OBX & X-force.

Just a quickie...

Are OBX racing sports and X-force exhausts the same thing but sold under different names?

[dsp26]

No...

X force is australian owned company, products are only sold in aust(i think)... and OBX is a american company that sells most of its products on ebay.
Though most their products are actually quite similar..

EDIT: X force is not australian owned apparently.... didnt know they sold products elsewhere though ..

Exactly why I asked this question.

Thanks guys.

Not really similar.. X-Force are Taiwanese/Chinese exhaust parts... was in the x-force thread in one of the sections...

OBX on the other hand are quite huge in the States starting from humble beginnings by copying other companies products and using better material and selling for less (copying meaning they can sell it for cheaper coz no money spent on R&D).. their sooo huge now that they actually win awards at SEMA proudly next to big names like JUN, Skunk2, etc... they sell a multitude of parts from copied chromoly camshafts to chromoly LSDs and dress ups and all sorts of performance and rice parts...

I swear I read somewhere on this forum that someone stated they where the same thing
with a different logo/bagde.

The main reason I asked was OBX sells 3 different styled muffler/tip catbacks for the DA9.

where as X-force sells nothing for the humble DA9.

I was hoping I could order though X-force if you get what I mean.

Any OBX dealers/suppliers in OZ?

Never heard of anyone in Aust stocking OBX parts...X-Force is like the cheapest company most exhaust places stock already...

You could source there parts from US.

BTW.. X-Force doesnt even list 1/3 of there available products on their website (i think)...visit a exhaust shop... and you'll be amazed at all the makes Xforce makes for Honda's

[Jarkz]

thanks.

I'll send X-force an e-mail and see what they say.

The only problem is I bet it's a cannon styled catback which i don't want.

I'm after one that has the rear muffler running across the rear like the OEM style.

I'll be getting OBX stuff in very shortly. Although I won't normally carry exhaust systems I can get one by pre order. Send me a PM or email with exactly what you want and I'll get a price etc for you.

[grumpy rooster]

In mind I have lsd's, final drives, silicone radiator hose kits, single throttle bodies, ITB's. I will slowly bring it in over the next few months but will get stuff in sooner should someone request it.

Let me know what you'd like to see. No point me bringing in stock that no one wants. :)
