Baller bolts communication??? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

TEALSQUEAL · 07-14-2014, 10:09 AM

I ordered a couple bolt sets from baller bolts and even emailed a few times about the parts availability and have had zero response about my order and about the availability. Has anyone else had this experience? Did you ever receive any info or communication when you ordered? Does anyone have a contact number for them?

Thanks in advance!

Cancel the order now. This is very common with them, and you will most likely not be getting what you ordered.

There is a huge thread on here in the review section. Apparently they are a terrible company, get your money back now.

ixfxi · 07-14-2014, 01:07 PM

jsu1012 · 07-14-2014, 01:16 PM

Get it from the dealer - brand new like $9 for the set

maybe those Honda "Downstar" dudes should capitalize on this and expand their market to S-Chassis.

yetijeff · 07-16-2014, 09:52 PM

Pretty sure they went out of business

AFSil80 · 07-16-2014, 09:55 PM

Pretty sure I would never order from a company with this stupid name.

It blows my mind why people go online to buy something of identical quality can be purchased right down the street at Fastenal.

Matej · 07-16-2014, 09:56 PM

Titanium and stainless steel hardware is bad for your car anyway. Look up galvanic corrosion and metal nobility.

godrifttoday · 07-16-2014, 10:29 PM

I sell hardware pm on what 7 u need , I've sold to

i dont think fastenal carries titanium fasteners

i mean, in their defense - baller bolts supplies a product/service, or atleast i think they do. you know, finding metric fasteners isnt always the easiest thing in the world, especially if they are a specific size (and titanium)

correct me if i am wrong, but technically you COULD buy titanium fasteners and then have them dacro coated. nsx uses dacro coated steel fasteners.

but then the bolts wouldnt be "baller" - they'de look like all the other dacro coated fasteners.

jr_ss · 07-17-2014, 04:57 PM

Ixfxi- if you isolate the electrical connection between the two metal, i.e. Insulate them from one another, galvanic corrosion will not occur. Anti sieze will slow the process, but does not eliminate it.

That actually does sound expensive and 'balleur.'
Though Dacro coating still starts wearing off after the bolts are reused about eight times. All coatings eventually deteriorate.
I would rather have the hardware rust and replace it every once in a while as opposed to having some 'baller bolts' accelerate the demise of my chassis and parts.

Jturbo · 10-17-2014, 02:13 PM

good I didn't order shit from them because I have email them 3 times and NO communication....BALLER BOLTS SUCKS!
