I'm talking about the JDM ones with the lithium-dioxide coating on the bottom. They are way lighter than the USDM ones. You guys should get with it.

I'm constantly breaking my valvecaps, so i think i'd rather go with the originals, they may be a bit heavier than the rotas, but they are way stonger. Plus people know you got cash. You know....cause they have writin' on them n'****.

I tried a few of these..

first I had the Model 1330074b-9, but had some clearance problem with the tire flies.

so I opted for the Model 1330074a-5, which was a stage colder, but with the added weight it was redundent.

so I went with Model 1330074a-6. which worked well for 3 month, but the damn thing kept detonating if you don't change them out every 2 months or so...

well, i'm thinking about changing my superbee LT-4's for the Model 1330074a-6, as i really dont like the smell of mustard. Hopefully the -6's won't detonate where i'm because of the altitude, but worst come to worst i can take them to S-squared for a reflash. Maybe get a CA 160 map on them or somthing.
