I have one new HKS step pro 280 10.7mm intake cam for sale

and

I have a set of used HKS step pro cams and buckets for sale

cam specs are intake 280 10.7mm

exhaust 288 10.7mm

These are the "best of the best". They are the billet hollow cams. much lighter and stronger than the normal cast camshafts.

You can see the welch plug in the back. These are special order and an eternity wait from Japan. They are reduced base circle so you have to use thicker buckets.

The used cams have not done much work, but were installed on an engine previous to when i owned them and were set up with too much spring pressure, and as a result bruised the lobes in some spots.. The lobes are "marked up". They look worse than they are, however let me be clear, they do have some marks on them, and do not LOOK like new. The cams have been in two engines of mine, and have performed faultlessly, with no noise or problems. THEY DO PERFORM WITHOUT PROBLEM.

There is one broken bucket, this happend when a valve spring broke. This has been used in this condition and not caused a problem, however it would be up to the individual engine builder as to wheather they re use this. I MAY be able to organise a new one, at the buyers expense (PROBABLY around $100 - $150)

Sorry for the size of the photos, i just want people to see what they look like. They are not "carved up like the photos make them look, more just "bruised" Also the suface finish in the photos look terrible, it also does not look like that.

The photos make the damage look worse than it actually is.

Inspection welcome, i have nothing to hide......

I would guess with the yen the way it is, 2 new cams and buckets would be $4000??? Correct me if im wrong.....

      How old is too old for tyres?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      If the tyres were fitted when new, I wouldn't expect much over 5 years of use. Especially if the car lives outside full time.  If the tyres had been stored under ideal conditions and are being purchased new, I'd fit a set of already 5 year old tyres if I only expected to get 1 to 2 years of use out of them.  I've purchased many a set of new (but quite old) tyres from St George Tyres when I just needed some decent rear tyres to drift on.  Here is a pretty crazy example, can't say I've ever bought 11 year old tyres from them before though lol.  https://www.stgeorgetyres.com.au/momo-tyres-245-45-17-outrun-m3-official-product-by-momo-italy.html

      Also, a tip for young players  Check the dates on new tyres before they fit them, I always ask this question at the tyre shop, as they have tried to put "new" tyres on one of my cars a few years ago, but the build date was about 3 years old

      Yeah - 4 or 5 years is the limit for decent tyres. Pedestrian grade tyres with 400 TW ratings start out hard and don't start to suffer until they are somewhat older again. But the stickier decent stuff? Nup. My current ADO9s are < 2 yrs old, 17000km in, only have about the minimum 2mm of tread depth left, and they are.....not what they used to be. They are clearly much harder now than when new. Whether that is heat cycles (unlikely, for a road tyre), different compound between top and bottom of tread, or actually aging out (in less than 2 years!!!) is not really able to be discerned. But I'd credit actual aging as being at least part of the cause. I've got an old pair of ~50% worn AD08Rs in the shed that I really need to get rid of. They started feeling waaaay too hard to put back on the car after a couple of years sitting there.

      Personally I wouldn't put tyres over 4 or 5 years old on any of my own cars. Once they go hard the grip characteristics completely change. As per most things it only matters in an accident and that's when you most want them to do their job!

      I'm replacing the front tyres on the E39 tomorrow because one of them has a few gouges out of it. There is so much tread still on them but they're also 9 years old and the rubber is super hard.  This falls within the guidelines of 10 years old that I've read which surprises me given their condition.  I'm curious about whether you guys care about tyre age or just judge the tyre based on condition? How old would you consider too old?
