Yeah it's a JDM valve cover, I got the removed, added the Honda Motors Co. and shrunk the VTEC and enlarged the DOHC!

it's not JDM at all. it's USDM GSR. he didn't have the "H" removed; it was never there.

I think it could be a simple mistake on the part of the seller. He could have got a JDM b16 or what ever and just assumed it was the origanal valve cover. The Valve cover I got with my JDM b16 head is a USDM cover.

BUT WHO CARES?!?!?!?! Its not like the JDM valve cover is better or worse than the USDM. In my opinion a valve corver is a valve cover (except the JUN and Mugen)!

it's not the point about which is better...

it's just that the seller is trying to sell a USDM valve cover but claim it to be a JDM one...
