I was in same situation contemplating which brand of cams to go with. I decided to go with HKS straight 272's. Paid 540 for them. I figured there are buddy club that is supposed to be made by tomei and cost $420 and real tomei cost almost 750 per pair something wasn't right. Thought to myself maybe Tomei produced a cheap cams for buddy club....

So HKS for that piece of mine that I have cams that thousands other 4g63 has and it's been proven!

They have the same specs from what I understand. The HKS units look much nicer the lobes are polished and very smooth.

Buddy Club's 272's are awesome. I had them put in and love every minute of it. Can't go wrong with them. Same specs, lower price. No brainer......
