Hey guys... I was just about to order my JUN cam gears and I just found out that they are on backorder and could take up to 2-3months!!! I cant do that. So I thought that my second best choice is the Skunk2 Cam Gears? Any opinions on this matter?

then either order some toda cam gears or some hks cam gears like what denise had on her motors. same quality as the juns and far better than the skunk2s imho.

uhhhh....Toda????? uhhhhh......Spoon???? HKS too.. Any of those would be a better choice than the Skunk2s becuase they all use the factory cam gear with an adjustable plate over it for the best quality. Skunk2s also go up to 10deg. advance where if it slips it could do some serious damage...Todas on the other hand have only 5deg. of advance/retard which is more than enough.

Dont know exactly how many of you have actually inspected the skunk2 cam gears from what I hear there were 2 batches the first wasnt too good and the second witch I have opbserved are very nice top notch quality and construction VERY VERY VERY light and the material isnt a slick material so tightening it down some with locktite you shouldnt have any problems with them slipping.
