Calum122 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Nothing wrong with that? It's just a bit of ally at the end of the day.I could understand if it was a hard wearing component. Doesn't seem bad at all really. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ollieh17 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 How is it shit though? Purely basing on the fact it doesn't have some JDM name on it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Ep hose kits have been around for age's I haven't seen other parts just shit battery clamps. yeah they have been around for ages but a good gap in the market for them at the min imop unless you want to fork out 200 + for roose hoses Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 How is it shit though? Purely basing on the fact it doesn't have some JDM name on it?To me it's just not what the starlets are about. It's not about the name Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I have so much I wanna say about these traders, the crap Chinese fake parts and the use in haribo as a selling point that I've wound myself up thinking about what to put Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 yeah they have been around for ages but a good gap in the market for them at the min imop unless you want to fork out 200 + for roose hosesBuy some oem's you can't go wrong price shouldn't come against reliability..

Whitenoize Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 (edited) I'm not saying price would come before reliability but the fact is your not going to pay 200 + for the same product that you can get for 80 to do the exact same job and be every bit as reliable I'd love to know what a full set of oem hoses would cost I'm sure it would be more than the roose set Edited June 22, 2017 by Whitenoize Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Anyway thanks for posting this I needed a new battery clamp haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Some people aren't about the name and showing off. Want a cheap functioning product... it's a bloody battery clamp ffs lol...have you seen the standard one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Want a cheap functioning product... it's a bloody battery clamp ffs lol...have you seen the standard one it's funny how so many people are offended by a £6 battery clamp lol personally I think anyone coming up with products for starlets even the smallest of things is a good thing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H_D Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I got a bike delivered from Tredz last week and they threw in 2 packs of haribos. I ate the sweets before i took the bike out of the box. I think it was a nice touch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 It's a nice touch if it's unexpected, but the concept falls apart if you're trying to use a 10p pack of gummies as an actual selling point. Popping sweets in the box was obviously a good idea that someone had a couple years back and now everyone else has jumped on the bandwagon, then you end up with this - soon people will just be selling a couple of multipacks with a battery clamp thrown in haha.

Ollieh17 Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 if something is 8.99 just for a battery clamp, or 8.99 for clamp and sweets postage etc all being the same id go for the free sweets. Its not rocket science, or a crime. lets be honest, starlets are pretty cheap cars, cheap parts etc majority of people who modify them are cheap. If you are offended by cheap products go buy a gtr or something Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 JDM yo scene points can away go and fuck off.Plenty good starlet parts are from all over the place, WEPR for example. Ultra racing aswell.Aslong as its not a fake or a replica of anything, still very against that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 If the sweets are a selling point for you then go nuts, I don't even like them so frankly it makes no odds to me either way. As been said, it's a clamp - a piece of metal with a hole in each end doesn't have to have a brand name on it to do its job. Personally I think it looks awful, but I don't doubt it'll do what it's supposed to! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted June 22, 2017 Author Share Posted June 22, 2017 I'd rather run my battery unclamped lol I mean seriously I can't believe you can buy bits like this now. They have been around for a while but I can't see the attraction it's almost as uncool as rota's. Be running ripspeed gearknobs soon just cause there cheap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I do get what your saying and I'd be the same with things like harnesses engine components etc but it's a clamp that holds your battery in it does what it says on the tin so to speak lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
