if ur spending money on a cam get the 59300. if it was me thats the route id go.

ur cast mani and jackie chan wg and turbo are fine. get a new intake mani too.

work on the head. the rest of the setup is fine

59300 Cam, Crespo springs and retainers,good clutch, 3-4 bar map sensor if your running stock and a case of beer for the install.

Cant go wrong with either

Ported z6 IM w/ 70mm tb and spacer, 59300 cam and maybe some custom springs.

I'm sure that Chris M could source all of that for than 750usd. still have some money for any unforseen problems during your build.

chris · « **Reply #11 on:** May 25, 2009, 11:56:37 PM »

I also can cnc machine stock throttle bodies 3mm larger bore/plate for 80 bucks if you send in cores. Thats for b/d/h/f series. K series/v6 Honda stuff is 100 since its a little more labor to do them.

Im also going to make spacers for the smaller size throttle bodies also for the budget guys who are wanting to just bore over stock units.

Duh, binge on crack and hookers.

The lsd is a good choice, but making more hp isn't always the best choice. Whats your suspension setup??

I'd be looking at what could help get the power your making to the ground, ie adj upper control arms, replacing old worn out bushings and joints, or installing a complete energy suspension bushing kit,i personally felt this was one of the best upgrades i did, and a good shock/spring combo. This would also allow your car to hook alot better, and make your tires last alot longer. It really makes the car alot more enjoyable to drive.

Fuck the Zex cam, all they do is spool late. There are better, actual turbo cams, for the money.

How about ditching the ching chong meow fail snail?

Buy another beater to flip?

realAgentMurdoc · « **Reply #18 on:** May 26, 2009, 04:12:49 PM »

buy an MFactory LSD from me and I might have some crower springs retainers from a Y8 in the garage somewhere if you are interested. ;D

glustic · « **Reply #19 on:** May 26, 2009, 04:16:08 PM »

I would buy the cam and new valvetrain

For once I agree on something hotrex says.

hotrex · « **Reply #20 on:** May 26, 2009, 09:29:37 PM »

SDRAWKCAB · « **Reply #22 on:** May 26, 2009, 11:32:30 PM »

if your getting a cam and springs 59500 is the way to go.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #23 on:** May 27, 2009, 12:20:04 AM »

I have jk motorsports traction bars, koni yellows, tien greens, and a rear sway bar off a 4door integra. And also a getto ebay camber kit...

This is the better idea I think since I have the ES master kit for my car and have not installed the harded press in type bushings....

Camber kit
Pay someone else to put in the ES kit
Good alignment and install new lower ball joint

dvst8r · « **Reply #25 on:** May 27, 2009, 12:39:05 AM »

I like the prothane complete kit better then the ES one.

jeffsciv23 · « **Reply #26 on:** May 27, 2009, 04:07:43 AM »
