if it is the valve seals you'd see blue smoke coming out the exhaust.
i would do a valve adjustment, that should quiet it down some. good luck

I agree with the valve adjustment. That happened on my 94 LS. It cost like 60 bucks, I think, for ACURA to do it. I didnt know how at the time.

gsrs are known for loud ticking injectors. do a valve lash adjustment and if the sound is still there, see if it is the injectors. it's not a problem if it is.
