I've just enquired about a dbilas verneir timing pulley and the dbilas dealer has emailed me backing asking what tooth type the cambelt is.
Im just wondering does the has the g40 used more than one tooth type? or are they all the same?
If they're all the same what tooth type does the g40 use?
Thanks,
Juan
there are two different types, very early ones have square teeth and the vast majority have round teeth. It's fairly easy to tell by looking at the top pulley.

did they give an idea of price? I'll be needing a vernier pulley soon.
Yep its £105 which i think is pretty reasonable seeing as the shitty ones sell on german ebay for about £80
Yeah, that's not a bad price at all.
Juan, what/who is the dealer you have contacted? Link to their website?
It's regal autosport, just googled their name again and i found they have a vag specific website and on it they list the dbilas cam pulley at £80 ??? but when i made an enquiry a chap emailed me back saying it would be £105 ??? ???
Ill make futher enquirys and update :)
yeah that is weird, I've just looked too. You appear to be able to buy them on the site so I might just order one and see what happens. ;D
let us know pal,
i might get one just cant remeber if my car is round or square and my car is miles away locked up lol ill go look tomorrow.
£105 is the right price, it had to go up due to the exchange rate >:(
does that include VAT and or delivery? I guess I should get an order on via their site quickly then!
I gotta say they look like very good pulley's. I might have to follow the crowd and get one too... hmmm....
been looking for one of these! website address?
Their terms and conditions
When confirmation of order is received, this is to indicate that we have received your order. It does not indicate that a contract exists between us. We will indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract between us, when we send you an invoice. We have included this term to protect us in the case that a mistake has been made in pricing, we have inadvertently under-priced goods, or we are no longer able to supply a particular product for some reason. In the case of a change of price, we will always contact you first to ensure that the price is acceptable.
i was going to order one and see what happens but i bet they will ring up and say they can't supply at that price.
I dont get it, why dont people just buy the catcams one? It looks ten times better than that Dildo one and they're roughly the same price. Had one for years, it's the shit.
do you have any pics of the catcams one? Where did you buy it from?
yeah, that does seem slightly dodgy!! Order one at £105 and then a week later, the price rockets up to £200. DO you still buy it? FUCK NO!
I've got a Cat Cams one, impressed with degree pin adjustment increments they have :)
Looks like this one.

Got to say the Cat Cams one does look better...
Price? Link to where i can buy one?
no idea on price, think you can buy from catcams.co.uk.
Bought mine years ago for about 110 quid. Bargain.
likely to be a fair bit more now tohugh due to exchange rates. I'm in the middle of getting a quote now so I'll post up once I know. They are just asking me to confirm number of teeth etc... so I need to measure my standard one up.
Yeah i recon that it will be around £130-140 now from looking at thier site. Let me know what price you get quoted Paul and see if a group buy for 5 is on the cards maybe? - (just a suggestion)
yes I will do, just measured up my pulley now and it is what QEP thought it would be which is 52 teeth, 131mm outer dia with trapezoidal tooth profile (this is what we call a "round tooth" one). Their part code is CTVW028. Will hopefully have a price to post tomorrow, will also ask about a price for 5 too.
I recon it will worth getting 5 if the saving is substantial enough. I agree with the part number from looking at thier site.. Look forward to getting the price. sterling work paul
right, got a price from QEP for the catcam vernier. It is £109.77 + delivery + Vat .
So you are talking getting on for £140 including delivery and VAT.
They said they don't do group buys or any kind of quantity price breaks direct to customers because it annoys their trade resellers.
club g40 trade account?
ha, well I'd have thought at very least we'd need to be a registered company.
I doubt it as any single owner company doesn't need to register! And if they do need proof of anything more than that (which is being picky) then could we go through PPP or Jackson tuning?
that price isnt too bad considering, yeah i agree there must be some way of bringing that price down a little though....
You fancy seeing what can be done guys if there is the interest for 5? Is there interst for 5 or maybe even 10 as i assume these will fit most vw 8valves of that age?
i asked about a turbo shaft and pulley. got this...
Hi,
The camshaft is £214.05 + Vat and the Pulley is £109.77 + Vat
Total cost inc Vat & Delivery = £385.04
To ensure you get the correct pulley we need to know if your original pulley has 44 or 52 teeth.
