What is the primary benefit of installing these camshafts?

These HKS camshafts are designed to increase the duration that the intake and exhaust valves stay open. This allows for a greater volume of air and fuel to enter the cylinders and exhaust gases to exit, leading to improved engine breathing and a notable increase in horsepower and torque, particularly in the mid to upper RPM ranges.

What other modifications might be needed when installing these camshafts?

Installing performance camshafts often works best when paired with other engine upgrades. You may need to consider ECU tuning to optimize fuel and ignition timing, stronger valve springs to handle the increased valve lift and duration, and potentially upgraded intake and exhaust systems to fully capitalize on the engine's improved airflow.

Are these camshafts legal for use in California?

No, these HKS camshafts are not CARB approved and therefore cannot be legally shipped to or used in California. It is important to check your local emissions regulations before purchasing and installing performance engine components.

Product Details

HKS is well-known for making performance parts that help engines breathe better and make more power. These 264/264 camshafts are a prime example, designed specifically for the VQ35DE engine found in the 2003-2006 Nissan 350Z and the 2003-2007 Infiniti G35. If you're looking to unlock more performance from your V6, changing the camshafts is a significant step, and HKS has a solid reputation for delivering on that promise.

These camshafts feature a 264-degree intake and 264-degree exhaust duration on both banks. This means the valves will stay open for a longer period during each cycle, allowing more air and fuel mixture into the cylinders and more exhaust gases out. This improved volumetric efficiency is key to making more horsepower and torque, especially when combined with other engine modifications. The precise ramp profiles and lift figures are carefully engineered by HKS to work with the VQ35DE's valvetrain, aiming for a noticeable improvement in engine response and power output throughout the RPM range, particularly in the mid to upper ranges.

Installing camshafts is a job that requires a good understanding of engine mechanics and specific tools, often involving the removal of the timing components and cylinder heads. It's a project best suited for those rebuilding their engine or undertaking a significant performance build. Because these are performance camshafts, you may need to adjust or upgrade other components like the ECU tuning, valve springs, and potentially the intake and exhaust systems to get the most out of them and ensure the engine runs reliably. Please note that these camshafts are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
