Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic.

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

            If you clutch isn't slipping then don't touch it, and if i needs to be replaced, replace it with OEM spec Exedy replacement. Don't get any of that staged stuff.

            Define jdm?
            wat?

              i mean stuff like that shouldnt matter on ebay (exhaust)
              although its prolly made of cheap metals, it does the job
              not saying how long it will do it for but it does
              same with intakes from there
              you get what you pay for...ive learned.

              as for important parts like a clutch or internal pieces, i would only get trusted name brands you heavily rely on parts like that rather than some exhaust weld breaking and you just having an exhaust leak

                  Whats wrong with your clutch?

                  Its not JDM, nothing JDM about it. But yea the exhaust wont hurt anything, just sound crappy.

                    When it comes to car parts you get what you pay for. Plain and simple.
                    Cheap price = cheap quality
                    Some parts will work on your car but most likely wont last that long. Other parts are just downright dangerous to use like ebay camber kits. Multiple people have had them fail on them while they are driving. I prefer not to trust my life to cheap parts of questionable quality.

                    If you have not guessed by now, safety is a pretty big priority on this forum.

                        Getting an ebay exhaust is fine, i have one myself. I replaced all of the hardware with stainless, and better gaskets though.

                        A clutch is the last thing i would buy off of ebay. If you need it, but dont have much money, i am using one of the cheaper kits you can get at http://www.tasauto.com. Exedy is your best bet though.

                          The problem is that Ebay don't make parts . . .

                          It's getting annoying seeing all these "Ebay header, Ebay turbo, Ebay wing"
                          They aren't made by Ebay, shit they aren't even sold by Ebay.

                          Megan racing products are on Ebay - Does it make them automatically rebadged Ebay products?
                          Those Mugen electronic shocks were on Ebay too.

                          Cheap aftermarket parts are cheap and poorly manufactured.
                          Some of those products just HAPPEN to be for sale on an auction site called Ebay.

                          If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

                            to the bigger question, the problem with ebay parts is the majority of them are blatant copies of products that have been designed and engineered properly and made out of quality products. when they are copied, not only does the company that put it all of the time and money into the R&D not get any of the money for a product it designed, the copies are almost always an inferior product in every respect. they use sub-par materials, sloppy manufacturing techniques, etc.
