jakeoster Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Hey guys, I'm mapping out what I want to do with my car and getting a plan together. After having my car tuned and running correctly; I discovered that I really like the immediate response of the stock turbo. It spools so fast that it feels like a supercharger haha, it's fun. Here's what I'm planning on adding: Higher flowing injectors 300zx MAF Bosch 044 fuel pump Nismo adjustable fuel regulator That's in addition to the Power Fc and all the other basic bolt on stuff I already have. Would an exhaust side adjustable cam gear and an aftermarket camshaft do anything of significance with this setup? I figured I would leave the intake side alone due to it having VCT and people seem to conclude that the exhaust side leaves more to be desired. Not looking for substantial horsepower gains, just improvements while keeping the car responsive for mountain runs and auto cross while retaining reliability. Thanks!

jakeoster Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 I guess I'm going to be the first one to attempt this... Deciding between the Tomei Type A or B Poncam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Purple240zt Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Your cams won't be your limitation. I would leave them stock in that situation. I still run stock cams as a matter of fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djz Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 How much boost are you running? The standard injectors etc should be able to cope fine until the exhaust wheel falls off your turbo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayaapp2 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I made a post I believe not long ago regarding Fidanza Cam gears. The stock intake gear is adjustable! But most do not mess with it. While I was never able to dyno my car with the exhaust gear installed, I did try retarding it a few degrees with no noticeable affect, and I did not expect to 'feel' the difference. You should be able to see it on the dyno though as this is a fine tuning adjustment. After a few hours I pulled the gear back off and sent it back to Fidanza as I experienced an issue with the gear teeth meshing with the timing belt. Im pretty sure the belt was gonna loose in short order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
