My gf is buying me cam gears for Valentines day and I want to know what the best cam gears are.


I have a b16 with ITR cams with bolt ons.

 

tried searching?

 

I love my SRR's....cheap and effectice.

all you really need to do is to add the line up marks for the sides of the cam gears...and they're perfect!

Yeah, but I want opinions from people now, not from 2 yrs ago. On top of that, 95% of the results were from the classifieds.

not all cam gears are created equal

call up the manufactures and ask them about their designs. or ask some more questions when you buy them from a shop.

 

STR are good

Stock,

 

WHAT EVER YOU CAN ADJUST AND HAS MARKINGS,NO NEED FOR EXPENSIVE ONES

 

STR works great for me

 

skunk2, str, or ge.

 

My friend runs an LS/VTEC about 12.1 compression and JUN3s etc etc... But he runs Hayame cam gears and always stay perfect no slip what so ever.. Cheap and effective as well as str great gears...

 

ST Corsa or the newer generation Spoon/Toda cam gears.
a lot of people said the skunk2's are great but are a little off TDC

Looks like a nightmare. That's why I am having a professional install everything!!!

 

SKUNK2 CAM GEARS ARE 6 BOLT AND VERY PRETTY,,,,,DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THEM

 

JG

 

It's an easy project until you get careless or clumsy...lol

 

Just from what I hear, and from actually, what I think would be more reliable, and for better tuning, would be Skunk2 or JG Edelbrock. Because of their 6point adjustments. It just seem's like to me you would be able to tune more then you would be able too, with a 3 or 4 point Cam gear. Just a thought though.

 

well you mean the marks on the cam gears?

technically when you tune the cams on a dyno with cam gears, you just adjust them a degree at a time, or basically the smallest advancement as possible.

st corsa and a golden eagle offer markings on their cam gears that are easy to tell how much teh cam gear is advanced or retarded.

if anything, the jg is hard to tell, compared to the st corsa

edit:
what do you mean by 3,4 point adjustment versus 6 point adjustment

 

im goin with the Skunk2 ...never heard of them slipping and they are 6 bolt

 

All cam gears are not created equal..

Teeth are made of different materials, and newer designs allow you to lock in your settings so won't slip.

I have ST corsa

 

Here you have ur AEM 3 Point adjustment screws:



And here you have ur 6 point adjustment screws:
