Why would it be time to replace your lifters? Are you racing the car seriously hardcore?

thw supertechs are nice, but the factory units are great and are a single piece design. also, the stock lifters are significantly more cost effective than the supertechs.

It's highly unlikly that your lifters are damaged, more likely the lash setting is incorrect.
As has been explained to you on the other post you started, the VQ does not have hydraulic lifters & the noise from too wide a lash setting will not be much quieter ( if any ) when hot.
Get a proper diagnostic opinion of your noise
