Supertech vs. OEM valve stem seals

[Nerf]

I'm gonna be getting some work done to my s15 sr20 head and I came across Supertech's valve stem seals for $12.88 as opposed to the Nissan OEM ones for $79.20. Has anyone run the Supertech ones, and are there any advantages or disadvantages to them?

Wait, what?

OEM valve stem seals are $72.90????

Is this an S15 thing? I just put valve steam seals on my S13 SR a little while ago and it was nowhere near that much

They're expensive out of the package.

$65 from Phase2 (http://www.phase2motortrend.com/oems1srvasts.html)

I'm sure they work well. Mazworx uses them if that's any help.

That's actually pretty reassuring and good to know. Who else has info to contribute? I know I'm not the only person on these forums that's noticed these seals!

supertech valve seals are fine just as good as oem or maybe better in my eye, not to worry abou them! i installed them in my SR 3-4months ago cause my exhaust was smoking a little supertech seals fixed her up, there made out of the same material and there way cheaper! got mine for somewhere around $20 from frsport.
