Not sure yet.

I have to save the funds to buy what looks like ALOT of cam gears judging by the response from this thread.

Or i can start taking payments from people which means some people will be waiting a long time.

Not sure how to go about it.

At the moment im just saving the cash to buy all of them myself.

i got the money right now.

you can start to collect these guys, i have n probs with it.

the faster the better.

Nytsky pls PM me the details.

cheers mate.

Dave ill take a set when you get them. RB26 of course. Ill send you the money over the next few weeks to take the stress off your bank account

EDIT: Actually, 2 sets thanks.

so ur gonna bulk buy them yourself, then ship them to everyone at the same time? im still aquiring a few other things (timing belt etc) to put in with my cams so not in a hurry at the moment, but yeah even if you could pm a rough date that would be appreciated.

cheers mate.

Got some bad news guys.

The supplier was claiming they produced Tomei cam gears. But when i placed the order they then told me they were copies, hence the cheap price.

However i have been assured that the cam gears are made form the same material and anodised the same so the quality is still very good.

Two of my friends have these same cam gears in their GTRs and have produced the same gains and would not have picked them to be copies.

They also produce about 80% of all the other cam gears on the market and have had not one failure.

At the end of the day there is no real difference or any more gains to be had out of the Tomei versions anyway.

If you are still keen on them let me know and ill revise the order.

Im still ordering ones for mine and other friends vehicles.

CHEERS

The pic that was supplied. The cam gear was red, grey teeth and no logo.

However the design of the actual gear looks the same.

I have been told if i send them a sample they will match it. I just dont know the legality side of copying a name brand logo.

Either way im going to order 20 sets for a group buy. They will perform the same as any other cam gear out there so im not worried.

Half the price of a genuine item :(

    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
