One thing i'd be interested to know that someone else brought up once on cam gears in general...do they have embossed markings, or are they just painted on?

With the HKS ones, they're embossed into the gear itself, so they'll never just rub off etc.

If its in a couple of months I may be interested I would probably prefer the
ones from NZ, purple wont fit in with the rest of the engine bay. I do like the
clear ones best ala polished same as the fidanza clear. Let me know later
this year when you start thinking of it again.

Oh how I wish I could say that.

This may be a place to ask when ready they are selling Fidanza ones for $149 each
and they are in sydney. They dont advertise mazda ones but sure if there was an order for 10 or so they would get them.
