JUN exhaust cam shaft finally arrived

Kingbaby · 09-27-2012, 04:37 AM

clearly not worth it....

bump for driver impressions/video/flybys

all that exciting stuff

JC671 · 09-28-2012, 05:22 PM

It'll be interesting to see how the car responds. GL man and I hope the install goes well. When your tuned and running right we can run again (no bottle like last time)

Kingbaby · 09-28-2012, 05:43 PM

nice

7419sundat · 10-01-2012, 06:41 PM

Any updates?

Z_ealot · 10-05-2012, 08:24 AM

ok it has been a week since navyboy dropped the car off, any updates at all?

red6spd · 10-05-2012, 11:04 AM

So let me get this straight. He is having them installed but will not have dyno numbers because there is no dyno, which I can also assume he cant dyno tune the car to find out if the car is running properly with the cams?

That sounds about correct....

not necessarily true. hook up a wideband o2 sensor to read AFR's and u can street tune it just fine

Navyboy916 · 10-16-2012, 06:06 PM

Ok so here the update. Friday I will be going to take pics of the engine when it's open. I had to wait for some seal to come in cause the dealership had none for when they put the engine covers back on. They just came in. The can install will be finished by beginning of next week. The Nissan manual calls for two to three full days but here on Guam I have to plan for longer. That's just the island life here lol. I am getting other things done to the car as well at the same time. Sorry for the long delay. That's what happens when u live on an island in the middle of bum **** nowhere lol. Hope u guys are still interested.

Wow -- good luck!

Do you have a baseline to compare it to?

Navyboy916 · 10-17-2012, 07:26 PM

Unfortunately we don't have a dyno here on Guam. I don't have actual numbers but I will show video to help people decide if they want to get the cams. Sorry that's the best I can do.

I find it odd that the only person who does cams does it OUTSIDE the US, in one of the only places without a dyno.

No offense, but I just find it weird.

But... how will we (or you?) know if it made a worthwhile difference?

Can you at least datalog a 0-60 or 1/8th mile (or ideally a 1/4 mile) run somewhere to compare and contrast before and after cams?

Actually, given known weight and some values for speed, we can probably find formulas to roughly estimate whp before and after.

Not as good as a dyno, but far better than nothing.

Navyboy916 · 10-17-2012, 08:15 PM

Obviously u have never been to Guam. It's an island in the middle of nowhere. I have a couple of other guys with 370z on here they can chime in and will say the same thing. Again sorry this island is pretty primitive still.

370Z Purist · 10-17-2012, 08:54 PM

No, I have not been to Guam, but that's exactly what I just said.

The only person to do cams, in the middle of nowhere.
