    They have them all the time, and 99% of them go without more than one bid.

    If you miss out, get the next pair.

    +rep for calling them by their correct name of cam pulleys - they aren't 'gears'.

    And yes as mentioned above if they are anodised then that will help them last a lot longer, though you will still need to keep an eye on how the anodising lasts. It'll still wear off after a while.

    Oi , wft

    Another 5 days.

    Yeah i don't mine. I have OEM cam pulleys but there rusty. I could clean them up bit they would still be pitted. Advantage of Egay is they get delivered to my door.

    What's that in AUD$ delivered?

    The Ultrex ones are now only $150 (buy now) delivered for the pair. Even more of a bargain than when I bought them, and they're great!

    I'm clarifying whether they are $75 each or for a pair. That will determine which way I go I think.

    So no drams with the Ultrex ones? I have being a cheap skate on things but bang for your buck these beat $200 per HKS pulley

    Don't ask us, ask them. I would say it would be just for one but you could get lucky.

    I've got a set of the new style HKS ones on my 4AGZE that I've had for at least 20,000-30,000 Kms. Half that was without a cover, the other half with a clear cover. They are still going strong and have never slipped.

    Only thing I found was that the stainless button head capscrews are way too soft, and the hex
    stripped after a dozen or so adjustments. Swapped them out for some proper steel capscrews,
    with a bigger hex and no worries about stripping the head.

    Cheers... jondee86

    Stainless as a material isn't too good for anything with a reasonably high stress. You did what I would have done.

    I haven't done this yet, but I do completely agree with doing so, and do plan to do it myself...

    Should only be about $5-10 for 10 high tensile capscrews with washers...
