Default Obx holy ----..

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 *** intakes. Guess times are changing?

Did you sell out and get a job at OBX? Is this why your pushing they're products. :P

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.

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)

Matt, good point, but if this it the "regular OBX quality" than it won't effect anyone elses prices. That's why velveeta macaroni and cheese doesn't care how much easy mac is, they have the quality.

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.
