OK, today i was very happy because my CTR cams were supposed to come in. As soon as i got home i opened the package immediately and to my disappointment i believe that i have been scammed.

The intake cam doesn't have the double ring at the end, which is what i always thought was a definite way to tell if you have an authentic Civic Type R cam.

Wondering if you guys have a good picture of the CTR cams, real close up so i can be sure these aren't the ones i purchased, i have to put in a claim soon so i want to get this done with. If you want i can post pictures of these cams, sure wish they put model numbers on these things

great see that is what i was lookin for, yup looks like this guy sent me the ITR cams and not the CTR Cams, wouldn't be such a big deal except for the fact that CTR cams are usually more expensive, i'll get my money back and get the real CTR cams
