Not to change the topic from Skunk2 or Toda cams, though have you ever thought about RM M22's All Motor Package? $969.00 for the entire kit which includes (M22 Camshafts, Dual Valve Springs, Ti-Retainers *specs below*)... Camshafts sold alone would be $700.00 shipped.
M22 Camshafts --> 284 duration 12.1mm lift. (Hot Street NA): ($700.00)
BVTEC Dual High Pressure Springs (Speed Stable): ($180.00) 95lbs at 1.320" and 265lbs at 0.850". 12.2mm lift with stock retainers, 13.2mm with RM retainer. (recommended with M22 camshafts and up)
BVTEC Ti-RETAINER SET: ($150.00) 13.2mm lift with RM HP Springs. Lifetime warranty if used with speed stable springs.
RM M22 All-Motor Head Package: $969.00
Might be something to look into at least...
Also, if your deal for $720 falls through, I could match that price on the B16A-B18C 1.6-1.8 DOHC VTEC CAMSHAFTS - SKUNK2 STAGE II. (List price on the s2s2's are $998.82/jobber is $679.20 so I'd make barely nothing after shipping etc..)
* just a side note: If you hadn't noticed I'm a dealer for many manufactures out there so if any of you need price checks just let me know.

depends on your setup.
Skunk2 or Spoon Cams are great for mild setup. More agressive would be Toda or Jun if yo want to hassle of the high maintenance. Depends on you, not necessarily for more power but you're also looking for more reliability.
A lot of ppl I know get toda cams for the wrong reasons and they end up selling them b/c they dont know what they are all about.
Toda Cams are strictly for race use, spec b, and c.

I currently have jun 3's and they are VERY reliable. as a matter of fact i drive the car every day to work and u cant even tell any diffrence than the car when it was bone stock!! I do have the entire jun set up with the dual valve springs, valves, retainers, camgears, and even the jun ecu for it all. It did cost a pretty penny { like 4600 with instalation and tuning} but it is all worth it for the power and dependability. My point is that even though there aggressive, they are dependible and wont affect daily driver at all if used with the right setup. And as far as maintanance there is none i have not touched the car other than changing the clutch since then and its been almost 2 yrs.
