No...because no Miata had VVTi.

Dude...my 2001 has vvti. I can at least point out that much. Im not boosted.

Try Webcam. They should have camshafts for less than $700.00.

A cam swap is not too difficult.

Youre retarded.

Youre also going to need EMS, in case you didnt know, which is possible since youre so retarded.

web cams that ive seen are only for the 99 and 00 models unless there is something you guys know that the sales person does.. got a link??

miata2fast 03-09-2010 09:28 PM

You are right about that. Wedcam does not show vvt cams available. My bad.

I assume you contacted Integral Cam? I here Integral has a quality product, but I have never done business with them. My next camshaft will come from them. They show 2002 and later camshafts available on their site.

Love~My~MX5 03-10-2010 01:17 AM

Ya, I called integral a few days ago and they redirected me to someone else who gave me the same answers. "no cams for the vvt miata". I could send mine in to be redone for the price of new billets... FUCK THAT.

miata2fast 03-10-2010 08:11 AM

Do not be too apprehensive of sending in your cams or a spare set to be redone. All good cam manufacturers are capable of the procedure.

If a billet is not available for a particular cam, the cam manufacturer will reweld material back to your cam and then regrind to make higher lift and more duration. It adds some work on their end, so it is a task that is often more expensive than new cams. If they do it correctly, they can maintain the base circle which makes setting up the valvetrain less of a hassle.

well sure, Ive seen all these but I have a 2001 bro....
I do appreciate it but the listing is for 2002-2005... difference?? you seem to know. I had called them and they didnt seem to have anything for me by what they said.

Red94 03-12-2010 01:06 AM

No difference in 2001 and 2002 engine wise.

Love~My~MX5 03-12-2010 01:10 AM

Given the fact that you can't even comprehend a slight year listing and figure out for yourself that even if it says 02-05 but it says "for VVT engines"..knowing that ALL 01-05 1.8L are VVT and are all the same....God only knows how the conversation went when you called them :giggle:

Get with the program...son.



Yeah, you might think I'm being an asshole....but also remember that I am giving you the correct information.
