J-SPEC 2.0 FS-ZE intake camshaft

man, readin sumtin like that realy set u back, i kno sum ppl who bought cams from them r more than happy, but than again u got others who r sayin different,
i kno that by just droppin cams in u won't net much... but with adj. gears + EMS, and sum fine tuning a true potential of them should be seen.. there r those who think that by just dropping cams in, it'll do a world of a difference

oh well i'll just get the cam gears, EMS and valve spring first and i'll worry about cams after i get all that.

any of u kno if Eibach EVS Spring Kit from Corksport r any good??

peace

It's never worth it. let there altezas shine and there fart cans buzz its not worth being pulled over by the fuzz.(five-0)

This is why you see a lot of people with cut valve covers with the cam gears exposed though, it allows quick tuning.

is there a how to on this??or do u need a diff valve cover that's been allrdy cut?? Meant to ask this a while ago but forgat.... thx


peace
 
For these cams..are they straight drop in? Or is there anything that we should replace? I hear it would be a good idea to replace the valve springs as well but why wouldn't the stockers be okay?
While the vale cover is off, what else could be done?

Thanks

You can just cut it yourself. There's a seal between the valve section of the cover and the timing belt section (the raised area on the left)

You might want to replace the valve cover gasket while you have the cover off. As for the valve springs or shims, you should be ok. This cam doesn't open up the valves (lift) any more than the stock one, just opens them up for longer (duration).

It's a Mazdaspeed exhaust cam..not a Mazdaspeed Protege exhaust cam.
 
you might say that..and it might be true....but i "DROPPED" the cams on my engine and i felt a world of difference...

it may be that you don't have this cams, or maybe you did something else while doing the cams too (FMIC, EXHAUST, DOWNPIPE)

i wanted to install the cam by itself so that i could see a difference...and yes sir...as expected there was a difference...
i can't back this up with a dyno...but the RPM band seems more constant and it goes all the way to 6500 rpms while still pulling...it doesn't flattens down like the stock one...this one keeps making power throught the whole rpm band

my question is this...being that you are saying this is a waste of money...do you even have this cams installed??

last time i checked i dint say it was waste of money... um where anywere in the post did i say that, i just said that it bummed me out a bit after reading that thread, i wonna be sure when i buy sumthin its what i payed for and worth it. period... for me money doesn't grow on trees

peace
 
it's not that you said it was a wasteof money, you made it sound like a waste of money...

and you should really get those benjamin franklin seeds...they make a hell of a tree...lol
 
believe me, my wife is paying as much as i am paying for a LX, so MSP's aren't all that expensive...

and for the money i purchased mine for, i could had got one souped up msp from the forums....stupid me
 
yeah, when i got this ride there was a black msp in the show room and the guy was like "it would only cost u 120 bucks more a month" ... yeah :( ... and now with the cost of my car and mods i have I could have gotten an msp, but i love this car and i have much fun with it, and will continue :)

...back on the track...

Kansei which cams do u have?? i think u told me b4 but i forgat, srry
(btw very nice mp5, looks very clean)

peace
 
Right now I have the FS-ZE intake cam and the stock exhaust cam. .. waiting on the custom cam thing hoping that goes through.
 
i'm thinkin of getting FSZE intake cam - SRM exhaust cam - MAM cam gears - Eibach EVS Spring Kit.... it'll come around to $900, couldn't get it all at once but would just buy 1 thing at a time, still not sure but thats most likely set up that i'll go with.
psssttt Kansei ... what custom cam thingy u talkin about? u can tell me i wont tell any1 :)

peace
