what the difference between this two? I know the jdm are original from the type s and the blue from the euro accord and go for about between $190-200 shipped. why is it that the obx's are selling for about half the jdms price if they look identical or aren't they? does obx builds their own covers or are they refurbished oem h22 covers that they collect and paint? Is it worth it?

 

Cause it's OBX. They're known for cheap parts. I personally don't have a problem with their simple things like intakes and headers (or valve covers), but I would never use OBX internals (like their LSD). Their iridium plugs seem to be holding up though. Got like 5k on them and the gap is still the same as it was when I put them in

that's because the longevity of a plug has nothing to do with gap. it's the conductivity of the plug and the durability of the electrode...

 

No. OBX makes their own valve covers.

I believe they were told to take the VTEC off the valve covers beause of a copyright infringement.

 

oh no wonder they were selling them on ebay with them looking like they were missing something and when they took them off they still looked bad, but people are still selling the ones that still have VTEC on them though
