how are they quality wise, and do they do as they claim? any issues with them

I've wondered about that as well. Also there are these ones http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/mitsubishi/engines/auction-517764508.htm

I've got a set of the vr4 ones, but haven't run them yet. Adam has I think.

[Adam.Findlay]

yeah i have the exact same ones (although if memory serves i bought them from a different trademe user)
they work fine even with the increased clearances of the cam grind. jeremy at evo parts rates them too which is why i decided on them.

Yay... I see some lifter changes in the future :)

[scott.mohekey]

It's probably worth mentioning that the new ones WILL make a lot of noise for a start.

[Adam.Findlay]

yes my car sounder like the charriot from hell on first startup. until the air bled out.
i prefer not to bleed the lifters manually as if you overfill them they could hold a valve open

[scott.mohekey]

That's a very good point.

So how long until they quieten down more or less? Scott, are you going to be doing anything with your set of lifters?

Ive got some of these ready to go in. Any good?

Yeah, I'm putting a VR4 engine back together for mine with new seals etc and the cams. I have some ported heads that only need a wee bit more work on them though that I could sell ;)
