Cams don't cost less than $100....
Otherwise, I'd love to get a good set in my Z.
Speaking of which, I'm tempted to get my hands on the Osiris kit. I think it's time to upgrade the ECU and get the engine's full potential with my mods. What do you guys think?
I've got the exhaust, Crawford plenum, JWT intake. I think that's all the power mods I have.

Alex I hope you know what you're getting your self into when installing headers, especially if you're just getting them to see how long it takes for them to crack...They're a pain in the *** to install not to mention how long it takes too... GL tho....You do know that you have to drain the coolant right?? But I'll let you in on a little secret.. The easyiest way to install headers is.......When the engine is out of the car!!! lol.... I'm serious.. Just make sure you mark the steering column before you disassemble it.. You might as well throw in cams while you're at it being that you'll have the coolant drained already.

Yeah, if I get cams and other chit for the engine I would most definitely have to do a tune.

I would never want to do a cam install unless I had all the tools, the right tool shop, plenty of time, and some help. As a matter of fact, I think it would be cool to have a standby engine to work on and do a practice run install.
Can anyone say auto mechanic shop? I wish they had that on the weekends for guys like me.

Damn, those 408 gears are over $1k including the swap or core charge. Z ology sells them fully completed. I thought cams were around $800 to $1k. No matter what, the install charge will be huge.

Damn you Greg. I'm thirsty and want a beer now. I kinda knew you meant the amount would include the labor, but it sounds like the install for the rear diff would be a little easier than the cams. Yes? I agree that it's a lot of money to install those cams, though. I don't know how labor intensive that is, but I'm sure it's not easy.
$470 for the gears? That's crazy cheap! I just pm'd Z ology about his FS thread. I guess he's a Nissan tech that does those in his spare time. Still, it comes out to over $1k after the core return and shipping. And that doesn't include the install charges.
