no benefit if you have a 98+ ITR as it's the same.. if you have pre-98.. it ain't even worth it...

what kinda compression are we talking about for the type c cams? whould it work on a b16b with spoon head gasket?
I cant believe this thread is still going from 2004...
yeah i bumped it :)
but as most will agree.. it's better than every n00b starting a new post...
i actually found this in the all-motor or tech faq which everyone should visit more often... like you said its old.. good threads like this with plenty info in it get lost for that reason...
most of the +rep i give or on old posts like these i find...
ok, im gonna add to this 2004 thread.
i have a B18CR, and i was looking for the correct camshaft and camgears to upgrade to. After reading this thread, Toda A camshaft and camgears are the way to go if you dont want to change any of the valves, springs/retainers etc.
Anyone tried buddyclub spec 3 camgears and camshaft? would it be necessary to upgrade the valves/springs/retainers (not that i want to. no money for that after cams). considering its a ITR engine we are working with
cheers
jre
thanks.
if i was to upgrade the valve/springs and retianers, would i be looking at a much better gain or would it be the same as the current valve and springs on the ITR
cheers
Hi, Jezzah if you were going to keep your dc2 N/A why dont you consider spending a bit more money and doing your head up? like toda b cams or shunk 2 stage 2 cams, with springs, stems, retainers etc. its a bit more money but the return would be much greater... just my 2 cents
Thats what i had in mind, i'll do that instead, springs valves and retainers arent too expensive.
cheers
i have todaB in my b18cR, with standard piston. mid to high rpm range, quite good. low rpm, sigh, i'm not happy 95% of the time using the car since its a daily. i rather a TodaA2, it has low cam of specA and high cam of SpecB, best of both world..
never heard of TodaA2, but i'll look into it. ^ have got any upgraded springs or valve? or are you just running the camshaft with stock internals?
