HKS cams are discontinued for the CA though... so what you come across most of the time is what you gotta settle for

they still tell me they have not discontinued CA18 cams they are just out of stock. They have said this for months though. I will keep calling them and if they ever do stock up I will get the word out and try to get a group buy going.

if i get cams, id rather get a 264 custom grind. Maybe have some poncams or hks cams modified so the LSA isnt 120º... more like maybe 110 would sound REALLY sexy on a 4cyl =)
