You will not suffer any low-end loss with these cams. They will work fine with an auto trans and turbo.

Try to find someone who works for a Nissan dealer and they can order you some cams and maybe get them for a wholesale price.

Or if you cant do that, call the salvage yard ask for two ehxaust cams from a 91 ka24de only NO OTHER YEAR! Have a machine shop relocate the dowl pin to make it an intake cam.

Your local Nissan dealer should be able to get them from the Nissan motor sports book. or get them from the junk yard.

Tech it should be any KA from 91-93 they are all the same from all my readings on the matter.

Dont expect much in an auto anyway, trust me. I put in a basic s13 set (from a 91 as that was what was available to me) and didnt notice much of anything in my auto :) And when I put them in I checked the valve lash as well so thats not it, its the powerhungry slushy.

russ put them in his and got IIRC 9rwhp I got mabey 2 hehe And that was after intake exhaust timing gutting (later replaced with HS headder), and the likes.

Yes it is 248 on each for nismo's and stock is 240i 248e.
