Don't need 280's, Danny. Stick with the ones you have. Will spool better and can easily make 500rwkw. The 280's will make power delivery worse especially for the power you are chasing.

Nothing wrong with a T51R - plenty enough for the power you want.

As mentioned above, its been done plenty of times before.

I agree that you should get a 5 bar map sensor and give it whatever boost it needs to make 500rwkw.

8.5k -9k max.. Im sayin i wont buy the map sensor, im just asking is worth my gettin bigger cams?? And finding out how much vacuum would i lose? Like i said before doing things once (engine wise) and thats it...

Racepace can spin to 8000 on stockers, I, personally have spun to over 9000 on 270's without falling over, the went back to aggressive 260's (custom grind and still think they're too big).

I don't understand this huge duration rubbish where you're rpm is sub 10,000 rpm. Unless you like a peaky powerband, you're going backwards!

Bah, it's not the cams are too big - it's the bottom end is too small :P

A very long time ago I was reading up on cams for a rb series engine. I can remember that most people that used that wasn't happy at all right here on this site. Then ended up swapping therr cams out for the stock set. Some made way more power using the stock ones.

    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
