I decided to install a set of Gsc s1's along with new timing belt this weekend. After the install I took it for a test drive and to my surprise I didn't notice a bit if difference at all. To my surprise I look at the old ones in took out and they had s1 engraved on the ends of them...just my luck. I guess that's what I get for buying a used car, on the flip side at least I have a new belt and I know what cams I have now.

 

lol thats kinda funny... well at least you got a new set of cams now!

 

LMAO

that sucks lol. you should have gone witht the s2's....

 

lol, nice. ive done that with arp head studs.

bught em befor puling the valve cover just to find out I alrdy had em(on my last evo)

 

I was so excited and ready to feel the power increase, couldn't wait for the end of the week to get here so I could get started on it. After all that work to get let down lol. I guess it's time to save up for the next project. Not sure what to save up for next, still need it for daily driving.

 

i say sell both S1 sets and get S2 with a set of springs

 

A tune if you don't have one

 

+1
s1's are a very mild cam

 

lol atleast you have a new set of cams and new timing belt..

 

During the install I discovered arp head studs already installed too lol. I'm too chicken to take it past 8k to find the limiter...but I know it's not 8k lol

 

That sucks bro try to sell the old ones atleast


I bought an used car with cams unknown cams lol but looking that all the mods the cars has are hks brand I believe the cams have to be hks also lol

 

Could you see the markings with the cams installed or where they on the ends and couldn't be seen until the cams were removed. I'm in the same boat, I'm unsure of what cams I have in there, stock or not. A picture would help if you have one.
