Genuine Gibson Motorsport GT-R Cams

I have managed to get my hands on these extremmely rare cams

They are in great condition and come with a Cam Doctor specs sheets (done just last month)

They are suited to a very fast street or track car.

I can say the are nothing like anything I have seen, but, obviuosly work very well.

They are designed to over come the small exhaust valve size whilst maximising Max torque and Average power.

Specs will be provided on purchase.

"Eric was formerly the Winfield Racing/Gibson Racing, Group A Engine Development Manager. Eric was responsible for the engine development process and in his time with the team, produced some killer engines which were able to win twice at Australia's most challenging Group A touring car race, the Bathurst 1000 in 1991/2.

CAMS:

Group A touring car spec camshafts.

The camshaft specifications were developed and designed by Eric Engineering. The camshafts work in conjunction with the turbo set-up and radical exhaust design to deliver more power right through the rev range, not just in the top end where most other cams previously used provided gains.

With the current cam-turbo-exhaust-ignition combination, this motor produces more power at 3000 rpm than the previous motor did at 5000 rpm while using the same boost.

Eric's tuning and development makes Mike's GT-R " quite pleasant to drive in everyday traffic " - Something which Michael believes is very hard to achieve when extracting so much power at such high RPM's.

Driveability and strong torque right through the rev range is necessary for a road driven car"

turbos's were 350hp grp A

Exhaust was twin 3" primaries 130cm long into a single 4" (yes I also run this custom setup)

Location Adelaide

Price $800

Reason of selling(copied specs to billet)

happy to post, already stored in hard cylinders

Going by the above info does that mean these cams are suited to the N1 turbo's? the same as they used in Bathurst etc?

If the N1's you have are rated 320-350hp...There are so many types. If yours are garret 2860R-7 they may be a bit small. Grp A are bigger than N1 in the earlier Nissan models.

Hey just wondering if these are the same spec cams as in this post

" Camshafts were of 288 degree duration with their 10.88mm lift making " is that right?

cheers

the intake were 256 9.2's and i think the exhausts were 274 9.3's...not exact specs but around that ball park

my money's on......

"The Gibson Motorsport Cams(as used in bathurst) run more duration on the exhaust and .25 more lift, Inlet 256 @ 9.5mm lift Exhaust 278 @ 9.75 mm lift,the cams where done at an advertised duration of .020"

    • Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners
    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
