Well, I bought the UR SS pulley kit about 3 years ago and they ran me about 350 bucks. UR vs. OBX.....quality man. Here's a rule that all buyers need to learn, "You get what you pay for." $200 vs. $50 ebay product... difference, quality of craftsmanship my man. Sure they may look the same and my even perform about the same. But the differences are in the longetivity of the products and tolerances during construction. I've bought a few OBX products in my time and when I compare them to bigger name brands, sure they're cheaper but, cheaper doesn't always equal better. For any budget-minded enthusiast I say buy what you can afford. Are you going to notice differences between your Nismo knock off body kit and my genuine nismo kit? Yes mainly in fitment and appearance. Did I pay about 3 times more? Yes. It's really about what you're willing to settle for when bolting things up to your car. Personally I'd rather get a Greddy turbo kit for 3 grand than buy some guys home made turbo kit for 1500 and have the turbo throw a rod and the manifold crack after just one day at the track.
