You're welcome.
For your application, these HKS 272 duration cams will do nicely:
2202-RT085 and 2202-RT086
(note these only work on the '93-'98 non-VVTi models)

With the oem valve springs, max 8500rpm is safe.
With dual springs and titanium retainers, 9500+rpm is easily doable.
Add shimless buckets to the setup and it should be good for 11K (no kidding - again, that's with a bone-stock oem shortblock!).

However, note that you don't really make your power with rpms alone in the 2jz-gte. The turbo is so integral to the overall performance...the turbo-driven horsepower curve will usually taper off after about 8000-9000rpms. You'll want to set things up so that your shifts maximally captialize on that horsepower curve. Use the nos as an aide to spool up the turbo quicker and you'll widen that horsepower curve even more.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
