You could call Nissan / Mazda Heaven down here in Ft. Worth, Texas and see if they'd send it to you by mail. 817-563-2277

S'where I got my Rack & Pinion for $60 and Hub and Assembly for $80 and a set of '93 rims for $160. Saves the monay.

You might as well get a performance cam shaft while you are at it, this spec will almost make about 15 additional HP@the wheels.
Hybrid KA is a highly reputable company. Gabe z, AKA devious KA in this forum sells it for $185 that is a super good deal.

I dont want to get a high performance cam shaft because im getting rid of the KA in about a year anyways to upgrade to either a CA18DET or a SR20DET or an RB25DET which ever I get my hands on first...I jsut need this cam shaft so i can get the car running untill the engine swap....but 185 for that cam shaft looks sexy...thanks for that site...im going to be picking that up within the next week... thanks again guys

I thought that the solid lifters for $300 was a bomb deal, do you know how hard it is to find solid lifters for even $400. There so hard to find. Hybrid KA is cool, and Gabe schooled me on some KA knowledge, pretty cool guy.........

uhhhh. if you have a messed up cam....don't you think something ELSE might be jacked up to??????

Why not just find a cheap used head somewhere...

I have a 96 dohc head that will be available in a week. I don't even know if it will work on your block...but just lettin ya know.

and if you haven't bought the car yet, you might want to further investigate how the cam got messed up.
