Have 01 gsr skunk2 intake mainfold, aem cai, fuel regulato/rail.
would like to find a high perfomance set of cams that would be easy daily driven with good idle (and winter driven) for under $1500 canadian.

I have seen a set of Crane cams for 800 cad of coarse which are suppose to be pretty good, then I have also seen Cat cams for 499 that was here in Edmonton. How is your intake manifold?? I heard that if you have a stock top end the manifold sucks and you loose lots of bottom end is this true??

 

I'd recommend Skunk2 Stage 2's

or TypeR (or CTR)

keep in mind you'll need beefier valvesprings as well.

 

Weren't you the one to make 17x.xxhp with your skunk2 stage 2 cams?[QUOTE]I got some Skunk2 stage 2 cams for sale on ebay...

 

I would recommend Skunk2 stage 1. You can use your stock valvetrain and daily drive on them without any problems. Unless you want to get a little more involved and change the valvetrain, then I would go with Stage 2. It all depends on the $ you want to spend and what your plans are for your car.

 

that is exactly what I was thinking.

Get the stage one. That way you don't have to mess around with anything else.

Simplify!

you mean the Toda copies? Does Crower do any of their own R&D or do they just copy JUN and TODA? And even when they copy, they can't do it right so their cams keep breaking.

Tweak-- What do you think of dropping ctr cams in to my 94 gsr. this subject probably has been beat up but I am new. My car has a OPM prepared head with 025 milled off. I have header with pretty much open ehaust and a cold air box. the car is only used for road racing I got a cheap set of civic type r cams and wonder how they will work with my stock springs and retainers which are new. I also have a modified ecu with rev limiter deleted. I do have the shift lite set at 8500.

 

personally, I'm a little more conservative when it comes to making sure things are reliable. While I'm sure you can run the CTR's with your current springs, I wouldn't go revving that high on an extended basis with those cams.

there was a previous thread where a gs-r owner mentioned running ITR cams on an otherwise stock valvetrain without any problems....keep in mind that's a stock rev limit.

Personally, I would go ahead and get the beefier valvesprings. Portflows if you can afford them, or pretty much any other of the good springs out there work ( http://www.importreview.com) . At the very least get some ITR springs (they can be had for like $100 used here). All B-series retainers are the same. The ITR valves are a little ligher which makes a difference again. Also, with your head milled (the increased compression is great) but that leaves even less room to play with for valves.

 

Yes I was, but I just dropped a turbo in so I don't need them anymore.
