Stillen adjustable cam gears, unfortunately they are not internet order, you have to call for price and to order.

correct me if im wrong, but ka24de's dont have "cam gears" they have cam sprockets, but they;re not adjustable, they're all inside of the valve-timing cover because we have timing chains instead of belts. im pretty sure because i got the same engine in my 96 and the engine from my 95 (R.I.P.) torn apart in my garage. but i could be wrong.

i have the adjustable cam gears/sprockets right next to me. there are a number of people that use them to adjust their cam timing. they are especially useful to those with turboed 240s to reduce overlap.

Gear, sprockets, things with 'teeth', they all mean the same thing. JWT makes an adjustable pair, the same ones Stillen sells. They are adjusted up to 2.5 degrees IIRC, but setting requires the upper timing cover to be off. Great for turbo applications, or for using an exhaust cam on the intake side.
