Cams And Cam Gears

[lovelessnator]

Hey guys I've got a mildly modified r33 gtst it's making 307rwkw but the coil packs were maxed out. The guys at addicted motorsports said it's screaming for more power as the 35/40 is just coming into it's range!

My 1st question is what coil packs should I be goin for? The block was built for a safe 600hp by pavtech so I would like the car to sit on/around the 350rwkw mark.

My 2nd question is the head is still running the standard cams and cam gears so I'd like to change them out to!

What cams should I be looking at? Id like to help out the bottom an mid range torque!

Cheers

Coilpacks maxing out? There are alot of guys running alot more power with standard coils. Maybe there broken causing a missfire but definately not maxed out and with cams something like the tomei poncams will be a straight drop in and will give you some nice midrange increase.

Look I'm unsure myself I've only just brought the car recently an I can only go by what the previous owner said when he had it tuned.. Would yellow jackets do the job for me? I don't no much about it to be honest:/

I've noticed alot of people use the poncams so they must be good! Do they require adjustable cam gears as you said there a direct fit?

Also does any one no the cost for labour to fit them?

You can use the yellow jackets allthough there not as reliable as say a new set of stock ones or spitfires. I use spitfires and highly recomend them top product. If your going to be still using vct which I assume you would be there is no need for an intake cam gear and as for exhuast you can put one on but you wont usually see any gains from mucking around with it. With my setup I have poncams and a adj exhuast cam gear with same power as you 310kw and I gained alot of midrange few kws up top and abit of response but my tuner said there was no more gains left to be made with playing around with the exhuast gear so it was left in standard postion.

Mmm ok:) food for thought! I might call them up an have a talk with them an see what they suggest an go from there I think, but in the mean time I'll get some better coil packs an a re-tune with abit more boost..

Thanks for your help mate, cheers
