Hello Everyone--
I would like to see how many of you would be interested to purchase Colt Cams. This is a great mod, for some the first mod, with great results. It is the biggest bang for the buck. This cam profile is mild enough where getting a piggy back to adjust air/fuel ratio, exhaust, etc. modifications are not necessary, although they do complement it. My goal is to send our cams in by April 15th. This should give most of us time to think, save, and get a set of cams. I purchased a set of cams from another member, so that I can still drive my car. You can also pull out a set from a junk yard, or send in your originals. The higher the number of participants, the higher the leverage I will have to score a deal. I don't know how much cheaper yet, but I will do my best. Info: 5SFE .256 duration .330 lift - $350 5SFE .260 duration .345 lift - $400 3SGTE .260 duration .345 lift - $350 3SGE .260 duration .345 lift - $350 1mz quad cam V6 - intake .262 duration .347 lift exhaust .264 duration .330 lift - $500 We need 6 sets or more (combination of 5sfe, 3sgte, 3sge is okay to get 6 sets) to get the deal excluding 1mz. Need 3 sets or more for the 1mz. Prices include shims and the return shipment. Payment is by money order or check. Turnaround is 2 weeks. Please post if you are interested and let's get a head count. Head count: 1. JasonX - 94 5sfe 2. Syaoran - 93 5sfe 3. 95CelicaST - Need vehicle info 4. Arsaces - 95 5sfe This post has been edited by JasonX: Mar 13, 2012 - 11:28 AM --------------------  |

The update is that I need more interest, lol. What I am trying to organize is not the typical "group buy" where we send one type of cams only. I am trying to generate enough business by sending him plenty orders of various types of cams to get a discount. I think cams is a great upgrade and I would like everyone in our community to be able to benefit from it.

Hello all, I went to the junkyard and pulled apart an engine so that I could get a better understanding of the process of removing the cams. Here are my findings:
