to see if oi leaks. GTR's have had these for years, although they don't stay perfectly clear or clean for long.

 

Yep, that's what I instantly thought. I see a practical application but mostly is it just novelty? Hard to get off and clean.

It is a nice product all the same. Well done.

 

I put a set on that Evo 5 I did, only done ~2000k's and they are already getting grubby.


How much are these ones going to cost?

 

'Follow up' product.....

This product will be followed up by another innovative product called :-

The Inside Timing Belt Cover Cleaning Tool :rofl: :br:

 

same I think - but is there any risk of stuff getting in the teeth? Either way I want to be able to see my cam gears

 

only fingers. Not had an issue with either of mine and no cam covers.

 

Only way is for another vendor to invest 10's of thousands on injection molds which is highly unlikely. This is one of the reasons none of the other vendors have ventured this path due to cost inhibitions.

Touche'

 

Do we have a rough figure for pricing?

 

Any news on these? Date? Price?

 

I've got a pre production set in for a customer

Pure coolness, the car is more or less a show car/toy so wont be seeing any daily commutes etc.

Sneak peek:


The lower belt cover is modified on this engine to allow it to be removed without pulling the top RHS one off so there is a gap where the to meet that is NOT the fault of the clear covers.
