Ok so I just called Nissan for a quote on the labor for installing these cams and installing new valve springs. I asked and the guy put me on hold, when he came back he said thyley don't do that there. So a very reputable Nissan dealership doesn't do any engine work on there own car's. That's good to know!!!

They designed these cams for a collaboration car with a customer/partner shop of theirs, so that's why you unfortunately see a fully modded motor being used with the cams. This is the car that the cams were spec'd on: New Prototype Front Bumper Design

At the very least, those wondering what gains they would get from a full N/A build now have an answer. High comp pistons, rods, exhaust yields only 25whp gain. I know details are missing but that doesn't seem worth it to me.

Your best bet is to call Jun. I imagine you need the package they specced out.

You shouldn't need anything more than the cams and an uprev tune (might not need that). Jun is going to recommend the entire package, that's how they make their $.

It should work with oem springs but I would throw down for some aftermarket springs. I don't think you'll need to modify the valves and heads otherwise. If I was doing this I would go into it with springs, cams and most importantly a tuner I trust because this has not been done before outside of Jun.

Realistically speaking, it makes sense to run their package...the question is whether you actually need to replace the VVEL actuator, which is the only really expensive part...

The issue surrounding the need for aftermarket springs is an unknown factor. Also it is important to find out what tuning solution Jun used. If these cams require Jun's own tuning program exclusively I'd pass.
