Custom parts with part numbers, means there are CADs and engineering to back them up, otherwise they wouldn't exist.

Grinding cams is no big deal, but the ramp up and duration are, so someone, somewhere, designed them and tested them to the point where they have been referenced.

I'm just curious as to how difficult they will be to come by, and where I may come by them...

And when the interim is completed, I could be interested in taking them off your hands.

I love cams.

Swapped in my new MOST Bose adapter box. So far it works great, with NO alternator whine like my old one. It was also $50 less, which is nice.

I have a spare set of these if you are looking for a set.

I take it one of the intake sets have a slighter higher lift and duration?

powdrhound

I can’t remember the exact number but It’s actually a decent amount more duration if I recall. Chris measured and wrote down the numbers of the OEM cams for comparison. I would imagine low end will be impacted a bit but that does not really concern us as the engine has plenty down low and is never operated below 3500 during track use anyway.

The thing I like about cams is how they completely change the character of a given mill. I recall, some years ago, reading about the street version of the GT1 and its engine connection to the 996 series turbo. Changes, to make it more street able, included a bump in displacement, lower compression pistons and changes with the cams. I am unable to recall exactly the reference to cams outside of meeting emissions, but I have to wonder if adding a slightly higher lift, longer duration unit to the turbo would bring a more 'motorsport' feel to the 3.6. I wonder even more if the Schrick grinds are in fact based on the GT1 street version, and if they are, how very cool is that?

There didn't seem to be detailed specs on the Schrick website, but if you happen to have the numbers on them handy, I would be interested to see them. I don't think you have to worry about your bottom end very much, your torque numbers support sufficient acceleration indeed.

When I run the side dump on my Honda, the Toda Spec Cs, at idle, make it sound like a 2 stroke...

Replaced the engine mounts today, drilled through heatshields and intercooler brackets and used ss washers bolts and wing nuts for easy removal! Also changed out all the incandecent lights into zevo leds! Theyre not blinding but they do illuminate the housing!

Seems those speed connectors rust through eventually! No more exhaust rattle or thunking!
Next week Coolant reservoir! Then fuel pump and lines! I am not looking forward to my coolant reservoir.

After the fuel pump and lines i think im set for failure items foe the next 10 years! Unless my alternator fails or my power steering goes out...
Super.

Coolant reservoir is easy. Remove airbox, disconnect the lines and the one or two retaining nuts, reservoir slides right out.

Lol someone told me sunroof was super easy. Spent 3 hours trying to pull the panel out because it ripped the rubber weatherstrip and it wouldnt come forward lol. I really hope youre right lol.

I dont have to remove the metal intake splitter?

Carlo_Carrera

Sunroof is not super easy. Should've asked me about that, LOL.

Coolant tank is super easy. There's no need to remove the Y-pipe or inlet pipe. If you feel you are cramped for space just lower the engine a couple of inches.

EDIT: One thing I forgot, you will have to remove the fuel filter.

Lol when all the maintenance catches up im gonna weld sheet metal to the sunroof opening and repaint it then source some carbon fiber weave and stretch it over the headliner supports and harden it; that panel is not light lol.

I looked at some of the true carbon replacements and you can buy a car with what some of those cost.

Only 37,000km. After chancing front suspension noise which ended up being ball joints, I got the wheel alignment. 2 trips, 4 hours an $250 later it drives like a normal car. No more knocks, rattles, and darting over ruts.
Question: why would the rear toe and right rear camber go out? I didn't touch it.

Carlo_Carrera

Wear?
