Quick question about the nismo cams. Are they worth the money and effort? Thanks.

 

It all depends...

What are you looking at gettign out of your car?

NA / FI application?

etc etc...

 

NA I would not recommend the NIsmo cams just from my own searching and experiences

 

It depends on where you spend most of your time in the power band...

If you are a daily driver who doesnt spend much time in the high RPM's (5K and above) then NISMO cams will do you better for that low end passing power...

If you spend more time in high RPM's, Track / Drag Racing... then cams like JWT

 

Great all around street cam! Solid 15 whp peak gain alone!

 

i love my nismo cams! Its a good mod. U can definitely feel the torque and power in low,mid, and high rpm!

 

I got a beed on some new ones for $ 575.00. Thanks for the input.

 

Damn!!! Turn that bead into a sale then. Get those puppies now and don't look back!!!! That's a lot of money saved for the install.

But, eh, make sure they are what they say they are.

 

How much for installing cams? $1000+?

 

Nah, I would say 3 to 6 bills depending on where you go.

 

a member from this forum did my nismo cams install for $500! Good deal! Local shop was quoting me at $850-900.

you must change gaskets and seals

 

naw, i kept the stock valve springs but changed the seals. I only had 9k miles on the car before the install.

 

If you remove the valves for anything put in new seals.. its cheap enough rather then the labor later on...

$118.95 for the gasket kit when doing the cams only..

If doing your valves / springs etc... its best to get the valve re-grind kit since it includes the head gaskets and valve seals...
