does anyone have opinions, or warnings about using OBX products? i have a full OBX exhaust...but they have a few more parts i was considering for my b16...cams, cam gears, valve cover, valves, and springs...and possibly an intake mani&TB....(i get them for pretty cheap through my work DISCOUNT TIRE CO.)

stay away. stay far far away. actually there cam gears are not that bad.

 

Cam gears - ok
Skunk2 copy IM - ok
Sheetmetal IM - No IACV hookup, injectors leak (Yeah, I tried one, who cares)
Turbo manifolds - ok with low boost
LSD - some are ok, but others have stuck axles
Valve cover - some leak, some are ok
Valves/Springs - Haven't found anyone daring enough to try.
Exhaust - ok

 

i haven't been able to find anyone local that sells OBX.

i still dont' trust them enough to put it in my engine, and spin it 8K.. but i don't have a problem putting one of they're mufflers on.

not much help on they're website either.

i might be calling discount tire soon.

 

OBX headers are ****, I have one and I hate it.

 

Do your best and stop buying their products now. A kid brought his car into our shop a while back with a B16 boosted at 6psi with a OBX turbo manifold, the thing was only a few months old and had more cracks then it did welds. Worst thing I have ever seen in my life. And their customer service sucks *** because only about 2 of them speak decent english. Don't waste your money on their ****.

 

yeh, their service DOES suck...we are a direct distributor for them, and Nippon wheels...and its impossible to understand them, they don't know ANYTHING about hondas, and they won't let you return stuff either...im real happy with the exhaust... but im going to go ahead and stay the hell away from the internals....thanks guys.xxx.

 

dont ever want to try one on my car. But do as you please

 

I havent heard anything good about OBX so Im staying away as well

 

anyone have their silicone radiator hoses? any good?
