• Failure to follow these rules may result in your threads being locked, deleted, or moved. Depending on the severity of your actions, or frequency of your actions, your user account could be suspended or banned. These rules are to help protect both buyer and seller.


    1. CONSOLIDATE all of your for sale items into ONE thread only. This means there will be NO making multiple sales threads for different items regardless if the parts are related or not.

    2. PRICE IS REQUIRED. We do not permit ads without an asking price for each item. "Best Offer" is not an allowable substitute for posting a price. You may ask for $1 but a price must be listed regardless. If a price is not listed with in the first 24 hours of making your sale thread IT WILL BE LOCKED or DELETED. Once a price is listed a bidding war is not permitted. If the seller gets an offer that meets his asking price, the seller should honor the asking price and sell for that amount.

    3. EBAY LINKS AND OTHER LINKS. We allow links to ebay ads, but you MUST have a buy-it-now price posted, or an asking price to stop the auction in your ad here (Not just in the link). If it is from another site or from here, do not use a link but post the full text instead with pictures if you have them listed. If a BIN price is not posted, then your thread will be DELETED.

    4. CITY / STATE are required info for each ad. Information must be posted in the first post of thread, NO EXCEPTIONS. Buyers and sellers reserve the rights to privately ask for full contact information on any purchase or sale. 24 hour notice will be given, if you do not comply your post will be DELETED.

    5. NO TWO PARTY SALES. This means no more "I'm selling for a friend" posts and will be deleted immediately with no notice. Seller assumes all responsibility of anything they post for sale.

    6. NO FEELER THREADS. You are either selling it or you aren’t selling it.

    7. POST COUNT AND/OR TIME LIMIT. We are requesting that you spend some time with us before you start a For Sale thread. A pre-determined minimum number of posts will be required or 1 year since creating the account + an intro thread (just so we know you aren’t the Prince of Africa). Any for sale thread posted out of the For Sale section to circumvent the rules will result in being deleted. Those who do meet the criteria and post outside the section will have their thread moved, constant violation of this will result in an infraction.

    8. NO BUMPING OR TT’ing YOUR THREAD MORE THAN ONCE IN 48 HOURS. Don’t worry your thread will still be a bold read until a user reads it and if people are really interested they will let you know. Post warning will be issued if in violation and on the 3rd warning, the thread will just be locked.

    9. NO THREAD DUMPING OR I DON’T LIKE YOUR PRICE. Don’t post in a person’s thread just to tell them they are too high, either move along and say nothing or throw an offer to them. The person can sell it at whatever price they think someone is willing to pay. Offenders will be issued a warning, if it is a constant issue then an infraction will be issued.

    10. KEEP YOUR THREAD UP TO DATE. This is really for your benefit, so you don’t get 10 PMs asking if you still have it when you already sold it.

    11. NO WEAPONS. As Admins we have determined that no weapons will be allowed to be sold, this includes knives, guns and anything else deemed a weapon (even if its a wall hanger only). We ask that if you want to sell these items you seek out the appropriate websites elsewhere to do so.

    12. Pictures are REQUIRED. Pictures of all items for sale. This is to help BOTH seller and buyer. As a seller it is MUCH easier to sell something if you have pictures of it. As a buyer you feel better seeing exactly what you are buying. Pictures should contain the item/s for sale and a sign of some kind that has your username on it. 24 hour notice will be given, if you do not comply your post will be DELETED.

    FRAUD & RISK. Buy and Sell at your own risk. Grand Prix Forums and its staff are not responsible if someone rips you off or doesn't send parts out in a timely manner. This classifieds section is a free service for the community, and it is YOUR responsibility to handle all transactions in a low-risk method. DO NOT contact us if there is a dispute between you and someone else, we are NOT INVOLVED. You can help minimize fraud risk by doing these suggestions:

    Pay using PAYPAL, using a credit card. This way, if a part does not arrive, you can do a charge back through your credit card company. If you gift it, then you have no recourse to get your money back when things fall through. Pay the 3% and have the buyer protection. Using someone else's paypal and gifting to pay for goods is violating Paypal's Terms of Service.



    Always ask for full name, residential address, phone numbers of both buyers and sellers. An honest seller should have no problem disclosing this info to you privately.


