Cams for VG? Anybody tried the Nismo ones...

So I was cruising this new site that's pushing the GD on MEVIs, and I saw these:

Anybody tried either? Will they even work with our engines?

It says VG30E so i presume itll work, but it could be a typo and instead be VG30DE,(DOHC version) and not work in the max. But, it would be cool to hav EURO cams on 3rd gens!

i think they were even cheaper from somehwere else. it was on a 300z site but i can't remember. i think it was around 3-400 if you sent your old one to them.

There was someone who had aftermarket cams in the VE.... Bryan H maybe? I dunno, but he said they weren't really worth the cost.

euro cams are in my vg-t. they only add about 10 hp and something like 20-30 ft. lb. of torque when boosted. since i don't have a before boost and after boost comparison with the same cams i couldn't tell you if were worth it or not.

i'd say the euros definitely aren't worth it. the jwt stage 2 might be worth it.
