Wondering to know what are the differences between those JDM Cams and the one that offers by Nismo North America? Are they the same?

cheers,

APS,

I think those might be used for the timing chain or cam chain? Remember I saw those round part when you take off the engine cover...

cheers,

FairladyZ,

Is this similar to the sports resetting package?
Why in the world can't they bring this stuff to the
US, besides that we have crappy gas.

You gotta be kidding me!

$6-8k for 300PS?! It's insulting to me that they think we'll pay that much.

I'd rather spend the money on a GReddy kit.

octane ratings in the US and japan are different, in reality, their gas is like 94 or 95 on our scale. not much higher than ours unless your stuck with california 91.

Why is Nismo using a metal intake pipe? isn't heat soak an issue?

I think those two little round things look like the VTC bodies mentioned in the list. They're part of the CVTC system that sits on the end of the intake cams and houses the solenoids that differentiate the timing of the cams and between the two chains on each head.

this has been out in Japan for a few weeks now.

The pieces under the plugs are cam sprockets, give more advancement for cam timing

Thats interesting. That could be a good mod if sold seperatly.

Wonder how they improve it, lighter and maybe some adjustments can be made.

Yay...9 more horsepower, and a loss of 10 ft/lbs of torque vs US. Spec Cars. Although peak power is 200 RPM later.

the Japanese Spec 350Z gains 20 Horsepower, and torque stays the same...

Thats if i have all my information correct..
