Hi,

You have 2 options for Beams Cams.

1. Having your original cams reground. The only company that I know of which has experience with Beams cams, is brashboy.net in Japan. These will probably cost you in the $600 - $800 dollar area. You will also have a big chance of you cams blowing up on you. Regrounds are notorious for failing after an x amount of miles. Why people trust them, I don't know.

2. Glenn in Australia has custom cams that you can purchase from him. They are billet cams and are the only aftermarket choice. If you want to talk to him more about them, them, his mr2.com nickname is celica_ra45. Fair warning, custom parts are not cheap.

then there is the other option, why do you need custom cams? Our cams are variable timing which mean they are constantly moving. Custom cams will not really gain much power if thats what your looking. They will help with full engine builds, but for the cost, I don't see the benefit. Thats just my opinion.

also, sign up in the Beams owners list on top of the beams page.
