is there really a diff. and do jdm itr's use ctr cams. i currently have a ctr intake cam in my 98.

 

same thing

 

So close, they are the same.

 

There are those that say the ctr intake cam is 3 degrees more aggressive....i dont know how much of a difference that really makes though.

I think its that the 00-01 ITR intake (CTR) cam has 3 degrees more overlap than the earlier 97-98 ITR intake cams. I've got one sitting here which I'll be putting in my 97 soon, though I'm planning on doing an intake at the same time so I'm not sure I'll be able to quantify the improvement due to the cam, itself.

We'll see how much Steve wants to do on the car this weekend.

Boingo!

3 degrees longer duration on the Vtec lobe for the CTR and USDM 00-01 ITR intake cam. If the cam profile between the two isn't exactly the same, no one has proved any difference.

 

OK correct me if I am wrong. From what I heard about everyone saying so far on the cams:

95-97 JDM ITR same as 97-99 USDM ITR
98-01 JDM ITR/98-01 CTR same as 00-01 USDM ITR
