Default B16A (JDM) cams vs B18C (JDM GSR) cams

What is really the difference between these 2?
From what i've researched
B16A (JDM) Intake valve lift = 10.6mm / Exhaust valve lift = 9.4mm
B18C JDM GSR) Intake valve lift = 10.6mm / Exhause valve lift = 9.4mm
Whats the Diff?
Just wondering if i should spend the money for GSR cams over my Stock b16a cams?
If i'm missing something on the Intake and Exhaust lift plz enlighten me

Thanks in Advance!

if you're looking for stock cams, get CTR cams. CTR intake cam has larger lobes/valve lift than ITR. CTR and ITR exhaust cams are the same i believe, correct me if im wrong.

You will need ctr pistons to raise the cr, buy doing this you will overbore by .25mm, to raise the cr to over 11.
