Won A Set Of Cams For My Rb30det

[Guilt-Toy]

Just got a phone call from the guys at Boost Magazine, I entered a competition at Compak Attak by subscribing to Boost magazine for a set of Kelford Cams and I won!

Woohoo!!

Details of the cams that are available to me are here..

I think I will be going with the 264 with 9.35 lift because the engine only turns to 7300rpm MAX and has stock balancer and a N1 oil pump, or should I go 270's??

So cheers to the guys at Kelford Cams & Boost Magazine, my car is finally going to get some cams. Will do some install pics and before after Dyno Sheets to send back to kelford for feedback.

Oh you lucky bastard!

Well done mate!

[Angus Smart]

Competitions actually do get won!! crikey!

good work!

[fatz]

3 litre = 270 cause it has the capacity to pump it without a lopy idle

[badgtr34]

haha yeah my friend won a 350z from a shopping centre!

i would go the 264 they both have the same lift and you aren't revving the thing massively so no need to go the 270's.

[WHITER33GTS-T]

Nice work. Should give them to me... lol

[Adriano]

Will be very interesting to see if it can pass a drive cycle with the bigger cams, cant think of a more deserving winner, congrats. I would go the 270's only because i want to know if you can get it past the drive cycle so i can

[Tangles]

MAN thats awesome

I keep trying lotto but havent won, yet

congrats

go 264's I reckon will be good with some porting work

[bloodzkull]

can you mix and max. go 264 inlet and 272 exhaust. that's what i did with my gtr. real nice setup, i actaully didn't lose any down low. the new graph sit's on top of the old one til about 5500rpm then start to climb higher.

[toan]

wow! ur very lucky.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

nice!

[r33_racer]

yeh we have 264 and 272 also...Works well.

Congratulations mate...I bet you feel awesome! Nothing quite like winning shit...especially car stuff and ontop of that real performance car stuff!!! Fark im jealous now!

[Guilt-Toy]

cheers ppl.

I am going to stick with the 264's. I do not rev this car so the smaller the better.

I was going to race the car this weekend but I will put it on hold untill the cams are in!

I aint sure I even needed the extra power but this is going to be a great test!

[Phobic]

how much difference would the 270's to the 264's be

[Guilt-Toy]

how much difference would the 270's to the 264's be

seeing that the lift is the same then it would be just change the revs where the power cuts in. I need the power to cut in as soon as possible.

congrats on the win....you should put the GT35 back on and go for 400rwkws now

its still on there the gt3040 is for sale

[TiTAN]

By the looks of it you wont be alble to keep the VCT, will be interesting to see the power difference down low, stock cams with vct vs 264's without.

Unsure if you have modified the inlet yet but with a nice exhaust manifold and inlet manifold mid 260's make their peak power around 7000rpm.

Look at Al's RB30det for example, nice inlet and exhaust mani with baby 256 cams but that too also holds well to 8000rpm and with some absolutely ripping mid range.

Mine with 265's idles baby smooth but if slightly leaned out on idle it will start to cam over 'slightly'. So tune it slightly lean on idle and then enable the o2 to pull it in when you want it to idle smooth.

Mine went from ~14degree's on 17psi to ~20-21degree's at peak power and made an extra ~30rwkw on pump.

Went from nosing over after it made peak power at 6000rpm to holding power flat for an extra almost 1500rpm, when tweaked with gears peak power is up 500rpm and still holds just as well with no loss in power to 7500rpm (my limiter is also at 7300rpm as Im still running the factory balancer)

The ramp rate on my 265's are a little more aggressive that the grind you will be getting

Mine have 227.9 degree's at 1mm vs 216degree's at 1mm for yours so mine run a ramp rate similar to their 270degree grind.

hrmm.. In stating that I'd almost be inclined to run the 270's.
