Alright i got a problem with the cams i got on my gsr, well just the exhaust cam its eating up the valve lifter and i was gonna replace the lifters and then change the ctr cam i got with a jdm b16a exhaust cam. One reason i think its eating the valve lifters is cuz the ctr cam gots ridged on it and its doing it slowly and makin it wear down. Well anyways my question is will that jdm b16a cam work as good as the ctr?? cuz im running ctr pistons with high compression. ill post the set up here in a min.
