Default Where to get CAMS installed at?

For those with NISMO cams or other brand name CAMS, where did you get them installed at?

and how long was it down?

How much did it cost for the install?

Thanks,
Victor

My dealer said that they will install anything I want. Plus he can get me decent deals on Nismo stuff. The going rate is around 55.00 per hour. He also wants to see the manaul for ATI Procharger to see if whent he best install time would be, ie 5000+ miles or whatever. Anyways good guys there at Country Motors Nissan in Butler, PA.....

Vincent's Foreign Car Service in Covina, CA. i left the car there for a week since i had other stuff put on also. install price is probably gonna run you ~7-800 since its suppose to be a 13-hr job.

My dealer charges me 30 bucks an hour and gets me NISMO at cost so most likely I will have mine installed there pretty soon right after I figure out what wheels I want. Hmm, or should I get cams first?

$30 per hour! Is that for a Nissan dealer? If so, that is cheap compared to California Nissan dealer prices.

$700.00 is the going price. It is quite the job. Don't forget no matter who's cams you get, to contact me for your gaskets. We have put together a "cam install" kit. Cost's $80.00 also you will need to have a dealer bump your idle 100rpm or the car will feel like it wants to stall coming down to an idle. For those of you with better than the fuel we get in Calif, have the dealer also advance the timing a couple degrees. All of this has to be done with the dealers consult tool.

$1232 cams, $700 labor, $80 gaskets, $60 consult (ecu). For a total of $2181.00 with Calif sales tax out the door. When do you want to drop it off!!!
