New guy w/ RWD SR. Pic.
Hey guys, I drive a RWD SR, but I hear good things about you dudes. So I figured I'd join and say hi....that, and I'm in the market for some JWT S3 cams for my car to get me into the deep 12s this season. So if you have any for sale, let me know.

I'm kyle, I'm from St. Louis, and I drift, drag race, SCCA, auto-x, and crew for a rally team every now and then. Love racing and motorsports, all of it.

1997 240SX Kouki S14
Blacktop SR20DET
T28 turbo with bolt ons + fuel
JWT tune
Water/meth injection



Sup guys. Sell me your S3 cams.

I like what you've done with the S14.
You'll find the S3 cams soon enough. Funny you want the S3 cams. Everyone even the boosted guys go for the S4 HL cams. However if I ever did cams on the turbo car it would probably be S3 cams as well. Looking to save some money, or just keep the overlap down?

All I really care about is the area under the curve. It's a street car, through and through, and I'm not too interested in peak power. Just want grunty useable power.

Where should I be searching for the s3 cams for sale? In the NA section or FI section?

Btw, thanks guys. I've spent many years getting my car to where it is. And I drive the shit out of it! Hahaha

Check the N/A section for the most part, but it may pop up in the turbo section. However, you could post in the Wanted section as well (once you meet the prerequisites). That will encourage people who may not have gone through the process of posting their cams for sale.

I wouldn't be so sure that the S4 HL cams wouldn't give you more area under the curve than S3s. But that might depend on how sensitive your setup is to high lift cams down low in the rev range and your ability to tune for it. Aren't you afraid of running out of room on that turbo with some aftermarket cams? You're probably already running toward the upper limit of it's max flow capability, no?

Yea, getting close. I'm running 18psi on a GT28RS essentially. But I plan on moving to a GTX2867 over the season, but want to get the cams out of the way first because they are cheaper and will still net me a gain to enjoy before I can afford a near 2k turbo setup.

The S3s are definitely what I'm looking for, don't want to change springs or retainers etc...