    Shipping things C.O.D. is risky. Try to use UPS or Fedex, so that you can track shipments. Have someone sign for it if it is expensive.


    Ask for references from other members, hopefully from other members who have been registered for longer than one year and are active here.


    Use your gut feeling. If something seems too good to be true, or a seller/buyer seems a little shady, don't take the risk.

    TIPS:
    -Post pictures: with mobile phones these days and auto uploads, it’s not even really hard anymore. Have it automatically drop in Photobucket, grab the Img tag link and paste it in.

    -Give good contact information if you aren’t going to be on here a lot.

    -If you are going to disappear for an extended time (vacation, time in jail, what have you), then give us a quick note that you aren’t going to be around. People will trust you a little more.

    -Look around and gauge your price with other items. Just cause you bought it for $1000, doesn’t mean it’s now worth $1,200 or even the original $1,000. You are free to ask what ever you want, but an item that is priced right will sell quicker.
  • The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

I know a few people with OBX's and they were able to fabricate it to fit.
 
hell, they might just fit, looks like obx's with diff bolts to hide the fact theyre obx's...

Those are the same damn headers.
 
yes u can fabricate the obx's to fit, but thats just extra money/ time. I would make DNA pay to fix them if they don't work.

Good luck trying. The people I know who fabricated it just hit the pipes with a hammer etc and knocked them in to fit and someone even chipped away at some part of the casing of the tranny to get by and they fit like a charm. There was no harm done and they worked. I could be wrong about chipping away at tranny I think that is what they chipped away at (some piece near tranny).
 
ur on crack, they are the same thing.

Well, if you don't mind chipping away at the tranny case, then you just got a great deal on some headers LOL!

If you guys get the headers and they fit great and there are no problems, well then .. good for you.. you jsut got a great deal on some headers. BUT I don't think that is going to be the case. I would be pissed if i was led to believe that i was getting the ssac headers and actually ended up getting obx crap pacesetter knockoffs. Hell, someone was making fun of the pacesetters in this thread already! hahaha man u guys really should do something about this.

Like I said I'm unsure of what they did exactly but it fit and they've had no issues at all and they fit perfect. Always plan to spend more money then the part your buying when modding a car. If you can't afford to have your headers fabricated to fit or can't do them yourself you shouldn't be putting headers on your car to begin with.
 
The picture in the e-mail was.

which look like pacesetter knockoffs. If we get these they are going right back, since I dont want to have to cut and weld these things, and we were all told they would be ssac knockoffs.
 


use the search button on here, there's a link for "leak-free pacesetters." It is do-able but I'm glad I didn't get in on this. If anything i may just buy the real SSAC's now.
 
Killa, I hope people take this as a lesson... when you organize things, and you tell people who worry "breath and relax brother let me handle this ok", and crap like this happens... Like you tell everyone they are getting X, and then after everyone pays YOU, then we find out that we are getting Y...

And when I said it was fishy that you were asking everyone to send you money as a GIFT, it gave them no recourse when you end up giving them somethign other than what they ordered.

I hope everyone gets their ****, and it works like a charm, otherwise, Id call paypal and have them do a reversal since we are not getting what we ordered.

Killa, in the future, use this as an example, dont be "the man"... if everyone ends up canceling their payment to you for sending the wrong parts, you would lose the money, you would be liable for the return shipping fees, and then you would ahve to fight them for the money.

These are 304 stainless. They are obx headers, or whatever knockoff, they are identical to the obx ones. They look as if they may have fixed the crossover, looks different, also it includes band clamps in which my obx ones did not. Other than the crossover, looks like they might seal better and dont have the crappy u bend downpipe. You guys need to stop speculating and just wait for them to come in. IMO these are better then the first speed daddy headers you were getting anyways. Just my .02.
 
its is not my fault...you think i knew from the start these were knock off pace setters..no i didnt..but even if i knew they were i would still get them...any who dont try to dog on me bout this shlt. i did my job..as far as which headers we get that and if they fit that is up to DNA...DNA has everyones money now..not me..everyone who order headers in the group buy.."should" of recieve a e mail from him...in the email it has his phone number so take it up with him...not me..i did my part n that was to get a group buy..
 
Well put killa, from the get go everyone assumed that we were getting the ssac knock-off's. Thanks mini, i was almost starting to regret buying these. But killa thanks for doing your job.
