it's possible redz they had a different number for a different year though it was the same thing. i wouldn't know why you can't find it though.

ohh ok... thanks a lot, with that numbers i will check my Intake cam and see which one is it.
one more question though..... what number is in the 2.0 cam instead tthe 24100-23003 or the 24100-23002 in the 1.8cam.?
maybe with this numbers I can tell quicker which cam is .
thanks

the only way i could tell when i changed was the revs.
in second gear, it was quite noticable.
at 4k, with my stock cam, it would hiccup, after the gt cam went in, it was so smooth.
but i'm probably not helping, so...

It is hard to tell what the cam did for me.. I also installed my UR underdrive crank pulley at the same time.. But I do know that the car keeps pulling up to around 5500 rpms.. and then starts to lag off.. a few hundred RPMS higher than stock.
With the CAI the idle also took on a deeper note.

A little off topic: I was wanting to do this mod also but do not have a torque-wrench... Are the cam journal bolts THAT easy to break or has someone else done the swap with just a normal wrench? If necessary, I'll get a torque-wrench but I have managed thus far without one...

I broke one of the middle journal's bolts WITH a torque wrench.. granted, I thought I was overtightening it, but I kept waiting for the "Click" that never came. For some reason my wrench just decided to be ornary for that particular bolt.
Thankfully it was a middle one. Though it was a PITA to drill and retap the head for a new one.

ok, so you didnt lose torque? do you feel a little lazy the car in low rpms?
i want to install this cam, but I was thinking about that is really worth it?
or do you think is better the pulleys instead the 1.8cam?
thanks
