I have a VVT model NB
And im looking for LUMPY CAMS
STAGE 2 - STAGE 3
I am aware that lumpy cams are only good for higher RPM im only getting it for the "rotary-like" sound. And im willing to put up with the cold start issues
WHERE DO I LOOK? VVT seems so limited when it comes to cams. I've found NONE
------
If cams are no good.. How else can i get a TAD more .. power + ROTARY sound. Without spending 10+k on a rotary conversion

The only Maruha one is the VVT version of the F-CAM, which is not very lumpy at all.
http://www.maruhamotors.co.jp/miata/parts/vvtfcam.htmlBut then again, it's the only cam upgrade that I've heard of for VVT engines.

Get a non vvt head. Run whatever cams you want.
Or talk to wazzah1975 on this forum about a custom set of vvt cams.

You won't fool anyone, the GM ran big cams on the stock computer for a while, until I got the E8, and they don't have much similarity at all.
Are you sure you have bought the right car for you? If you want a rotary, buy a rotary.

I'm not quite sure.
I never recieved a PM or anything saying my post was insulting, personally I didn't think it was that bad.
Perhaps when a person buys some advertising space it comes with a free piece of preferential treatment.
Edit:
to make sure this post remains on topic, my original comment was quite valid.
Selim wanted the noise of a lumpy idle. Removing a plug lead will provide a lumpy idle.
I fail to see how something said in jest (as MANY comments are on this forum, but as they are to non sponsors they remain un-deleted) can be considered offensive?

Dann, I think he meant the reliability of a rotor.
Could just get your existing cams reground.

You can't buy brains unfortunately.
Sure this post will be deleted, but it will also be seen prior.

I never saw it, i'm guessing it broke the forum rules, if there's a problem PM me with what you wrote.

Its a completely normal and sensible question that only requires an answer, not stupid remarks or pointless reply's all it needs is answers.
Yes Dann i ment ROTARY reliability. They say if u look after it they dont die, but i have many friends who STILL run into problems even after OVER-doing the looking-after
Your reply stupid HKS as it didnt answer my question does disconnecting your spark plug lead give u more power? No. U failed to answer the question. I know i can remove one spark plug lead. Its just common sense. Stupid Remark and it got deleted.. i dont see why your complaining.
That integral cams.. site doesnt seem to be loading up maybe its temporarily down.. ill give it another try later on.
EDIT: been googling around they seem to be my best bet. Anyone with VVT goes to them and "Fuji"
Regrounding cams ill have to do a little more research .. Find a few places and get some quotes. thanks.
edit: rang 4 places in 10min they all told me "VVT = stay away" one place recommended changing the head as nitrodann said. Then i can go crazy.. with that stuff.
