Cams - what to get ????

ok guys, now b4 anyone starts and i know there are many posts about cams and so forth on here. But i want other peoples opinion on what to get for my motor not what other people have. 

 

i have looked into cams and so forth but havnt really got a definitive answer yet, so i would like other peoples opinion on the matter so i can make a educative descision on what to buy. pref something that drops straight in and i dont have to change anything.

ok so my specs are as follow

ecr33 - series 2

rb25det

hks bottom end work

standard cams and so forth on top

ff plenum

hks gt-rs turbo - not sure on trim currently running 15psi - want to run 18 -20 psi

turbosmart wg40 wastgate - currently spring set 11 psi

greddy oled - boost controller

power fc

still has vct aswell, dont realy want to get rid of that unless its an easy job. 

currently changing fuel injectors to 1000cc from standard

boost comes on around 3200rpm onwards - responsiveness from idol to boost is very good want to try and retain that

so the question is what cams should i be getting to work between the 3000rpm range to 7000 rpm, but i also want it to sound a little lumpy if u know what i mean. i will be eventualy changing over to the haltec ecu with rotational idol, but for now the power fc is good.

 

so anyone have any qood information so i can choose the right cams - and please no abuse or telling me to sell my car as i have seen on other posts ???????

Tomei Poncams...256 inlet and exhaust or go to 264 exhaust  if you are going bigger later.  Set dial in to zero [so no a/m cam pulleys needed] and you get to retain your VCT.

Have a look at the turbo results thread, its all in there.

      RB25 S2 Idles but doesn't want to rev

      By Trilbyte · Posted

      The 1000ccs are side feeds but they're not currently installed, had my old factory ones in for leak testing purposes, only decided on them because front facing plenums and good top feed rail kits are out of my budget at the moment, are they really that problematic? Had a set of yellow jackets that lasted me 5 years, no real issues, only replaced them chasing this misfire issue that ended up not being ignition related 😄

      Are those 1000cc side feeds? If so, that's part of your problem. I have 1480cc and they idle at stoich on 98RON, and all the way to E85. Also your coil packs.....

      Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated

      Any feedback on GReddy Turbine Kit T620Z in r33 GTST/RB25DET?

      Nice modern Hypergear high flow would be perfect.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.
