Genuine Gibson Motorsport GT-R Cams

I have managed to get my hands on these extremmely rare cams

They are in great condition and come with a Cam Doctor specs sheets (done just last month)

They are suited to a very fast street or track car.

I can say the are nothing like anything I have seen, but, obviuosly work very well.

They are designed to over come the small exhaust valve size whilst maximising Max torque and Average power.

Specs will be provided on purchase.

"Eric was formerly the Winfield Racing/Gibson Racing, Group A Engine Development Manager. Eric was responsible for the engine development process and in his time with the team, produced some killer engines which were able to win twice at Australia's most challenging Group A touring car race, the Bathurst 1000 in 1991/2.

CAMS:

Group A touring car spec camshafts.

The camshaft specifications were developed and designed by Eric Engineering. The camshafts work in conjunction with the turbo set-up and radical exhaust design to deliver more power right through the rev range, not just in the top end where most other cams previously used provided gains.

With the current cam-turbo-exhaust-ignition combination, this motor produces more power at 3000 rpm than the previous motor did at 5000 rpm while using the same boost.

Eric's tuning and development makes Mike's GT-R " quite pleasant to drive in everyday traffic " - Something which Michael believes is very hard to achieve when extracting so much power at such high RPM's.

Driveability and strong torque right through the rev range is necessary for a road driven car"

turbos's were 350hp grp A

Exhaust was twin 3" primaries 130cm long into a single 4" (yes I also run this custom setup)

Location Adelaide

Price $800

Reason of selling(copied specs to billet)

happy to post, already stored in hard cylinders

Going by the above info does that mean these cams are suited to the N1 turbo's? the same as they used in Bathurst etc?

If the N1's you have are rated 320-350hp...There are so many types. If yours are garret 2860R-7 they may be a bit small. Grp A are bigger than N1 in the earlier Nissan models.

Hey just wondering if these are the same spec cams as in this post

" Camshafts were of 288 degree duration with their 10.88mm lift making " is that right?

cheers

the intake were 256 9.2's and i think the exhausts were 274 9.3's...not exact specs but around that ball park

my money's on......

"The Gibson Motorsport Cams(as used in bathurst) run more duration on the exhaust and .25 more lift, Inlet 256 @ 9.5mm lift Exhaust 278 @ 9.75 mm lift,the cams where done at an advertised duration of .020"

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
