Obx holy shit..
I was unaware OBX was getting into the high end of aftermarket parts?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7913900440 Cams? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7913900468 LSD? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7913772699 VG35 Stainless Downpipes? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7913900489 Stainless turbo manifolds for the RSX (ones that actually look good) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7914562031 Monster Intercoolers for 275? Curious on some of the quality on this stuff, prices are really good and the stuff actually looks pretty good too. When I think OBX I think of tail lights and cheap ass intakes. Guess times are changing? JEff |
Re:Obx holy shit..
Did you sell out and get a job at OBX? Is this why your pushing they're products. :P

Re:Obx holy shit..

Re:Obx holy shit..
LOCKED
haha jk.. i dunno if i'd trust ANYTHING, especially something you can't see (Cams)... vrrrom, vrrrrom SNAP. lol. |
Re:Obx holy shit..
Like I've said before... I bought my OBX SS headers two years ago before I was turbo... Maybe three years now -- and they did me right, especially for 129$ shipped.
I'm about to try out the OBX LSD- and as much as everyone might think they are ---- or hate them, they are doing the import world a favor -- by bringing us the same sort of parts as other companies for much less -- and by supporting them, you take buisness from the expensive companies -- enough support for these lower price products and everyone is forced to drop their prices to keep any buisness. Good old competition. Did you see what happened with eagle rods? at first, nobody trusted them for 300$ a set -- now everyone uses them. Matt |
Re:Obx holy shit..
damn i may try out that lsd also
|
Re:Obx holy shit..
are u all sure that stuff is made by obx..because i went to their site and all i saw were exhausts :-\
|
Re:Obx holy shit..
yeah i got an adjustable FPR to complement my walbro 255lph pump... for some reason the stupid FPR wouldnt adjust below 65 psi fuel pressure... that was even running the return line right into a gas can (i thought my return might have been too small.. that wasnt it) so i tried it and it still wouldnt adjust below 65 psi (and yes it was setup correctly)

Re:Obx holy shit..
since it's a helical LSD I would say it is worth a try, if it were a clutch or viscous style LSD I'd laugh if you put it on your car.
how much does a decent LSD for an old american piece of ---- cost? not too much. I wouldn't jump on it and put it in my racecar. but I think it is worth testing. if only they made a D-series one. |
Re:Obx holy shit..
that OBX manifold sucks cock, plus i had an obx header and two of the manifold bolts went in a little sideways. DO NOT BUY THAT ABSOLUTE PIECE OF ------- ----! read below click on the link

Re:Obx holy shit..
i saw that ---- the other day cruisin ebay and was like holy ----! ---- it, i would try the lsd at least, i don't know about the cams, i'd wait until enough people tried them and had some feedback.

Re:Obx holy shit..
I was thinking about buying the intercooler. The weld thing can be fixed easily. Just put more weld on there.

Re:Obx holy shit..
I think anything will crack regardless of price or who made it. It's all in how you abuse it. I had a DC Sports stainless T3 manifold that cracked while the old owner had it. I had it fixed and it never cracked for me after 2 years of use. But I never drive my ---- either.

Re:Obx holy shit..
DC sports did make turbo manifolds a while ago.. and they stopped for the same reason SS-Autochrome should :-\
