Just to make things clear, I am looking for experience with these gears. I already know the "risk" of things on ebay. I have been around the block with this stuff. I am not one to go cheap with things as well. I am looking for quality parts. I have not heard of this company and would like to get some feedback on them. I like the look of these gears more than Fidanza or AEM. They look like they are modeled after the HKS gears so they may be a cheap knockoff. Any thoughts are welcomed. I just don't want the typical "Ebay stuff is crap".:tease:

. I just don't want the typical "Ebay stuff is crap".:tease: Or you get what you pay for.ROFL Why take a chance with something cheap. I would recommend using the stock cam gears untill you save up enough to buy a good set of cam gears. I say better safe than sorry. Thanks oj

I fully agree, but there is a possibility that these are quality cam gears and they just don't mark things up to crazy amounts like HKS just because they can. The name isn't everything. Ebay, is not the only place I have seen these gears. Prostreet is just one of the online shops that sell them, there were others when I searched. My stock gear is out of round a little bit. I have the car down to change out a turbo and decided I would swap the gears as well before I start it back up. This is the second time I have had a stock gear wobble. So, I'm hoping someone is running these and can give me an idea of the quality.:dsm:
 
They could be good Cam gears, but I wouldn't want to risk it. If those mess up on you man, it can cause some damage.
 
The price is right. As for quality, I have absolutely no clue. At that price though, it might almost be worth buying them and just inspecting them a lot until you're confident.
 
From previous experience, You get what you pay for. I love my DSM but seriously, you cant go the cheap route with these cars because there can be BAD consequences.
