    Sorry boss the Stage 2 Cam shaft is like 400 but you have to get teh valve spring upgrade which is another 135. So you end up spending about $550 shipped. the Cam Gear is about another 150. you can get AEM or the Version from RPW I can't remember the name I have the AEM gear

    Dont forget you have to get the retainers as well, when you change the springs...

    eBay has a bunch of cam gears for the 4g64 for $60, I think they are made by BOMZ, but they dont look too bad...

    If you guys really want to get in contact with RPW (Dave Thomas, owner) you can send him a PM over at Club3G. His username is 'Mitsiman' and he always responds within a few days. If you are interested in ordering/pricing information contact RPW's newest US distributor:

    http://www.norcal-performance.com/

    Personally, I would go through NorCal Performance rather then Vision Imports. Cliff at NorCal has tons of experience with the 4G64 and I have heard that the staff at Vision is rather immature and unprofessional.

    Although I have nothing bad to say about Norcal Alot of members discourage oing buisness with them that's why I said Vision. Cliff and tim are really good guys and i order from tehm but some members keep in the Negative. But Yeah Norcal is a new RPW dealer.

    They hold the valve inside the valve spring. They look like little round discs, maybe about 1.5 times the size of a quarter
