OBX cams?

Agent935 · 11-12-2006, 04:41 AM

So, Matt's exhintake got me thinking about cams. Now having a 1.6, short of MAJOR alterations, I can't do the exhintake. But looking at ebay I came across THIS and it of course I am curious. There is NO info over on ^.net on these things. there is some info on cams mostly saying 264 is probably the most you want to run without aftermarket fuel control.

But really how good can these cams be? could they be basic copies of the HKS cams? OBX stuff seems to be hit or miss. Opinions anyone?

I'm interested in the same cams.

from experience, OBX cams are actually not bad at all. I'd get them some time soon.

Just watch out, apparently the guy has no pictures of the cams he's selling, the pictured cams are VTEC cams for some honda.

Wow, are you saying these cams give my Miata VTEC?

Pretty interesting, especially considering the price. Do they have 1.8L apps?

My only OBX product is the stainless catback dual exhaust, and the fit and finish as well as the welding was better than I expected. Let us know about the cams if you get them.
