Just saw these on eBay...

That's really wierd...Did anyone know OBX made ITBs?

Edit: After searching further, I found this : http://www.obxracingsports.com...=1456

It looks like the b-series ITBs are only for B16 and ITR heads, no GSR and no LS. At $700.00 for the list price I wonder how they perform and how well thought out/engineered they are.

there is no specification on them anywhere...maybe DonF tested them ehehhe

ITB kits for all the engines B, K, F, H-Series.

 

dont even give the sizes, seems like they have a b16 one and a k20 pictured.

 

design..is in the right direction with the throttle plates for sure..

 

thats an awesome price if they make power.....

 

I'm not familiar w/companies that produce ITBs so I can't visually compare those to anything but I'm certain those are just reverse engineered. Whether or not they work depends on who was copied and if the "engineers" understood what was being copied/its function.

I have no absolute proof of this, just going off of previous products badged w/the OBX name and my manufacturing exposure.

 

in for later

 

looks like a toyota modded throttle lol

 

I don't wonder who they copied lol

OBX:


TODA:


lol they look almost identical, but the OBX castings look alot rougher.

 

OBX & Ebay! A great combination!
When looking for quality components for my all motor builds, OBX is the first manufacturer on my list! Once I have decided on a part to include in a project, Ebay is the first place I look to source it!

 

I just noticed something neat about the OBX ITB's.

It looks like the tops of the velocity stacks can unbolt which would allow you to easily change runner length or more importantly build a sheetmetal manifold around them to be used with a FI application.

On the down side, it also lets OBX build cheap parts with less complicated machining involved.

 

lol without knowing the dimensions, like entry mid , plate and outlet.. etc i wont run it even if it was given to me.. lol it will just save my time by not using it hehehe

 

LOL
I must admit, those look pretty sweet

 

I am a lil impressed also an H22 application damn... we need someone to be the guinea pig maybe an obx distributor will help us out for testing...

 

quick, someone tell a noob they will gain 50whp with them and tell them to report back with what goes wrong!!!

 

I wanna get one and hack it up do fit a D16

 

for anyone that is planning on purchasing a set, I manufacture a an adapter that allows you bolt on a Honda TPS sensor to these Toyota ITB's

I machined a few Honda Throttle Position Sensor Adapters for 4AGE/AE111 Individual throttle bodies. Use your factory Honda 3-wire TPS instead of the Toyota 4 wire sensor. These are identical to the discontinued A-Sport adapters that are nearly impossible to find. They are direct bolt on and you will not have to make any modifications to your factory TPS sensor. The adapters are machined out of billet 6160 aluminum which is guaranteed against corrosion and breaking.

Perfect for Toda ITB kits which utilize over-bored Toyota throttle bodies.

The price is $41.50 shipped USPS . I accept Paypal and USPS Money orders
Thanks for looking

OBX website says:

Precision machined for direct fitment, available in different trumpet and throttle plate sizes.

yea, those are just AE111 'yota throttles with an adapter plate. no biggy.

 

well there may be different sizes but they dont say what they are and theres no options to select different sizes when you try and buy them from the site. i imagine they are just sized differently based on the application you select.

how much are these actually going for anyway?

700 bucks.

i think the good thing is, the results arent a mystery. i am about to search and see how the TODA ITBs do.

 

lol id never thought id see obx itb. also make me wish i had a bseries to give these a whirl on haha

 

performance results at full open can be easily marred by sticking, binding, non sealing throttle plates and poor runner shape/design.

 

I wonder with 1-200 bucks of cleaining up at a machine shop if it's really that bad an idea.

hmm
