Been serching through EGay and cos of the plight of the US dollar (well c'mon, it has fek all to do the the 'masterly' way Uncle Tone and old Gordon have handled the economy of recent has it?) there are a few prices that look very nice.

 

So which are better?

 

HKS Adjustable Cam Gears,

GReddy Adjustable Cam Gears

or

AEM Adjustable Cam Gears?

 

They are all working out at around £70 each, so which is the best, and can any traders over here beat that?

JUN JUN or JUN...see Nic for details.

 

But you don't need any. The stock non adjustable are in the best place for timing and they are reasonably light...why add unreliability?

 

If you want something shiny that everyone can see (as you won't be silly and expose the cam gears will you now) then the Greddy pulley kit is pretty...and saves a little weight.

None unless the purpose is bling:) If bling then get any of the ones with the five clamp bolt system. There are reports of the three bolt type (HKS, Unorthodox) slipping off adjustment. I have a set from Titan Motorsports (5 bolt). Both are hidden behind the pully cover and set at 0 deg. Waste of money:rolleyes:

Yeah most with 5 bolts are good - would expect the Titan's to be good.

Well my reasoning behind getting them are I want to end up with a set of HKS cams as well, but with my financies I have to buy a bit and then wait for the next lot.

 

So what your saying is if I dont want to go Bling then leave well alone, but what if I get the HKS cams?

 

Will I need the adjustable ones or not?

Avoid the HKS. Don't know if they fixed it but there were problems with them wearing the timingbelts through

I have just sourced a pair of JUN pulleys and HKS cam for Ian C, the JUN pulleys look very good quality.

 

BTW the HK$ is pegged to the US$ so same great exchange rate from here ;)
