    Awesome product and super well thought out ! Man PRP is absolutely top notch stuff. Funny how people don’t realize how crucial slotted cam gears are and how it is a MUST, when dialling in crank to cam position. With proper belt defection. Your PRP engineering is like the finely made factory Ducati tooling only better ! Thank you for the love you put into your products fit/finish and it’s beautiful quality 🤘🏼👊🏻

    If you are tuning an old engine without cam phasing, adjustable gears are great! Do remember to properly torque the adjustment bolts and loctite them once adjusted. Also always check fit before running em. I've seen em lopsided and with gear grooves cut too shallow. Also don't trust the timing marks, degree them yourself. I'm just glad you can buy em for most cars now, I used to have to make em myself out of 2 OEM gears.

    While convenient (and I use them on my CA18 and SR20,) there is always a chance they'll slip. Having solid pullies with multiple keyways or the camshaft drilled with multiple dowel pin holes gives the same adjustability, but removes the chance of slippage. Going forward I'll be having my cams drilled with multiple dowels, as I've done for my KA24DE and just use OEM gears. Why not have cam gears exposed: Gravel traps... Gravel traps... (keep the shroud's on ;) )

    Pass on PRP products. Selling other's stuff to then make it and sell it as their own ( spline drive and alternator LS1 (kind of)), many many revision to parts, and crappy anodizing. Their aluminum parts look like they are machined from cheap Chinese Aluminum.. I ain't saying Made in Australia is bad since I've had great RB stuff from other made in Australia companies. I stick to smaller companies specializing in an area of Engine/car and not an assortment of parts. Never been let down. .. Better quality... If you think PRP is the best, you're not looking hard enough.
