I understand your request, but have you ever seen/used an RB Header? They are by far - one of the best made parts for the Rotary. Well made, well designed, and use of excellent materials. One of the few things that can be said of American parts lately.

The only header you'll find that performs better than RB is an SDJ, made in America. Good luck finding one.

If you want Japanese parts, try Yahoo.jp. That's where some of my parts have come from, but through an intermediary. For the 1st gens, most of the good parts are made here in the USA.

I hate it when I take a rear shock in my short type.

im not bashing on RB at all? i love RB. all i was asking was if there are japanese parts for my fb. i never once said anything bad about RB. i just dont like the us or anything made by them period>

wankel=awesome

Meh..... The stock exhaust parts were japanese........ Or maybe just fab up your own stuff. At least it wont be american.

Only it will..... it says he's from Fargo ND. Maybe I could get something done up for him here, it'd be crap, but not from the usa.

Murrayyy

that would be amazing! idk if any of you have seen re amemiyas sa22c on youtube but i want that setup. i dont think he uses US parts. at least i hope not.

Murrayyy

oh and to answer your question yes i have used RB before. on my fc. it had true dual apexi n1 3inch from the RB header back no presilencer or cats.

why r u so against us made parts for our cars? and what if that sa22c has us made parts on it, then what?

iTrader: (4)

He'd **** bricks. I thought the US made good car parts. It's just that the big three likes to outsource their manufacturing elsewhere so we get crap for cars...

"i just dont like the us or anything made by them period."

I'm wondering when he'll put his behind where his mouth is and move further north. About 200 miles should do it. 'Don't let the border smack you on the *** on your way out.'

And I'm guessing he shouldn't be buying anything through Mazda North America any more, either.

Murrayyy

ok seriously. are you guys gonna cry because im against american made parts?

I don't understand why you are so against installing American made parts on your vehicle? Maybe we should contact the Department of Homeland Security. There could be terroism brewing in Fargo! I've bought parts from this site a few times.

the US can go **** themselves. so can Canada. dont worry im already applying for my visa out of here. i asked a simpole question and a few were nice and answered so thank you. to the other guys, go **** your american parts in the ***. well see what the forum has to say about you guys bashing on me for a question

I suspect he may be buying parts typically from the mega retailer parts outfits which IMO sell inferior parts I'd go to an outfit that supplies the professional installers.

Who set the land speed record with rotarys? Where are they based?

reminds me of an old story, guy comes in the store and wants tune up parts for his honda cap rotor yadda yadda, at the time we carried Beck Arnley for imports, so upon seeing made in Japan on the dist cap box barked "I don't want this crap" ... "it's made in Japan" I had to ask him if he was serious ... Sir you do realize the car was made in Japan right? How long did the old one last?

So ultimatley what is it you are looking for? Quality products or just to be different? Check Aus as well they have vendors, I contacted one and the freight alone for a shoe size box would be $125.00. Do research its not a matter of where it is made but the "quality control of the facility"

Ok I am off my soapbox lol

Murrayyy

thank you for that. that makes alot of sense. i just want my fb to have its japanese sports car inside brought out you know. and everyone(minus the ones that helped) is pmsing because i dont like american parts. i love RacingBeat. there exhausts are amazing. I DO want to be different from everyone else. everyone on here uses some sort of american parts. i just wanted to know if anyone knew any Japanese vendors for exhaust and suspension maybe. thats all i asked and i got bitched at. ive been helped on all my other threads and then when i say one thing against america now i probably wont be helped. this is bullshit if you ask me

dude I wouldn't take it personal, the internet is not the best at conveying the tone of a message or question. If you posed it like you just have that you want to try something different or wanted OE because you were restoring the response would have been better then american parts suck or are crap. I honestly liked seeing the american pride that was displayed

But take this for what you want, I am in the parts biz nearly 30 years and most parts are not made in the USA or Japan anymore. Try India. Mayalsia, China, Pakistan, Hungry, Mexico etc etc. Hence why I referred to "quality control".

With that being said your comments are you have an issue with the USA and are applying for a Visa to leave. How much help would you give someone that responded like that? Will you be able to take your LHD car with you? If not its all a mood point

PMSing? not at all. just asking a question just like u. u'd probably get the same response of ppl asking why u were dead against us made parts if u had a honda and on one of their boards asking the same thing. we would just like to know what bad experience cause u to dislike any automotive part made made here. u can't expect to come on here with such negativity without someone asking why. u could head over to the ausrotary site. they may be of more help since the do have their own aftermarket market. but they do sell to the us. or r u against that too.
