Default are these ssauto s**t under another name

Hi,

Just looking on ebay and found these,

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/88-00...26751527QQrdZ1

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Compl...25063973QQrdZ1

and was wondering if they were the ss auto chrome "stuff" that is all over the place just under more different names.

Cheers

easiest way to id ssauto crap from others is that they take their pics of the parts on either colored blankets or tarpolian mats out in the open. both the kits you posted do not look to be ssautocrap unless they recently started selling cast manifolds with their kits.

I'm quite sure now that they maybe the same quality, I reckon its time to do the homemade route and piece together my own kit, are cast manifolds any good or will I be fine with the hf manifold setup.

here's another dodgy kit

its so hard to tell, but I thinks it just the cast manifold they have changed to, maybe to thrown us of the scent.

*** Jockys, they should have all the blown motors catapulted at their ****ty office until completely demolished.

Cheers for the help

Here's a pic of my new civic after my black one decided to all go wrong all at once, and yes I've pranged my new one bad, but soon will get all back into good shape.

building a kit is by far the best route. you can pick and choose the parts per your goals. you will be fine with an hf manifold but it really depends on your power goals. a cast mani is a very good mani since they tend to last longer. but they do not flow nearly as well as a tubular mani.
