BC cams work. They work better if you are able to spend time on a dyno degreeing them. But if you have the money for that buy the proper stuff Tomei, Kelford, JUN, JWT, HKS etc.
My understanding is BC cams are not suited to the solid lifters in the GTiR head and that the ramp rates are all wrong. As already said better to go with GTiR specific cams. I'm running HKS 264's timed in to HKS's settings which I really like but I have not got anything to compare them to.

Not true!
As for best cams,it depends on your set up and goal.
Jun and kelford are very good

I would't fit them on my car
I have a couple of TOMEI 260degree 12mm lift for sale (AU$550 plus shipping) if interested and they are in Australia.

No and Yes.
No - you can use the standard springs but you won't get the best out of them.
Yes - it is recommended that heavier springs be used to accommodate the 12mm lift.

Dollar for dollar is it better to go with cams than a turbo upgrade?
Mine isn't bigger than yours.. I just like to drive
How many times will we have to replace our turbos vs the cams...
GTi-R, the best ugliest car I've EVER seen/driven. You can make it cool, you can make it fast but you CAN'T make it look pretty.
