ok so i bent some valves in the head on my 2000 GS-R and now i want to replace the valves ,springs, and the retainers. Ive been pricing the skunk 2 tuner series valve train and the supertech valve train.......now the supertech stuff is a lil easer on the wallet but is it good stuff?? id like to hear from people that have actualy used thes products....thanks

 

the motor is stock and will never be reved past 9k......will be running a mild cam

 

Supertech is good stuff, you won't be dissapointed.

Supertech

 

supertech good price good parts

 

You can't go wrong with Supertech.

 

I really like the skunk2 Pro Series, but I also haven't used SuperTech. You might want to use whatever matches your cams, for warranty replacement issues if something does break.

Also, skunk2 is disco'ing the tuner series last I knew, when I talked to my Skunk2 rep.

 

both are great

 

Supertech. Tested to be compatable with atleast S2 Pro2's and a bit cheaper.

 

u guys made up my mind....supertech it is......thanx

 

we sell, install and run supertech in all our heads. reasonably priced to

 

I've had supertech valvesprings and retainers for 26,000 miles. Still good.

 

supertech FTW!

 

supertech makes great valvetrain kits...just be sure to watch out which kit you get
your rocker assemblies will thank you...

care to go into detail with that.....

 

What about Supertech Springs and Retainers and OEM ITR Valves?
Not sure if this saves any money but the OEM valve are pretty good.

 

its quite simple really stiff springs will pound away @ your precious valvetrain...

 

Last time I checked, supertech only made one set of springs available for the B-series...and I'm not quite sure why your rockers would have any trouble with them, unless their installed height means you need to modify the rockers.
And yes, a good alternative is to keep the OEM valves. The only reasons to change the valves is really to shape combustion events or to give yourself a little lighter intake valve... or if you need the insurance with a turbo and use SS valves... OR if you've bent some.


PS- crazy cam lobe ramps will kill valve seats...not necessarily the springs alone.

 

they do make 2 different sets. i think they ar different seat pressures. one is a good bit heavier and has a bit more max lift.
maybe one of the head experts will chime in to set the record straight

 

Supertech FTW!

 

SPR-H1002D is 70lbs@ 1.32" and 190lbs @ .472"

SPR-H100DR is 85lbs@ 1.32" and 266 @ .552"

 

What kind of setup would you use on either one? Gonna order me a set and need to know which one to get. thanks
