Default camshaft gurus please read this...Tried search sleepless nights

I have a set of Supposed " type R" camshafts. they are supposed to be 95 Itr camshafts. My camshafts has 3 portruding rings and 1 engraved ring on the intake side and my exhaust has 3 portruding rings and 1 engraved ring as well. So they kinda look like 92-93 cams but with the engraved ring. Lemme know if there are any stock cams that match the description.

I thought ITR's were produced in 1995 with the 4X114.3 wheel bolt pattern?

that was 96.
unless you mean "actually" made which would be 95, but model year is 96...

i've seen that picture 3 times too many. As you read my description of my cam and compare that to what you see in those pics, they are nothing alike. Someone with knowledge please post

When you degree them in, on the VTEC lobe , see if the lift and duration are correct for "R" cams.

It's pretty simple. Anybody got a ITR Helms manual? It will tell you what the measurement is from the nose to of the lobe to the heel (opposite side of the nose).

Put a $25 caliper on it and you basically done.

B17 cams, from what I have learned, are identical to 94+ GSR cams. At least in terms of specs.

I have seen just about all the b series cams there is. The ffsquad cam pics are were always right on the money for me. The rings can look the same from one cam to another sometimes.

quite being freaking lazy and buy a caliper or go to your local acura dealership. When i was concerned about recieving fake R cams, i went to the dealership, had a mechanic check the specs of the vtec integra cams (all specs were on the same page i believe) and in a matter of 5 minutes i had my answer. Not a single person can help you here with the description you've provided, and many people in this thread have tried. Suck it up and go find out for yourself

PS. my "r" cams turned out to be gsr cams, resulting in a major ebay hassle ending with me getting some minty brand new skunk2 cams.
