Ric said:Why what? You're telling me you're going thru all the effort to install cams for higher RPM on a japanese junkyard motor that's been sitting for 10 years in a field, and not installing new valve stem seals, not properly shimming the cam to the cam specs, and not putting in aftermarket valve springs and retainers to take advange of the new cam's powerband? HKS 264's breathe good til 9500rpms. Stock springs float at 8000ish depending on turbo.

Ric said:With all the effort needed in the purchase of new shims, retainers, springs, stem seals... shit man, you might as well spend the extra $200 and get good cams from Jun or HKS.

AF1JZ said:Yea, evidence of the cams that I started this thread about. I don't care to hear anything about HKS, Jun, and BC cams. I am interested in the 2JZGTE stock cams!!! Hence the reason I said stop jacking this thread.
Ric said:bout 5-10 peak hp and 30whp under the curve with a higher rev range to mid 7000s instead of dying at 6500
AF - since somehow this thread has made an incredible turn off topic from talking about 2J cams and we're now talking about aftermarket cams, here is some good info provided by ZaZzn about his cam group buy.AF1JZ said:Knock it off Ric, don't jack with this thread anymore unless you have some hard evidence about the cams. I'm not trying to be a dick, but you do this all the time to threads and they go way off topic and they usually get locked.
Ric said:Ill see if i can get rudy to buy these for me
114whp gain? Jesus. That would put me close to 600whp on pump gas if I wanted
