Hi guys,

here's issue, im booked in a Chasers to do a 100k service next Tuesday and want to do the cam gears at the same time.

i have 1 HKS intake cam gear but because of the exchange rate (don't even get me started) i cant buy the exhaust gear.

so the question is as stated, can i buy a greedy cam and run one of each?

i spoke to the guys Kudos and they said no problems but i want to make sure?

the cheapest HKS gear i can find in OZ is $275, i got my one for $160 (big difference)

i can get a greedy one for about $160

my other option is to sell my cam gear and buy 2 greedy's but itll be hard to sell it in time i think?

anyone want a NEW HKS cam gear????

If you don't tell the engine it'll never know your dark secret. So long as they are the right diameter, fit the cams, and have the right number of teeth at the right pitch they'll both work fine. So yes, they'll mix and match perfectly. Just Loctite up the adjuster screws once the timing is set, for added insurance.

sell the colourful cam gears and modify the stock ones if your worried about money.

will be half the price

ether way a gear is a gear, same thing

Cost me $15 to modify the stock ones cause i bought new bolts :)

Its only a matter of having access to a lathe

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
