ok so got some custom grind cams for my car 285.14 duration intake 276.24 duration exhaust 0.35921 peak cam lift intake

0.35728 peak exhaust cam lift.

now my issue is this, when i give it a some stick i get lifter noise and in some cases i get it missfireing sounds like a lifter isnt working correctly.

do i need bigger valve springs suited to the increase in lift?

cheers tim

used correct lube, did run them in.

yes still are std lifters, sure cam said they will be fine to use, but now im getting the issue with them.

could i get away with getting a new set of supertech upgraded springs or do i need lifters as well?

was considering going solid but alot of money to spend

ok so it says here to install these cams with intake/exhaust bucket lifts of .044"inch/ .015"inch at tdc for suggested intake/exhaust centrelines of 108*/116* respectively. use minnium valve spring loads: 70lbs on the seat, 195 lbs at full lift,280 lbs/inch spring rate approx.

i got no fing idea what i got to buy now, anyone got an idea or can put me onto someone who would know?

    • Definitely a good “future upgrade” option if you plan on keeping the car and dialing it in even further.
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
    • Yea, that is what I was getting at in my ramblings too. The nismo one actually is a 1.5 way and a 1 way. They don't do a *2* way because a true *2* way would have equal ramp angles. Or is that a true 1.5 way? Realistically I think a "1.5 way" does not actually exist. A diff can either lock in two directions or one. It also doesn't help that a LOT of people in Australia speak about 1.5 way diffs are referring to their 1 way diff.
