I don't think you will ever see cams sold for the car at all - simply far too costly to develop. Nissan has so far 0 competition plans with the new car, which means blanks will not be offered for those who have the means to grind their own cam. Forging your own blanks is simply far too cost prohibitive, as there is a miniscule market for those who would buy them. Throttle body spacers are certainly easy to do, but utterly useless (zero performance gain, their only advantage would be for forced induction guys looking for a nice and easy way to install a boost gauge). Intake manifold development is extremely time consuming and costly, and given the lack of fully programmable ecu's for the car, would not offer any real gain for any developer. The previous Z's never needed a torque dampener, neither do the new ones. Civic Si, different story - the factory mounts are very soft on that car (we have one, so I know that car pretty well too ![]() |
