So update, after asking around various places and doing a lot of reading and reaserch, turns out that this is really a 14 to 20 hour job, I was having second doubts about installing it at cuz the guy gave me a sky high rate, I will try to haggle with him, and get a bit lowered price, and install these bad boys after all, even though the install price will be high, but I have to bite the bullet one more time I inched close I can't turn back now lol pluse I can't turn my back on you guys after all of you have been waiting for results. Will go with the high price guy cuz he is the only one who seems to know what he is talking about pluse he has worked with tons of gtr's so he know the basic lay out of the Nissan engine plus he has worked on tons of evos as well

According to AllData it's actually a 16 hour job as per their time guide. 16.3 to be exact.

I know but I figured I would throw real times into the discussion as everyone is using guesses and approximations, just trying to help a little.

I'm not extremley familiar with AllData and the time guide they use but if that is warranty time as per Nissan than getting an outside shop to do that for an aftermarket cam install is a steal. Normally customer pay is 1.5x warranty so that would be 24.5 hours for this job, assuming AllData uses warranty times and there are no addition op codes for this job.

After looking at the Nismo cams on the 350 I defiantly see what's involved

So what do you think is it a risky job? But the 350 is a bit different than the 370 isn't it, shops here have a lot of experience with 350 but none so ever with 370 will that help?

It doesn't seem risky IMO but im not all sure of what's involved with the VVEL. It would seem as long as the VVEL control module is taken off and reinstalled carefully there would be no issues.
