I'm still down for gettin one. If someone can ensure its a good unit from a dealer who hasn't had the runout problem that would be great.

Thats asking a little much. Quality control in china is hardly anything to brag about. Im sure if you would like to go to the factory in china your more than welcome if you bring 5000 us dollars to buy

i'm just sayin, it sounds like bone has had bad luck with a dealer, just wondering if someone knows a decent place to buy them from that would be decent odds on gettin a good unit

The last batch were packed in OBX boxes, but not foam like OBX uses. One even had a piece of wood inside the case, like a bunch were shipping inside a wooded crate.

Yeah, I'm kinda leary right now about the "no stamp" units he was selling.


so the guy u get them from ebay are his authentic(stamped)?? I will pay the 400$ as long as i know im getting a real obx and not some bootleg one.

only gen 3.0 were stamped......

ERZ refunded my $345 today......now to find another.

The two places I listed above I've dealt with before.

34 OBX's installed, looking for #35!

This is the thing about cdm parts factories where things get made change etc without dealers knowing so unless you pay someone like Bone to spec out your stuff first its still very hit or miss



Example I from the looks of it can source lsd's that are by all looks/specs obx units but who really knows.

This is when you stop being a ----- bitch and weld the thing together.
