I know this off topic, but its regarding the 97-99 ITR cams vs. 01 and CTR cams.
Im planning to purchase a set of cams for my GSR. I understand that the lift is the same between the two sets. They only vary in duration with 240 degrees for the 97-99 cams and 243 for the 01 itr and ctr sets (intake cam). The set of vary in price and availability.

My question is, is the 3 degrees of duration on the intake cam worth the extra price you car? Anyone selling some ITR or CTR cams, i have cash.

sure its worth the xtra cash for a couple more hp & torque

I have a good used set of CTR cams that I'm debating to sell or not, PM me an offer
I also have a Spoon intake cam I might be willing to sell as well (works great with a type-R exhaust cam btw)..

Spoon cams & Toda A's are like the next level up above a CTR cam.

If you want more power than the latter, I suggest the Toda B's then. But you'll have to do up your valve springs, get adjustable cam sprockets, chip your ecu, and visit a dyno tuner to extract the most/best power from the Toda B's.......actually, this is best thing to do with any of these cams. You'll make the most power from the Toda B's once you dyno tune though.
